Book Reviews of The Diet Cure
Book Review: I concur with Daino - Diet Cure works.
Summary: 5 Stars
Ross includes a "symptom" questionnaire that helps individualize the rest of her text. I agree with Daino that this book is of great help to those of us who have done poorly in the past in the battle of the bulge. Another previous reviewer was concerned about dieters overdosing on the amino-acid supplements Ross recommends. However, I'm of the mind that people could get toxicity overdosing on anything. We need to be individually responsible for following the guidelines recommended by the manufacturer, AND we must purchase products from companies that have proven themselves to maintain quality and honesty. I purchase my various supplements from iHerb because they offer choices within their stock and because they also have links to documentation that explains what a supplement "does". Their service is excellent and I am going to e-mail them to link to this book. Ross has done a good job here and has earned the added advertisment.Book Review: Maks Sense of it All
Summary: 5 Stars
Written for the lay person, but loaded with the scientific basis of nutrition and what the foods we eat do once inside our bodies. I'm following the advice given in the book and it has been spot on. I recognized a lot from college chemistry and biology, but this was far, far easier to understand and apply. I now look at food in a whole new light and feel better than I have in years. My only criticism would be that she continually refers you to other chapters, which made sense within the context of whatever subject she was on, but you had to keep going to the table of contents. It would have been helpful to have the chapter number included on the top of the right hand page so you could leaf through to the referred chapter quickly, but all in all a small inconvenience in an otherwise great experience. This book is a keeper for future reference, and I have already recommended it to some friends.Book Review: Finally something that makes sense...
Summary: 5 Stars
Finally a book that makes sense, and not empty promises. I've battled with weight issues since puberty, and never found anything that could help with the cravings, and the less I ate the heavier I got. The information on amino acid replacement has allowed me to supplement my diet, and eat a normal amout of food. Who would have believed that you could lose weight on 2,000 calories a day. I've never been more satisfied and balanced in my life. I wish I could send this book to everyone who ever tried to get healthy by eating nothing but fruits and vegetables. I finally feel like I have to tools to create the active lifestyle I have always wanted. Where's the Beef!Book Review: Finally - something that makes sense!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
On the advice of a nutritionist, whose sister is a friend, I ordered this book and am devouring it! Concisely written, with examples that are on point, I find myself and my food consumption delineated in almost every chapter!
I wanted to start on the supplements right after Kate's story in the introduction, but actually held off (which was NOT an easy task!). For those of us who have struggled with weight and so many other health concerns, it is nice to see this all addressed. I am NOT alone with these problems and they ARE solveable. Eureka !!! take your time - read and assimilate all the book has to say and then JUST DO IT!!!
Book Review: I can't recommend this book more....
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been learning nutrition for many years and worked with a nutritionist as both client and student. This book contains all the information that I've been taught on causes of weight gain and inability to lose weight, plus it explains it to the reader in simple terms. It individualizes the problem and makes it easy for someone to understand and apply the information for better health. I'm very very impressed. I have an educational nutritional website and I've linked my article on weightloss to this book so my readers can buy it. Thank you, Julia Ross, M.A. Chris, Founder, McVitamins
