When I picked this book up, I was looking for some information on how to combine different foods together.

Good or bad, I didn't get that. What I got instead, was a book explaining the "art" of eating. What the different food types are, how to eat them, why to chew, what causes immune system problems, parasites etc. Stuff your parents should have taught you, but didn't. (or maybe they did, but you ignored their wisdom).

I think everybody over 200 pounds needs to read this book. I really enjoyed it!

My only shot at the book, is that is contains 2 paragraphs of info on Food Combining. A better title should have been "How to feed your stomuch"

It's a small book with some basic quick info. I also found that the book comes off as if digesting is extremely tiresome to our body in a fear mongering manner. Some information I find completely pointless & made me lose credit for the author. Especially Page 101 Digestive Wisdom.

It's a waste of about 8 pages. Probably made to humor his fans & feed his racism to meat consumption. He makes a very dumb statement to defend his vegetarian dogma. Pg 106: "Go to a zoo. Look at the animals. The carnivores are prowling & growling. They are restless & angry. Now look at the sheep,cows,horses & elephants. They sit in peace & eat from your hand."

This is flaw & weak statement made by the author. The herbivore animals he mentioned are all domesticated & have been for years. I would love to see the author try to feed a wild hippo from his hand or a bull. Also my dog is a carnivore, he gladly eats from my hand & is at peace for about 16hours of the day. The rest of the day, he wants to play.

There is another statement on page 107 " You can eat half a potato,put the other half back in the ground & you'll get more potatoes. Try this with a piece of meat & see what you get."

This is another blockhead statement. Potatoes are stem tubers. Which is supposed to reproduce. That potato comment can be argued with pretty much any other fruit or vegetable, but he fiercely choose meat.

After reading those short sighted statements I lost all respect for the author & his works. He lacks basic knowledge of zoo animals & tubers. I bought this book to understand food combining & digesting. Not for it's dull vegetarian agenda.

Love this book,espically the food combining tables and the easy read to find what I am looking for. I quickly found out Broccoli is a starchy vegetable and I thought it was non-starchy.

I initially found this book in a small health food's store in Rapid City, SD called "Staple and Spice." I was just browsing the small book section looking for resources to resolve my aching gut. This book is short, very well organized and simply explains basic digestion concepts. I took this on my first deployment in Iraq; it was more popular than any other reading matieral circulating throughout our mixed-service Brigade. Now on my second deployment, it is just as popular so I bought it as my departing gifts to others. Myself and many others have read and re-read this book. It has allayed may aching bellies here, especially with deployment foods.

This has been a great book for understanding the concepts of food combining. The guide lines are easy to follow. I would recommend this book for those looking to change their life style of eating habits.

Whenever I feel the need to upgrade my health a bit, I go back to proper food combining. This book has really good info on a really good way of eating. Should stick with it always.

This book is the "KEY" to learning the "whys" of body malfunction and obesity. Simply written for the nutritional novice.

Small, but packed with great information on food combining. I am new at this, and this book presented the info in an easily understandable way, and it has become a good reference to look back at when I have questions.

I bought this book out of desperation. Although I have learned some things over the years about digestion, I was still having problems. It set the record straight as far as how I should be eating. No wonder so many Americans are dying like flies of colon cancer, stomach cancer and like diseases. How sad! I am going to start today to incorporate the methods in this book!

This book is excellent. Easy to read and understand. If you want to improve your health and maybe suffering with your digestion... This book is for you! Stop taking OTC drugs, prescriptions too..just by learning that the foods you eat are what maybe at fault! Our bodies can handle a lot...but the older we get, not so much! We can't keep doing what we did in our youth, with all the junk, chemical and preservatives we are hurting our bodies...just get back to basics and read this book and treat your body better. Learn the simple things with every day food that is grown from the ground and not packaged in a bag, box or can....shop at the grocery store from only the outer walls...nothing from the interior isles... Let's see if you will feel better?
