Not very many people in today's culture will find this diet attractive or convenient. First of all, it addresses the myth that "low fat" or "fat-free" is better. It is a lie and many young women have been mislead into thinking that lowfat is a more healthy diet. God intended us to eat healthy fats and unprocessed foods. So, we should eat real butter, cheese, and milk abundantly! The diet requires a bit of change, but you can make slow changes over the course of a year, and they will make a huge impact on your overall health.

After reading this book about 2 years ago, here are some things that I changed. We did not make these changes all at once. 1) We eliminated breakfast cereal and replaced it with eggs and old fashioned oatmeal. 2) We eliminated hydronated oils and replaced with butter, coconut oil, and olive oil. 3) We eliminated sugar and replaced it with honey and stevia. 4) We eliminated commercial grains like pasta and bread and replaced it with brown rice or brown rice pasta,and occassionally sourdough bread. 5) We eliminated milk from the grocery store and started buying raw milk from a local farmer. 6) We added probiotic foods to our diet.

some people swear by this diet, but i found it very unrealistic, expensive and very labor intensive

Good information on how to eat the way God intended us to eat. I don't believe Christians have to follow food laws though, the New Testament says that we can eat meat and other foods as long as we give thanks to God who made all of the food. However, it probably does not hurt us to eat high quality foods like Jordan Rubin suggests. I enjoyed his teaching on herbs and their different uses. Overall a good book.

We really enjoy this book. It really made us think about all the modern not so good stuff we are putting in our bodies. I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in learning about a healthy organic lifestyle.

Interesting. It does require a change in thinking about the way we eat.

A very interesting concept. If you can follow at least somewhat, you will see results!

Inspiring diet to regain your health, but a little extreme for my taste.

EXCELLENT - aquired two copies, so thought I would share!! has a little of the author's sales pitch for his products, but great Biblically based advice for healthy eating with resources.

This book helped me so much. I am now eating REAL food, am losing fat, and feel GREAT! I didn't realize how much junk I was eating until I read this book. His story is awesome of how he was healed after being near death. I couldn't put it down.
I couldn't afford to do everything he suggests, but I did the basics and it still made a world of difference. Don't let it overwhelm you. Even the smallest changes will benefit you.

Being as I haven't finished the book, and that forever is a Real Long Time, I will just say that Jordan has made an excellent case for us to re-visit the way we eat/live. I know that I have already made a few style changes, and will be making more over the years. He writes with a very compelling style--not a page turner, but certainly good reading!
