Eat to Live

This book explains in a wonderful way how to change your eating habits and stay healthy and slim. My husband and I sticked to the 6-week eating schedule effortless and lost 10 pounds each (at age of 64, I went from 135 to 125 pounds in 6 weeks). The most wonderful thing is that we are still on this healthy eating style long after the 6 weeks were gone on March 15, 2008. I have recommended this book to others and they have the same experience as I had.

MAXIMIZE NUTRITION AND HEALTH

This book emphasizes eating foods rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and phytochemicals in order to enhance health. The diet focuses on greens, fruits, and beans, while nearly eliminating fats, starches, and empty calories. Weight loss is achieved by consuming foods that are high in nutrient density so that you are maximizing micronutrients while simultaneously minimizing calories. The book is aimed at promoting health, which the author describes using a formula: Health=Nutrients/Calories. The author, Dr. Fuhrman, believes that people are satisfied eating fewer calories if those calories are rich in nutrients.

The book includes 7-day menus and recipes for vegetarians and non-vegetarians. A sample day is:
Breakfast: Baked apple with raisins and cinnamon.
Lunch: Salad-stuffed pita with Hummus Spread and Fresh fruit.
Dinner: Mixed baby greens with cracked peppercorn dressing, Broccoli and Red Pepper Soup, slice of 7-grain bread, Corn on the cob with Vege Base seasoning.

The diet is focused on health and weight loss and offers a way to use nutrition to assist in fighting disease. An inspired person can use the advice to reconstruct their diet to promote health. I like the idea of enhancing health through nutrition and weight control, and while the menu may seem time consuming, I believe the author is trying to show that you can turn highly nutritious foods such as veggies, fruits, beans, etc., into a tasty meal.

Restored to health, amazing!

This book gives clear, research based information explaining how food is related to health. Plus when you eat for nutrition, weight loss follows automatically. Following Dr. Fuhrman's recommendations, I have lost about 35 lbs, and my husband has lost over 120 lbs. He has struggled with his weight and many other health issues for years, and many of his health problems have resolved since starting the plan last Dec. We can now do so many things that were difficult or impossible before. Its like getting your life back!
I would highly reccommend this book. PS-The book offers non-vegan options.

Enlightening!

Finally, a book that educates you about food,and what it does. This book could save your life. You would be mistaken if you think it's just another diet book. Great research from the China Project. You will be blown away by how we are constantly influenced by our culture to eat poorly.

you'll never eat wrongly again!

Having read this book I was converted. Dr. Fuhrman explains the chemistry of food in ways that are totally understandable. I have been eating the way he suggests now for nearly 4 weeks, have lost weight and am not finding it difficult to stay with it. A very good book for those looking to make over their lives, or just wanting to find a healthier way of eating.

When Mehmet Oz or any of New York's leading doctors has a patient whose life depends on losing weight, they call on Joel Fuhrman, M.D. In EAT TO LIVE, Dr. Fuhrman offers his healthy, effective, and scientifically proven plan for shedding radical amounts of weight quickly, and keeping it off.Losing weight under Dr. Fuhrman's plan is not about willpower, it is about knowledge. The key to this revolutionary diet is the idea of nutrient density, as expressed by the simple formula Health=Nutrients/Calories. When the ratio of nutrients to calories is high, fat melts away and health is restored. Losing 20 pounds in two to three weeks is just the beginning. The more high-nutrient food Dr. Fuhrman's patients consume, the more they are satisfied with fewer calories, and the less they crave fat and high-calorie foods. Designed for people who must lose 50 pounds or more in a hurry, EAT TO LIVE works for every dieter, even those who want to lose as little as 10 pounds quickly. No willpower required-just knowledge!
