Great knowledge and hidden jems
This book teaches you so much about the body/food relationship. I attended his seminar and bought the book to keep up!He spells it all out in easy to understand terms. THIS SHOULD BE TAUGHT BY EVERY DOCTOR AND IN EVERY SCHOOL.It is full of great recipes and a 10 day challenge. I took the challenge. It was the best and hardest thing I ever did. But the bottom line is this: you can live a healthy life and take care of your body the way it was made. Man can not exist on bread alone. Read it only if you are willing to learn what’s best for the body and mind.

Old statistics
I received this book 5/8/24. I’ve chewed on much of the information, 90% of it still very much relevant. I am though disappointed, the statistics are almost 20 years old, (wish they could update), so much has changed since 2006, 2007. Other than old stats it’s a very good guide and reference that will help me make much needed changes.

Excellent Book!
This book was easy to read and understand. I appreciate the data that was shared and the food classification system. Finally, I feel like I can obtain optimal health because of Dr. Montgomery's blueprint. Thank you! 🙏🏾

This is an amazing and life-transforming book
This is an amazing and life-transforming book. My 78-year old father--on 26 medications per day for diabetes, gout, hypertension, cholesterol, allergies, arthritis, etc. followed this plan and in 6 weeks went from 26 meds to 6 meds per day, his formerly out of control diabetes (with a blood glucose int he 300s-400s daily and an A1C of 10.0--and THIS on 75U of Lantus per day and 26U of Humulog--actually got back to normal numbers. He got down to the 100s eating a whole-food plant based diet and OFF insulin and on a very low dose of a diabetes drug. He got off the diuretic that was supposed to control his leg and feet swelling (and it wasn't)--and when he went off and started eating a whole food plant based diet, his swelling in his legs completely went away. His high triglycerides dropped ~75 points. His markers of inflammation lower dramatically. He lost 25 pounds and was never hungry and enjoyed the food. Smoothies every day and all the fruit he could eat as well as prepared whole foods. He did not stick to it, unfortunately for a variety of reasons--and now he is reversing back and his blood sugars are rising. He has gone BACK on the statin because his cholesterol jacked right back up once he returned to eating bacon and cheese. Now he feels like crap all the time again.

Nothing special
Good advice however it is not much different from eating other plans as it stresses the need to avoid processed foods which is important in all aspects of healthy diet.
