This book changed my life!

This is not just another diet book! In fact it's an "un-diet".It offers practical and achievable ways to radically transform your life (at any stage) one step at a time.Not just a food and fitness guide but a guide to maximize your life through time management, stress management as well as weight loss, food and exercises.Dr. Lerner's sense of humor is encouraging and entertaining along the way. In just a short time I have increased my energy and lowered my stress and I am looking forward to more results as I continue this program.

A Great Book!! "Body by God" is a must read if you plan on living a healthy, happy, and organized life. Dr. Ben has helped me organize my life since reading this powerful and moving book. How, you might ask??? One example is that I have FINALLY found the balance in life that I was seeking between family(I'm married with 5 kids),work, and personal training thanks to this book. The "un-diet" is great and I loved the passages from scripture. This book is a must read and one that you will find yourself going back to time and time again.Dr. Michael L.

Practicle and Sensible

My life was transformed! The practical and biblically based instructions in The Body by God were essential in "maximizing" my life. I have been following Dr. Ben's sensible teachings for the past 6 years. During that time I've enjoyed great health and energy. At 51 years of age and 3 grown children, I am still able to eat large amounts of food and maintain my 4-petitie size. I've been able to face extremely stressful circumstances with peace and serenity. No magic formula, simply the commitment to follow the God-inspired instructions by Dr. Ben. How fortunate we all are that they are now brilliantly related in this new book!

A book that makes sense

In today's marketplace of fad diets and "magic bullet" cures, this book is right on time. I think everyone knows that dieting doesn't work and you can't get ripped abs in three minutes per day. What keeps healthy people healthy is their entire lifestyle. That's what this book is about and more. It takes into account how God made the body and how to live in accordance with that design. Rather than listening to the "educated" about what it takes to be healthy, it makes much more sense to listen to the Divine. I have always believed that health comes from the inside-out, and this is a step-by-step instruction on how to live that way.

The best book on health on the market

Finally a book about how to get healthy and stay healthy!!! Every other book on the market seems to be about some gimac on how to lose weight fast. We all know that these never work in the long term. All that ends up happening from books like the South Beach Diet or Atkins is that you end up dying thinner. You never learn how to improve your overall level of health. Body by God is different. It is an awesome owner's manual teaching you how to improve your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health. It teaches you how to eat,exercise and manage stress properly. The way God intended you to do it. I've already lost 15 lbs and I feel better than I have in years!The plan is a 40 day transformation which is easy to follow and allows you to improve 40% in 40 days. It is an easy read and quite humerous. This is absolutely, hands down, the best book I have ever read on health and I'm giving it to everyone I know this Christmas. The author Dr. Ben Lerner is definately someone to watch for the future. If this is his first book I can't wait to see what will be next!
