About this ebook

Hailed a "medical breakthrough" by Dr. Mehmet Oz, Eat to Live offers a highly effective, scientifically proven way to lose weight quickly.

The key to Dr. Joel Fuhrman's revolutionary six-week plan is simple: health = nutrients / calories. When the ratio of nutrients to calories in the food you eat is high, you lose weight. The more nutrient-dense food you eat, the less you crave fat, sweets, and high-caloric foods.

Eat to Live has been revised to include inspiring success stories from people who have used the program to lose shockingly large amounts of weight and recover from life-threatening illnesses; Dr. Fuhrman's nutrient density index; up-to-date scientific research supporting the principles behind Dr. Fuhrman's plan; new recipes and meal ideas; and much more. This easy-to-follow, nutritionally sound diet can help anyone shed pounds quickly-and keep them off.

Ratings and reviews

I could feel the difference the first day I started the program,energy level,motivation have been going to start exercising for the previous 18 months,I did after day 1 and plan to continue for a lifetime... Thank you Dr Furhman,I knew ther was a way,and you have provided a clear way,I heard a profound statement one in my life,when I listen,I learn,I have shared this with a number of people, only to recieve a blank stare in responce,what a blessing to learn to listen... such informationavailabl

I found this when it first came out and even though I grew up vegetarian and thought I knew my stuff it was wonderful to have Dr. Fuhrman's perspective and experience. His use of the word #FoodNoise stuck with me the most. All the rules we grow up with to optimize our nutrition and try to sift out the science from the non-science out there on nutrition while also accomplishing our life goals... it was absolutely a relief to read it all from an authority on the subject I could trust. Whew. I've modified the things in this book to fit my lifestyle only slightly but this, and his fasting book, remain the ones I go back to when I need to reread the basics again.

Explains how foods impact our health and arms you with everything you could need to reverse any heath issues you are faced with. Mine was weight loss and I'm pleased with my results and new way of life.
