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

It's a good read and great information. I wish the hard copy version had the page numbers beside the recipes titles mentioned in the daily meal plans for easier reference instead of asterisks.

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.

Not so different from Dr. Terry shintani's work and other promoters of vegan low fat diets updated with the latest scientific information. Many tasty recipes a plus.
