We found this book very informative. It is well written and addresses the issues of good nutrition with an easy to follow eating plan. The chapter on hormones and weight gain and the chapter on Diabetes were both a help to our family. We look forward to enjoying better health in the years ahead.

I attended a lecture by Lorna R. Vanderhaeghe and I was compelled to get this book to have more detailed information about why I just don't seem to loose weight no mater what diet I am on. I started reading the book and it was one a-ha after another. There are so many eye opening facts and wonderful suggestions. I started doing them and my body is responding very well. I am so pleased that I went back and ordered 3 more for family and friends.
