The Hauser Diet caught my attention because of Dr. Hauser's success using his injection technique to repair my knee (Prolotherapy). I got my leg strength back with no arthroscopic surgery. Now I'm looking for solutions to low energy. I want the energy of a finely tuned Ferrari.

Like the Hauser's, I too have completed marathons, triathlons, and century bike rides. I'm a 55-year-old student of nutrition and sports training. I learn from athletes like Lance Armstrong and his coach, Chris Carmichael. These athletes backup their ideas about nutrition and training regimens with astounding results.

Athletes write the Hauser Diet too. They research for ways to optimize health, energy and human performance. Research shared in this book broadened my awareness of foods' impact upon my energy. If I knew specifically what foods to choose to live fast and strong why shouldn't I choose well? The authors use a clever analogy to animals' diets to show that humans too must make food choices to optimize energy and health. Then they show in plain English why for my `diet type' certain foods are best for me. I am excited about implementing the research found in The Hauser Diet.

I see a local Holistic Physician. I have had the food allergy testing, hormonal testing, glucose tolerance testing, adrenal testing, thyroid testing, assorted blood work, and ph testing performed. I was found to have celiac, among other things. I was following the diet and supplement plan prescribed by my HP, but something was missing. I found the Hauser diet as an application on the iphone, ordered the book, and here I am. I found out I was an Otter. I have been following the Otter diet for almost a week now. I do have more energy, and less all over aches from work stress. If I stray from that diet, I feel more tired, weak, and achey. I can easily maintain my weight, which has remained normal since I cut out gluten and corrected my malabsorption in October. This diet is really a lifestyle change that is worth a try if you are sick of quick fixes and are in it for the long run. It is based on scientific testing and will require the help of your physician for best results.

Doctors do not get any nutrition training at medical school. Dr Hauser is no exception, but with the experience of his wife as a nutritionist and his testing
using the respiratory exchange ratio (RER) they have put together a book that makes a lot of sense regarding the different types of people and the five different types of diets that they define. The one area where I think this book is remiss in their coverage of soy. Vegetarians who rely on soy as their only protein source are jepordizing their health. There are studies that show that a diet with soy as
their primary protein source results in osteoporosis. Soy tends to interfere with
the bodies ability to use calcium. Other than this, this book presents the most complete information on dieting than any other diet book that I have read. For a
very common sense approach to dieting, I highly recommend this book.

This book is absolutely amazing! It not only gives simple to understand explanations of why your body needs to eat certain kinds of food for optimal health, it gives you sample menus and recipes to get you on your way to implementing this new way of eating. The icing on the cake (sorry) is that the recipes are fantastic! I have made several recipes and they are so delicious that now recipes from other cookbooks pale in comparison and are disappointing to the palate. Eating healthy can be a wonderful experience, and this book shows you how. It's a must have for any person wanting to improve their health.

This is the book I am looking for. I now understand why some food does not agree with me or do not feel good after eating certain foods. I love the fact that this book is easy to read and easy to understand. It is very well "put together" :)

This book is easy to read, beautiful to look through, and makes me feel good after using it! Wouldn't it be wonderful if all things in life were so pleasant? My husband actually cooked dinner for the family the first night it arrived...and it was delicious and easy for him to prepare.

I found this book very informative. The recipes I have tried have been excellent. I would highly recomend this book to those who are concerned with healthy living.

Metabolic typing has been around for several years, but never before has there been a fun way to make it understandable to the average person--until now! Marion Hauser and Nicole Baird have divided up the various eating types according to an animal:

Lion, Otter, Bear, Monkey and Giraffe

They explain how each one eats and what you can do to see which animal you are. I'm a Lion and love my healthy meat-based high-fat, moderate protein, low-carb diet to be strong, healthy and vibrant. Which animal are you?

Get THE HAUSER DIET and understand exactly what YOU need to do to eating optimally healthy for you.

I have been to see the Hausers at thier office and they really walk the walk with this book. I believe there are many roads to health, and The Hauser diet is most definately one of them. The recipes are really great tasting and easy to follow too.

A very informative well written book. Although I am not a medical doctor by profession, this book provided the information I required so that I will be able to make an informed decision that will allow me to avoid surgery. I would strongly recommend (in fact I have done this with several friends) anyone who is considering any joint relacement or back surgery to read this book and explore the proposed alternative(s) before submitting to any form of surgery.
I plan to explore the use of prolotherapy to correct a back problem and am currently in the process of finding a practitioner of this procedure in Western Canada.
