"This is another one of those mind blowing books! Dr. Fuhrman preaches a simple rule, everything you eat should have a high degree of nutrition compared to its calories. Therefore, meats, dairy, white flour, and processed foods don't make the cut! We should be eating mainly greens, vegetables, beans, fruit and nuts. I have been on my own journey to health and using this lifestyle I have already shed MANY pounds! I feel better and have much more energy! This book is extreme, but once you start eating more healthy (like a "Nutritarian" Furhman says) you will reap numerous benefits! This is a phenomenal source for nutrition!" — Mindy (5 out of 5 stars)

" Last year I was diagnosed with Lupus. Determined not to live on medication I started reading everything I could to determine a diet that would help minimize my symptoms. Thank goodness for Eat to Live! I could tell almost immediately the benefits of following this diet. "
" I saw Joel on a raw foods documentary so I was hoping his book would be promoting that type of diet. Instead, he heavily recommends canned beans, canned vegetables, and frozen fruits. I was disappointed. "
" This is the best book on nutrition I've read. Michael Pollan's books were very inspirational, but lacked both research and practical applications to back up his writing. This book not only filled in the gaps, but was also very motivating. "
" Best nutrition book I have read. "
" This book has changed my life. This month. Not sure how long the effect has been but this is kind of like a life changing book. I am suggesting it to everyone. "
" Honestly could not finish the book. The book does not take into account those people who do better with protein. some things make sense. It's just too one-sided. "
" Though I don't want to eat a pound of greens everyday to lose my excess pounds, I loved this book. It completely freed me of the notion that I have to eat animal products to get adequate protein. It also clued me into food addictions and true hunger cues. It's definitely worth reading. "
" Interesting book, although it got repetitive towards the middle and end. I'm using some of his suggestions and have lost weight and feel good. "
" Umm... this book could totally make me go vegetarian. And could totally help me kick my weight-loss contest's butt. And for anyone that feels that eating animals is morally and ethically wrong, rest assured-- the animals get their final revenge on us. "
" Dr. Fuhrman definitely has an uncompromising stance on proper nutrition. You will learn a lot from this. Even if he has set the bar a little higher than most of us will reach, it gives you something to aim for. "
" If I were better or didn't have picky-eater children, I would follow this plan. Brian and I actually did this last year for a month and LOVED it. We felt so good. "
" More reasons to stop eating animal products altogether.... "
" such a good, informative book. i wish i could live by it better. "
" I love vegetables, but I might not be ready for full-on vegetarianism. Which is what this essentially talked about. Great recipes in it, so I'm certainly going to try to eat more "nutritarian" like. "
" Curretly following this afte rmy 18 day Juice fast. Focused on whole natural foods, fruites, veggies, nuts, beans and whole grains. Must read, good stuff! "
" Excellent but really extreme. Start S L O W and achieve more in the long run. "
" Well written and researched, very extreme. "
" Really excellent book on nutrition. All the information presented is backed by multiple medical studies. It has totally changed the way I eat - which is amazing in and of itself. "
" we shall see. "
" I lost 15 pounds! This is a great informative book and eating this way really makes a difference. "
" Hmm, I find some of the assertions in this to be suspect. But I like the recipes in the back! I started adding kale to my smoothies, and it works really well for me! "
" A life changing book. Eye opening and an easy read. Loved it!! "
" Suggested reading from my doctor. "
" I have been changing my relationship to food over the past four years-- shifting from the meat and potatoes diet I grew up with. I love vegetables and fruit and this book has all the information to motivate you to eat for health. "
" I loved it! It made perfect sense and was jam packed full of facts and figures. While it should have been enough to motivate me to eat better...I have yet to really commit to it. "
" Good basic info on how to change your life....not a DIET (4 letter word) "
" Finally some validated research in a clearly written format WITH REFERENCES! I've been vegetarian but this helped me realize what choices I was really making for my health and now I feel empowered. I know more about what I'm eating than I ever thought I would. "
" Snagged a second (lending) copy today! "
" WOW!! This book has changed my eating... not that I ever really ate bad, but this is awesome! "
" While I liked most of the information and I do think that it is fairly accurate I also think that the good Doctor is pushing a Vegan Lifestyle which may or may not be for everyone we will see how it works after 6 weeks "
" Honestly, I skimmed through this, although he specifically asks you not to. I appreciated the medical references and the nutritional info which seems to have finally motivated me to eat more fruit and veg. "
" This is a great book to read once-in-a-while to help remind me what to eat and why to eat healthy. It's a little over my head.. Thankfully the Kindle has a dictionary application. "
" Easy read, making excellent points about healthy eating choices. "
" This is my food bible. Love it! "
" A great guide to sustained weight loss by eating a mostly vegan diet "
