review 1: This book has some good nutritional information and suggestions, but once again, the recipes require ingredients that are not easy to find or too expensive for the average consumer, like leg of lamb or rib eye steak. Liquid stevia in different flavors is suggested for adding sweetness to smoothies and dessert recipes, which I have not found in grocery stores. For this ordinary mom of many, I have learned a few good things about increasing my vegetables, decreasing my carbs, decreasing my sugar intake, increasing protein in plant foods, exercise is necessary, and discovering there is such a thing as chocolate flavored liquid Stevia.
review 2: Tana Amen has written a book that helps people change the way they eat and think about food. Although I am a vegetarian,
... more gluten intolerant and have a host of other food issues which prevent me from using the plan the way she laid it out - I do agree with her basic tenet, which basically boils down to maintaining an alkaline diet (the 70/30 rule. Disease cannot thrive in an alkaline environment, so choosing foods that help to keep your body alkaline only makes sense. The book is well laid out and the recipes section has a lot to offer. If you have been eating mostly processed foods or dealing with chronic health issues, this book can help put you on the path to renewed health and a better understanding of why to eat real whole foods, and how to do it. less
