This is a self-caretaking book. Good for those who are fully committed to better health.
This is good book for someone just beginning the self-caretaking journey. It contains just about everything, though discoveries after 2004 obviously are not included. I believe Rubin is sincere and well-informed, and I wish I had discovered his book at the beginning of my own journey. The book may challenge someone who is uninformed about the matters Rubin discusses, and some may be put off by the book's depth, but I believe the information is sound and that Rubin himself offers what he considers it mandatory to know in this day and age for improved health.
If you have the time to do what is required, this could be an interesting diet.
Jordan Rubin's story is amazing. For years I have learned from friends that have made these changes in their lives and see that they are vibrant, energetic and confident in the gradual success of applying the information. I have found that this is real, and truthful and there is no reason why any person couldn't go about these changes successfully. Read it carefully, adapt to what you can and strive to do more in time. He does NOT deter us from medical care, if needed, so it is safe and reliable.
Hope you find the relief and freedom I have found and apply it regularly.

I loved this book. I like to eat organically and naturally anyway, Jordan Rubin just articulated what I was feeling about how to eat and live healthy.

Not just a diet book, a man's history of his decline and regain of his health, and not just do not eat foods, but exactly why not to eat certain foods.
Very interesting read! I learned alot from this book.
This is a holistic approach to healthy eating. Really opened my eyes to foods that can bog down your system!
