Description

Hailed a "medical breakthrough" by Dr. Mehmet Oz, Eat to Live offers a highly effective, scientifically proven way to lose weight quickly.

The key to Dr. Joel Fuhrman's revolutionary six-week plan is simple: health = nutrients / calories. When the ratio of nutrients to calories in the food you eat is high, you lose weight. The more nutrient-dense food you eat, the less you crave fat, sweets, and high-caloric foods.

Eat to Live has been revised to include inspiring success stories from people who have used the program to lose shockingly large amounts of weight and recover from life-threatening illnesses; Dr. Fuhrman's nutrient density index; up-to-date scientific research supporting the principles behind Dr. Fuhrman's plan; new recipes and meal ideas; and much more. This easy-to-follow, nutritionally sound diet can help anyone shed pounds quickly-and keep them off.

"Dr. Furhman's formula is simple, safe, and solid." --Body and Soul

    A lot of time spent preaching and reiterating, this book can be written in one chapter. Anyone that recommends Mrs.Dash seasoning is an idiot in my opinion.

    Thank you so much for the knowledge in your book. I am extremely overweight and suffer from many of the ills listed. My daughter is on board with the eating plan. She is a young adult but on her way to poor health due to being overweight. My husband has many ills also but at this point wants to continue the poor eating habits. I am LDS (Mormon) and we have The Word of Wisdom. (D&C Section 89) That tells us how to have a healthy body. It is very similar to your guidelines. Thank you again
  • Lost 12 pounds in a week.

    Must read. This book has motivated me to eat better and live a healthy life. I am looking forward to sticking with the program. Shedding pounds helps to show that this eating style works. Easy to read and just check out all the research done at the end of this book.

    The only way to "Eat To Live" with these recipes is if you starve the rest of your family or make a doctors salary. I bought almost all the ingredients for the Anti Cancer Soup and it cost me like $50. Wanna go organic? Try about $60-70. That will be the most expensive bowl of soup I ever ate. It better cure everything!! :-)
  • What a great read!

    The book was wonderful and full of nutritional sense that the average American doesn’t understand. We are spiraling out of control with our health and most of us have no idea why or how to correct our actions. There is so much misrepresentation in our society about nutrition. Dr. Fuhrman’s book will show you the way. The facts are there.

    Hey, let's be honest this book sells the diet in the chapters. You feel committed and excited to try out Dr. Fuhrman's advice. Then Chapter 8 hits, and the manuscript layers on the surprise ending -a hell of a harsh dieting regimen. Close to no dairy or meats and eating tons of fresh vegetables and fruits in order to achieve dieting results are dynamics that aren't shocking. Practically becoming a vegetarian will make anyone lose weight. I just finished the book, and I will make an effort to let the information make tracks in my life, but eating close to no meat and dairy will be extremely harsh for me.

    By truly you
    I bought this book because I was sick and tired of feeling and being unhealthy. This book was a tremendous help in beginning a new lifestyle and approach to eating. After an adjustment of a few days, I feel much better and eating healthier is doable. My only complaint is that I wish the book had more recipes. If you are ready for a healthier lifestyle, this book will help you begin.
