" Very good research but a bit repetitive. I plan on following the diet as soon as I have control over my kitchen, but I won't believe all of the benefit claims until I experience them myself. This is still a book that everybody should read because it succinctly explains why our food, pharma and health care industries are keeping us sick and what we can do to take away their power. "

" Interesting that he linked so many maladies to diet. He has a case, but some of the connections were a bit tenuous. "

" Excellent resource--have instituted many changes which have led to a 15 pound weight loss in my daughter. I believe this has been the "missing link" with some of her health challenges. "

" There were some parts that were very good. Interesting, making you think. With citations, so that you can read further. But. This book is mainly a marketing piece for the authors website (and webshop). And when it comes to the practical part (what you should do), then it turns out, that what you should do is to go to his website. Every other paragraph ends with this advice. Also there are lots of citations, but some of the evidence is rather thin (a single study on a few people/mice). These studies may be relevant in creating new ideas and new research, but are far away from being applicable in real life. I really wanted to like this book, and there are chapters that I did, very much. But all in all, it's just too much marketing "

" I won this book in the giveaway. This is a comprehensive guide to health & wellness covering whole-food nutrition, supplementation, detoxification, stress management, and fitness. Dr. Hyman is an entertaining and engaging writer. Get ready to learn more than you thought possible about the dangers of unhealthy eating and the benefits of eating the "Blood Sugar Solution" way. It will inspire you and give you hope for a healthier more vibrant future. I recommend it highly. "

" Fantastic book with excellent practical information. I have been using the principles in this book with excellent results! Lost weight, feeling great! "

" There is a ton of really valuable & interesting explanations related to diabetes, but also overall health & how our body processes food. I learned alot but also struggled to keep motivated to read. His recommendations are similar to much of the popular health/wellness articles of late - definitely parts I can take but total system would be major overhaul I'm not ready for. The last section of the book is an incredible resource for those wanting to research & investigate natural foods, beauty/household products, etc. a book I would recommend to anyone highly interested in the personalized, natural health & environment "

" The structure was a mess and the frequent references to the website are annoying. However, the content is excellent. I am already benefiting from the diet in that I have slightly more energy and concentration. "

" Surely a lot of helpful information. But the diet would be impossible for me as an ovo,,lacto vegetarian, since the only sources of protein would be eggs, beans, and nuts. No dairy or grains is too restrictive, although I am cutting down and adding more exercise. "

" Nothing new. Same info as always in all Mark Hyman books repeated over and over again. First time I read his book Ultrametabolism I loved it. This is pretty much same stuff packaged differently, targeted at people with more serious problems (what he calls 'diabesity'). "
