- The best prescription
This books contains all the information you need to implement healthy changes in your life. No one could adopt these dietary changes without seeing improvement, or complete resolution, of their chronic health conditions.
I am a practicing anesthesiologist, and as a physician I admit to some bias. I segregate books on health-related topics into two categories: those written by qualified professionals (M.D.'s & PhD's), and those that were not (which I fondly refer to as "groovy books"). I admit to reading the groovy ones, too, but I take their claims with a grain of salt. This book, so obviously based on the latest research as well as Dr Furhman's clinical experience, abundantly referenced, is a wake-up call. I fail to see how any intelligent reader could come away from this book without a new perspective on health, disease, and their deitary habits.
I deal daily with surgical patients who are in their poor state of health, and scheduled for operations, as a direct result of many years of dietary self-abuse. If I could but hand them a copy of this book and turn back the clock, I have no doubt that I would be out of a job.
Rating: - Eat To Live by Dr. Joel Fuhrman
This is one of the BEST books I have read on nutrition and living healthy. The other BEST book I have read in the same regard is Disease Proof Your Child: Feeding Kids Right by same author Dr. Joel Fuhrman. Both books are a "must read". Dr. Fuhrman offers practical, straightforward informantion and anyone can comprehend and apply to their daily lives. His plan is simple and makes complete sense as we are faced with daily pressure to eat fast food,junk food and foods loaded with sugar, fat and preservatives. Some nutritous food may not always be as convienient as fast food but nutritous food won't kill you, fast food and junk food (empty calories) will. I plan to read all Dr. Fuhrman's books and apply his plan to my daily living.
Rating: - The truth about nutrition
I read Eat to Live after I read The China Study by T Colin Campbell.
Herein lies the truth about nutrition. This information will change
your life forevermore--if you let it. Excess weight will literally
fall off. Cholesterol will come down. High blood pressure will come
down. Diabetes can be reversed, as well as heart disease. And there
is still more . . .
Rating: - A Must Read
If you are trying to lose weight, or simply want to have a healthier lifestyle this book is essential. I have lost 10 pounds in 3 weeks, I have more energy, and I simply feel healthier.

- Save your money, get this at the library so you can return it.
Although recommended by a friend, this was a letdown. Bigger than most diet books.
I'll save you the money and reveal the plot:
1. Why all the other diets are no good, in gory detail - (3/4 of the book)
2. Why you should become a vegetarian (a chapter or so)
3. Some recipes in order to tolerate an all veggie diet
Go to a library to thumb through it. This book isn't a keeper.
