 A guide to eating healthy August 2, 2008

The 150 Healthiest Foods on Earth is one of the best books I've ever read and very educational. Excellent reading and it confirms a lot of the foods I have been eating for quite sometime. I always learn something new and it was very entertaining also.

 Interesting Read... July 12, 2008

Got this book at the recommendation of a co-worker. It is a very interesting read, with good information in it, and I recommend it to people interested in learning more about nutrition, however I do have some issues with the book. One is that since it just covers good things (the 150 Healthiest) he kinda gets picky showing why you should have this one on the list instead of one that may have made 151. A better book may have been the 75 healthiest and 75 LEAST healthy foods so that you could make the big choices, not just the little optimizations if you are already eating well. A second complaint is that he takes too much stock in: 1) Its what we ate in the Paleo era, so it must be good and 2) It has been a folk cure in XXX for a hundred years so it must work. Overall I am glad I purchased the book. Be aware though that it does not tell you anything about how you should eat, only documents these 150 foods and their value. If you want insight into what to eat I recommend (HIGHLY) "Eat this Not That" by Zinczenko and even his ABS Diet book.
Changed the Way I Eat July 5, 2008

This book changed what I eat and the way I think about the food that I eat. I am a 30 year old woman who was raised the culture of constant dieting. Although Bowden doesn't offer a diet solution if you eat the foods he recommends in the book and cut out the "fast-acting carbs and sugar in breads, cereals, pastas, desserts, cakes rolls, cracker and fast food" (pg. 18) you will lose weight. AND once you get over the 3 day hunger hump, it's not that hard! I've lost 5lbs within the first two weeks and I am never hungry. I use this book as a constant reference into what I am eating. If I feel like a need to "cheat" I don't have to cheat, I usually eat (sugar free) dark chocolate or strawberries with splenda both of which are one of 150 healthiest foods.
