Customer Reviews

Makes so much sense!

I own this book and agree with a lot of what is says. Recommend it to anyone interested in healthy living. I'm Liberian (W.Africa) and grew up in CA. I have always preferred Liberian food over American and think most of the dishes are so much healthier for me.

The diet book that finally answers my questions!

This is a wonderfully written book full of insights and useful information. and it's organized so well that it's easy to find what you're looking for. Kliment explains why, because most of us are of mixed heritage, we need to take a simple self-test (it's in the book) to find out what foods we can digest and will provide the missing nutrients our bodies need. One of the major problems the book addresses is why people let their hunger for calorie rich foods override their desire to stick to a wieght loss diet. There are solid suggestions for preventing this from happening. One of them is potato broth, easy to make and pleasant to drink. I've been on it for two weeks and my huge appetitie is already showing signs of waning. Because I have type 2 diabetes and arthritis, I've combined the menu plans in the book designed for these two health problems. They're jam packed with foods that studies have shown have a healing effect. I'm so enthusiastic about this book because it answers questions I've had for years and have not found the answer to in any other diet book.
