review 1: advocates a very-low-carb or ketogenic diet. good on protein & fat functions in the body. good info on gluten, especially testing and psychological/emotional connections, in particular the ADHD chapter. poor rating for two reasons: first, the anthropology is poor and the "ketosis for everyone" approach is unfounded; second, because the writing and tone are relentlessly alarmist, breathless, and snarky, and it gets old fast.
review 2: I went into this book with an open mind and i'm glad i did. This book has really given me alot of insight on how our ancestors used to do things and how our diet can effect every element of our being. Although i did not agree with some of her topics and some of the work she has tried to give evidence to has not been thoroughly r... moreesearched and is flawed. For example she said that using a microwave can kill all nutrients according to a study back in 2001 which was quickly ruled out because the experiment was not carried out in a way somebody would use a microwave.Apart from that i think this is a great book for people to want to know about eating like our ancestors and increasing your lifespan. less
