 Almost impossible to find a better book... March 8, 2006
6 out of 7 found this review helpful
This book is amazing. Paul Bragg is amazing. Everyone who hasn't read this book should read it immediately. It is for everyone. It will open your eyes to the truth -- we are responsible for our own health. We are not victims. If we're sick, it's our fault. It's not because there is some kind of virus or popular disease that is going around. We decide what goes into our bodies. We decide to eat things that are just not for us, like dead animals and bleached breads.
If you're sick of feeling sick, read this book! If you've ever had a headache, read this book!
My family's life has been strongly influenced by Bragg's books. My mother was very sick from a disease that could not be cured, or so said the doctors. She was allergic to medicine. After reading this book and eliminating "foods" like meat, eggs, almost all dairy, and baked foods, our family was on the way to healthy living. I was 4 years old at that time and haven't been to the doctor since then, except for yearly check-ups and one incident in which I faked a fever in order to skip a test (the doctor believed it). Because of the unbelievable complete recovery of my mother, and excellent overall health of our entire family, we too have begun influencing others and setting an example. Today I am a happy raw foodist. I eat 100% raw plant food. I love it and the raw food diet is the closest to natural living.
Interesting read.. alot of information, and facts on food. February 16, 2005
7 out of 9 found this review helpful
This is a good book, i enjoyed reading it because it contains ALOT of information, on what foods really do to the human body, and what mans ideal foods are. I also liked that it contained quotes from important historic people such as hippocrates and jesus. This book is definately worth reading, it makes you think with hard hitting statements that hit home. I have changed alot of my eating habbits due to this book. a couple of things though, i found it sometimes repetitive, i own another braggs book called 'healthy living to 120' proberly half of the things in that book are also mentioned in this book. if you want a book on fasting this is great for giving you lots of information you'll need, but if you want a book that mentions fasting but isn't soley based on that, but is about food and healthy living in general try, 'healthy living to 120'
one statement that made me think was this: (from the book)
"only two things can kill us, sickness or accident.
think about that, i have and i can't think of anything else that can kill us, I think murder maybe, or natural disaster but i think that would fall under the accident catagory because it isn't a sickness..
The only diet & nutrition book you'll ever need April 18, 2004

I really enjoyed the simplicity of this book. Many other books on diet and nutrition are too scientific and somewhat difficult to absorb. This one is plain and simple. I like the fact that the topics are repeated throughout the book. By the time you read the whole thing you have a good understanding of how to live a healthy lifestyle. It's really not difficult. This is a good book even if you choose not to fast. I became a vegetarian after reading this book and fasting made the transition much easier. I no longer crave junk food or meat.
Jack LaLanne is Bragg's most famous student October 14, 2003

A google search for "Paul Bragg" and "Jack LaLanne" reveals Jack LaLanne was 15 years old when he first heard Bragg speak. Now in his 80s, people say Jack LaLanne looks and acts 50ish. Paul Bragg lived to 95, but didn't die of old age, he died body surfing in the ocean of all things. I've read several books on fasting and this is without a doubt the best one. If you've got the willpower to follow through on Bragg's instructions you can feel great and dramatically improve your health and extend your life.

I have been following Paul Bragg since 1969. His books were the first I read on health. It changed my life. I was 24 years old when I got into health foods.I stopped smoking and started eating right. I would fast once a week. I am so greatful for the knowledge he has given us all.I used to go see him at his lectures. I was blessed to be able to see him in person. I have been in good health since I was 24 years old and I am in controll of my own body because of the knowledge that was given to me by Paul Bragg. God bless him..... Jo :>)
