review 1: This book is simply fantastic. It is a no-nonsense, straightforward explanation of a healthy diet, and why it is worth following. I say diet, but this word has been tainted by modern dieting crazes; the perfect health diet is reminiscent of Pollack's three rules (Eat Food, Mostly Plants, Not Too Much) while being more rigorous and complete.Don't let the name put you off. This book isn't about a new diet fad. It just tells you how we were meant to eat.
review 2: Okay. This is going to be a really obnoxious review, but I have to go there to give the Jaminets their due.

... moreope for this strategy; it's one of several I'm currently trying. In the meantime, I have read more than I care to admit about diet, and I read much of the health research that is released every day on PubMed. Recently, it's been difficult to find information in health books that I haven't read somewhere else, and when people ask me to recommend one book on health, I have never been able to think of one that was thorough enough (or correct enough...see, obnoxious) to suggest. This book solves these problems. This book is the only book on diet that you will never need. It is thorough, well-researched (with footnotes), well-organized, and fairly concise, despite its 420-page length. It has lots of old information and lots of new information on diet, supplements, and disease and includes food and menu suggestions. And it's correct. Hooray! less
