Book Reviews of Fit for Life
Book Review: "Nothing but the absolute truth!"
Summary: 5 Stars
I have read most of The Diamond's books, (Fit For Life, 2 & 3, Breast Cancer, Vegetarian Cooking...etc.)and found all of them equally enjoyable, I periodically re-read sections to myself, and to family members. I truly beleive the material to be accurate, as what motive would the Diamond's have to lie about the material written? It has all been deeply researched and documented. I have been following many of the suggestions for about 4 years now, and taking the "Greens" supplement for about 2 years and not only feel healthy, my Doctor says that I am. I fall off the wagon on occassion and I always feel lousy and/or get ill. I have a terrible passion for chocolate and when I indulge I always regret it! Anyways I could go on and on, just read the book and you will see what it is I am trying to convey. I wish the Diamonds the best and thank you for writing such a down to earth book. Sincerely, Nancy RoyBook Review: fanominal
Summary: 5 Stars
I have tried many diets, this so far is the only one I can say works. I origanally went on it to fit into a bathing suit, I have since gained back 40lbs because I did not stick to proper food combining. Let me tell you if you follow it it works. Don't make the mistake I made. If you can make it past the first two weeks of detoxing you can stick with it. The book is very easy to understand and there is not extra expenses involved. You do not need to be able to eat all kinds of food that you would not normally go out and buy. Make it the way you like to eat and don't stress over it. The fact that I sleep better on this program, and I seem to have unlimited patiece with everything is difficult to denie. Even my family thinks I am a better more active person. I have owned this book since 1994. And I would lend it to anyone. Even when I was not on the program I still used to book for quick pick me ups. good luck.
Book Review: The best start for a healthy lifestyle
Summary: 5 Stars
This book changed my life. It was the first health book I ever read, and to find so much vital data, explained so simply and down-to-Earth was truly amazing. The book really explains how you can improve your overall health by making a few simple changes in your eating habits, and believe me, if you are willing to try, you will be too pleased to go back to your old habits! The best part is that you can do this whethere you are a stay-at-home-mom or a busy executive, the changes are so simple that you can make them even if you are always in a hurry or if you eat out most of the time. And what will you get? More energy, like A LOT MORE, and a better functioning immune system, for starters. I am 25 years old and very healthy, but this book still helped me change my life for the better, so I am sure a lot of people who have more physical problems can be helped by reading and applying the principles in this book, too!Book Review: Tried it for several years
Summary: 5 Stars
Now in middle age (arrrgh), I am trying to shed some pounds gained to renew my physical health. I tried a few diets and the one that seems to be working is one that emphasizes raw foods like fruits, vegetables and nuts. I feel much better. But then I got to remembering a similar diet I practiced in college. It was the Fit For Life way of eating. I remember reading it, agreeing it was worth a try and eating more raw foods seemed to make sense. For three years I practiced the diet regiment and recall to this day how good I felt. Although I was not overweight, I needed to optimize my body's strength and endurance to cope with a 7 day a week schedule of university and work. I feel the Fit For Life Book was worthwhile and I am going to purchase it again to fine tune my current diet. Don't listen to the so called professional nay sayers. They are not as smart as they like to think. It worked for me.Book Review: I feel great!
Summary: 5 Stars
I picked up Fit for Life several years ago and thought about it a lot. The problem was, I ONLY thought about it. I picked it up again a month ago, when I decided that it was no longer possible for me to ignore the fact that my body was being greatly affected by the way (and what) I was eating. I have been a vegetarian for ten years, but I also indulged frequently in many dairy products, like cheese and ice cream. Since I agree with the Diamonds' philosophy on dairy, I decided to make not consuming any cow products whatsoever a way of life. I have been eating fruit, veggies, etcetera at the right times, and I feel incredible. My energy level has skyrocketed, my lethargy has lifted, and I am exercising every day. This book changed my life, and I am so excited about it that all of my friends and family are ready to explode from my constant Fit for Life conversations. Thanks to the Diamonds!
