2.0 out of 5 stars How to Ruin a Good Subject with Out of Control Hype
I was hoping to have an important book in my hand, well written, documented and with some new recipes instead this is an obvious ploy to spread the word and make money by turning the volume on high and never letting up...page after page of souped up hype and book jacket expletives, pictures of handshakes from the good ole boys, and all kinds of verification from his...

This review is from: Achieving Great Health -- How Spirulina, Chlorella, Raw foods and Ionized Water Can Make You Healthier than You Have Ever Imagined In 90 Days or Less (Paperback)
This book is truly have changed my life. I used to believe that foods I was eating were healthy, but for a past two years I started discovering that this was not true. After reading this book, I am very much convinced. I am not only feeling better, but got so much energy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Achieving Great Health -- How Spirulina, Chlorella, Raw Foods and Ionized Water Can Make You Healthier than You Have Ever Imagin, August 31, 2005

This review is from: Achieving Great Health -- How Spirulina, Chlorella, Raw foods and Ionized Water Can Make You Healthier than You Have Ever Imagined In 90 Days or Less (Paperback)
This is by far the most comprehensive book on natural health I have ever written. The author obviously lives the lifestyle he promotes. The book is detailed and has an abundence of scientific references to back his claims that we need to move to a raw food diet if we expect to be healthy. He also explains water and why we need to consume it each and every day. I was surprised at many of the conculsions arrived at in the book, but when I stopped to think about it I could see he is right about all of it. The book outlines six things we need to do to be health and cure ourselves of disease. I was very impressed with it and urge everyone to read it if you want to be truly healthy.

I love this book! It explains in great detail the benefits of consuming chlorella and spirulina. I started taking both and I could really tell a difference in how I felt. I highly recommend this book.

This review is from: Achieving Great Health -- How Spirulina, Chlorella, Raw foods and Ionized Water Can Make You Healthier than You Have Ever Imagined In 90 Days or Less (Paperback)
I was hoping to have an important book in my hand, well written, documented and with some new recipes instead this is an obvious ploy to spread the word and make money by turning the volume on high and never letting up...page after page of souped up hype and book jacket expletives, pictures of handshakes from the good ole boys, and all kinds of verification from his friends while the author shies away from actual writing or sharing anything personal or real. It is so aggressive and superficial, so poorly documented the index is useless. It brought out aggression in me as well as I just wanted to slam this book against the wall...feeling such outrage and disappointment in a subject I care deeply about as I am already adopting the raw foods approach. None of the info was new to me and some of it was falsely put forth such as on water. I have not even read the part about Spirulina and Chlorella because I can't get past the hype. I am instead blatantly faced with diagnosing the intrusion ie: why is this author so insecure he must write this way and what a detriment his insecurity is doing to this cause. In a week or so I might pick it up again. I do recommend going elsewhere for info in here.

As far as recipes go he offers nothing. It is true that with this diet one needs to be creative and seek out tasty pairings and condiments, seeds, nuts, dried fruits, asian sauces to enhance flavors ...this book tells you as much as i just have but using up much more space and costing a whole more.

This book is especially essential for anyone who wants a good grounding in maintaining or restoring their health. It is basic language so anyone can understand, yet has information you will not find in many books.

Water or where to obtain it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great read, but with "junk science", March 11, 2008

This review is from: Achieving Great Health -- How Spirulina, Chlorella, Raw foods and Ionized Water Can Make You Healthier than You Have Ever Imagined In 90 Days or Less (Paperback)
I believed for a time that the raw food movement was the best thing out there to restore you health, but it is taking a good thing a little too far. If your into the raw food, and/or the ionized water, as I was then this is for you. However, if your scouring the net for health info, then realize that Ionized water is based on "junk" science. How did God design water to be purified and drank? Look at something like the Wellness filter instead. "Water is purified by stone". Just like reverse osmosis water, ionized water wastes about half your water.
It was funny for a time we were wasting 3/4's of our water. The RO water system wasted 1/2. Then, after remineralizing it, we wasted another half ionizing it! Look elsewhere.

Update: Feb 10'

I've recently rediscovered how good the chlorella and spirulina make me feel. I've ordered a couple of 16oz jars from Hawaiian Pacifica Spirulina by Nutrex. Just need to find the best chlorella now. But I'm still not sold completely on ionizing the water with an ionizer.
