Hopping on "popular book title" train
I bought the book to investigate improvements to my diet, especially to increase the plant parts of my meals. I found the book highly confusing, jumping from one end of the topic to another and using a lot of 'should', 'may' or other highly ambiguous recommendations. I also didn't like the interchangeable use of specific terms such as 'a diet is too high on fat....' which...

Hopping on "popular book title" train, May 18, 2010

This review is from: Vegetarian Sports Nutrition (Paperback)

I bought the book to investigate improvements to my diet, especially to increase the plant parts of my meals. I found the book highly confusing, jumping from one end of the topic to another and using a lot of 'should', 'may' or other highly ambiguous recommendations. I also didn't like the interchangeable use of specific terms such as 'a diet is too high on fat....' which doesn't clarify what type of fat. Or 'associated with greater risk for chronic diseases', which doesn't clarify if the author is talking about heart and vascular disease or cancer or whatever.

As a summary, I would say the book is full of popular mambo jambo with no clear precise scientific organization of topics or recommendations.

Waste of time!

Confusing information, November 4, 2008

By	Camille Scielzi "Wellness Coach" (Socorro, NM United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Vegetarian Sports Nutrition (Paperback)

My husband and I have been ovo-lacto vegetarians for 13 years and have been reviewing vegetarian meal plans for quite a while. The information in this book reads like a stream of consciousness journal and at times the author contradicts herself. We did not find her argument and meal plans she presents as something we wanted to implement. Since she refers to the USDA pyramid for Vegetarians, it is just as useful to create a profile on that website.
