The Healing Power of Flax: How Nature's Richest Source of Omega-3 Fatty Acids Can Help to Heal, Prevent and ...5 reviews
Herb Joiner-Bey

Freedom Publishing Company (IL), 2004

This really is the Definitive Guide
This book is great. Hard to believe from a nutrition book, but this one becomes a pager turner. Once I started reading about all the great benefits of flax, I just wanted to find out about everything it has to offer. This book is full of great research, but you don't have to be a doctor to read it. The best part is, once you decide to started using flax, there are a bunch of great recipes right ...
  
  











  



  
Dear Fatty1 review
Dawn French

Century, 2008

Dawn's Awesome Memoir
If you love the comedy of The Vicar of Dibley and French & Saunders, you'll really enjoy this book. Written in the form of letters to various people she has (and has not) met, Dawn is by turns funny, insightful, and serious, always truthful and discrete about everything and everyone but herself -- where she is quite willing to share some raucously funny anecdotes. By turns amusing and touching, ...

This comprehensive book tells all about coconut oil. It will answer all your questions and then some. It will also explode all those outdated beliefs about oils and fats.

Great book for great nutrition

THE LCP SOLUTION: The Remarkable Nutritional Treatment for ADHD, Dyslexia, and Dyspraxia15 reviews
B. Jacqueline Stordy, Malcolm J. Nicholl

Ballantine Books, 2000

If you don't get this book...
Is it possible to rate a book higher than 5 stars? When I first read this book, my first reaction was anger. I was mad, because I had never heard of most of the information in this book. This stuff SHOULD be in the public domain. Why hasn't the media reported on any of these studies? Then I thought about it. If this stuff really does work, many companies stand to lose significant billions of ...
  
  











  



  
The Ultimate Omega-3 Diet4 reviews
Evelyn Tribole

McGraw-Hill, 2007

Terrific Book
If you want to understand how Omegas affect our bodies, this is a very good book. I learned so much about which Omegas to eat, how much and why. The recipes are very good and easy. My children even like the recipes.
  
  











  



  
The Coconut Oil Miracle (Previously published as The Healing Miracle of Coconut Oil)48 reviews
Bruce Fife, Jon J. Kabara

Avery, 2004

Very informative book
Yes, there are those out there trying to get their piece of the nutrition pie and sell you some useless subpar products, but this book is not about that. It is informative on the benefits of coconut oil. By using this information, I have had good results with my "imagined ailments" (which have been caused by my lack of understanding of nutrition in the past). People have been so miss guided by ...

The Ethics of Food Marketing
I am currently persuing a masters in International Marketing and my dissertation area is the ethics of food marketing.

Complementary and Alternative Medicine and Multiple Sclerosis5 reviews
Allen C. Bowling

Demos Health, 2006

Well-researched information
People diagnosed with an incurable disease are too-often targets of terribly unscrupulous or questionable methods of helping or curing them. When conventional medicine cannot cure us it is, to some degree, understandable. Dr. Bowling has put together a well-researched book that briefly discusses CAMs and various therapies, including yoga, tai chi, dietary supplements, vitamins and so forth. Each ...

Eat Fat, Lose Weight6 reviews
Ann Louise Gittleman

McGraw-Hill, 1999

She knows her fat!
Ann Louise Gittleman is right on the money. I found this book the most important book about dietary fat I have ever read. I, too, used to subscribe to the "fat-free" lifestyle in sad, desperate attempts to lose weight. After finding out just how much the body needs fat, especially the right kinds of fat, I realized that I was really "abusing" my body by ignoring it's needs for essential ...
  
  











  



  
I, Fatty: A Novel28 reviews
Jerry Stahl

Bloomsbury USA, 2005

A Wonderful, True to Life HIstorical Novel
I, Fatty is a truly wonderful read. Loving silent film and partial to historical novels, I expected to enjoy this novel; not only did I thoroughly enjoy it, but as I read the final page I felt happy in the knowledge that Stahl - more than 80 years after the fact - had given Roscoe Arbuckle a voice with which to comment on the horror show that passed for a fair trial. Vibrant writing is ...
  
  











  



  
Fat: It's Not What You Think3 reviews
Connie Leas

Prometheus Books, 2008

Let go of your fear of fat!
I have acquired a library of books on health and nutrition in my own attempt to understand the link between chronic degenerative diseases and diet. There is definitely a link between the low-fat, grain based diet of the last half of the 20th century and our current epidemic of health problems. Writers and researchers like Pollan, Plank, Taubes, Enig, Fallon and Simopolous are making landmark ...
  
  











  



  
Coconut Oil: For Health and Beauty5 reviews
Cynthia Holzapfel, Laura Holzapfel

Book Publishing Company (TN), 2003

Great read
After I got done reading this book I understood a lot more about fats--which you have to do to understand why coconut oil is better for you than other oils. I also liked the fact the authors are enthusiastic but not proselytizing, like coconut oil will cure everything under the sun. Great recipes too!
  
  











  



  
Omega 3 Cuisine1 review
Alan Roettinger, with Udo Erasmus

Books Alive, 2008

Outstanding!
If you are into health + taste, this is the best cookbook I've ever seen -- and largely without milk products or wheat. The recipes are simple to prepare, yet gourmet. Alan's sidebar comments are helpful and entertaining. Highly recommended!
  
  











  



  
The Omega-3 Connection: The Groundbreaking Anti-depression Diet and Brain Program29 reviews
Andrew L. Stoll

Free Press, 2001

Ground Breaking Research; Vital Information
This is a book that can be life changing. It's extremely solid, clearly written, for the lay person, and fully documented, and it concerns Dr. Stoll's claims as to the benefits of taking Omega-3 oil supplements. It was recommended to me by a Nurse Practitioner at the Hospital Clinic where I go for regular medical care, and it has caused a revolution in my life. We live in a wilderness of self ...

A tremendous amount of studies on Omega 3 are being done and many more that have been completed.

Fats Are Good for You: How Saturated Fat and Cholesterol Actually Benefit the Body3 reviews
Jon J. Kabara

North Atlantic Books, 2008

Fats Are Good for You
This book turns everything one has learned about fats for the last fifty years on its head. The truth is that saturated fats from tropical oils, butter and animals are good for you. That's why I have recommended this easy read book to my doctor and nutritionist although I live in Norway. Books like this should be prescribed for study for students becoming nutritionists and doctors.
