This review is from: Anti-Arthritis Diet: Increase Mobility and Reduce Pain with This 28-Day Life-Changing Program (Paperback)
The cover leads one to believe that there is a 'plan' for beating arthritis in 28 days--no.--- only a plan that a clever and catchy title will sell a book. I have done a lot of reading,and there are diet guidelines for reducing arthritis symptoms (acid/akaline balance in food, especially from the Edgar Cayce readings). There is no 'list' of foods to eat,or avoid in this book. The book is 90% recipies---ones that do look very tasty,but ones that could be used for any 'healthy' diet. I mean, if you ate this way a number of diseases;cancer,heart disease etc. would be eased, so why is this book particular to arthritis? As for the '28 day hype'--you would have to follow all the 3 meals a day recipies--for 28 days. Does anyone have the time to follow recipies for 3 meals a day every day--I mean these are all recipies--no guidelines as in 'eat any fruit-- except,don't eat red meat" etc.The recipies are all for 4 portions--so what if you live alone,no one else has arthritis in your household--I guess you just freeze the rest. They also advise "excercise"--but don't list or show any.Since they do not give you a list of foods to avoid or encourage--how is this to help your arthitis??Only that this is a low-calorie/fat plan--so you could lose weight and that would be less strain on your joints.There are so many other better books out there for arthritis--I learned nothing new here--except that some people will do anything to sell books.
