Superb: holistic perspective with clear explanations -- includes practical recipes and simple exercises

Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2017

Verified Purchase

A real treat to read - holistic, practical, beautiful photos, and includes simple, quick exercises that can be done throughout the day (to help with blood flow and metabolizing foods).
Pioppi Diet also includes clear, simple explanations of key biological processes involved in health and metabolism.
The section on reducing stress is the best thing that I've read on that general topic.

I'll be giving several copies as gifts, because it's an excellent resource.

What's the matter with Dr. Malhotra's text?

(1) There are a number of Blue Zones in which healthy, active centarians abound. I think it's unrealistic for any author to focus on a single group in making recommendations for improved health.

(2) A more realistic approach is to cite [A] analyses made of various such groups, as well as; [B] any special knowledge of the author; and [C] the results of scientific studies.

(3) Also, it's unreasonable to assume that "everything" about the Pioppi livestyle aids weight loss and health, as well as avoidance of heart disease and Type 2 diabetes. Citing scientific studies would have permitted the author to comment on Pioppi diet and lifestye that do "not" foster good health (but are neutralized by the generally healthy Pioppi lifestyle).

Here are two (2) books that stand head-and-shoulders above "The Pioppi Diet," and I assure you there are more:

- "How Not To Die" by Dr. Michael Gregor;
- "Becoming Vegan: The Complete Reference" by Brenda Davis.

Okay, so both authors advocate veganism. And I admit veganism didn't originally turn-me-on. (Now my altogether traditional, primary physician has stopped scowling and proclaimed the changes in my cholesterol and other test results "amazing.") But that's not my point. By way of example, Dr. Greger's text cites and analyzes numerous studies of centarian societies, and it contains approximately 2,400 footnotes that reference an astonishing number of studies of such societies, supplements, and countless other asides. It is a brilliant reference book. And, frankly, a pretty hard-read. But worth it.

I'm not saying that Dr. Malhotra should advocate veganism, and I'm certainly not saying that he needed to cite 2,400 references. But I "am" saying that of the 5 or 6 books on improving my health that I bought, this is the only one that makes me feel I wasted my money.

For those that have seen "The Big Fat Fix" movie, this book expands on it. It's not a "diet", it's a lifestyle that can help you live longer and healthier. Well written, easy to read, easy to implement. Not sure why it hasn't gotten a wider distribution in the U.S., I had to order my copy from the U.K. Great info for people interested in following a low carb or ketogenic Mediterranean diet and lifestyle.

Excellent Book!

Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2017

Verified Purchase

This is one of the best books I have ever read in the area of health promotion. I have been reviewing research on lifestyle strategies for promoting cardiovascular health for 20 years. The Lyon study, one of many referenced in this excellent book suggested that significant reductions in rates of heart disease and stroke might be possible through the right diet. In this "game changing" book, cardiologist, Dr. Aseem Malhotra, shares a wealth of cutting edge research on nutrition, and lifestyle strategies that can help all of us swiftly improve well-being, and our potential health outcomes. I have already put many of these strategies into practice. I highly recommend this book.

Content of book excellent, but not a quality "book"

Reviewed in the United States on August 27, 2020

Verified Purchase

This review has nothing to do with the content of the book, as I have yet to read it and I already love the author. However, the book looks like it was republished with newspaper! The cover mimics the actual US version, but this is def from another country. A pricing sticker was on it that said 399.00 RHPHL (or similar, was faded). Very shady! Amazon--make it transparent if something we are buying isn't coming from within the US.

A sensory read!

Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2017

I could almost picture what life would be like in Pioppi! I could smell and taste the food in the air that is how well it was described. I will be trying more to implement these guidlines in my life from now on. This illustrations were very handy for the the exercises, I like a book to have detailed pictures throughout. The recipes sound delicious and the food is everything I love but I have been too scared to eat more of.

Be your own best advocate and read and research

I appreciated the research studies shared in this book and what I have personally researched over the past 8 years in regards to disease progression. It's unfortunate that our food industry's products do not corroborate with the research findings and that our youth in America is expected to have a shortened life expectancy because of the increase of disease.

Challenges the ongoing view that saturated fats are not good for our bodies

Reviewed in the United States on June 21, 2018

Verified Purchase

Well-written, interesting, helpful, with an in-depth discussion of nutritional value of foods. Challenges the ongoing view that saturated fats are not good for our bodies. Emphasizes the problems that come with over indulgence in sugar and carbs. A way of living that is healthy, as in Pioppi, rather than simply diet, is encouraged. Good book.

A book for health that has improved my life

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 5, 2018

Verified Purchase

Yes I’ve lost a considerable amount of weight but the main things I’ve gained from this book and the eating recommendations are no more IBS or feeling internally inflamed every day, clearer skin, more energy and better moods.
I also enjoyed reading about Pioppi and their lifestyle, sure some of it feels unattainable if you’re on a hamster wheel of work etc but acknowledging that we have a lot to learn about various areas of life, in our food and environment, is vital if we want to age healthily.
I have a history of type 2 diabetes in my family and I really believe cutting out refined carbs and sugar has improved my health in the short- and long-term.
I also have endometriosis and even my periods and PMS are better: less stomach cramps and general bodily pain. The reason I’ve knocked off a star is because the book is entirely male-focused (don’t care if people read this as a feminist comment, it’s just a fact) and thus doesn’t acknowledge the differing physical and hormonal needs between men and women.
Yes this is anecdotal evidence but I feel hugely better so would recommend this book and concept to everyone openminded enough to try it. I’d love to meet a naysayer who has actually tried the darn thing.

Unmet expectations - regretted buying it

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 20, 2019

Verified Purchase

No value at all in this book - not for the lay person (who may find the amount of information overwhelming) and not for the scientist (who will find the quality of the information and referencing poor and the text unreliable). It is written dogmatically - as a preacher’s sermon (or, in this case, two preachers). The writing is disjointed. The main content you buy the book for - diet advice - is a handful of pages. This is not the Pioppi diet. They don’t use avocados or coconut oil in Pioppi. They also don’t base their diet on Indian spices (clearly Aseem’s addition). It’s a con. There is no mention of pulses in the book! Should we eat them or not? Aseem’s weekly menu includes them but the diet pages of the book don’t give any clear guidance. Lots of punctuation errors sack the proof-reader. Poor effort guys! As a University Senior Lecturer I give you an F - try again!

Enjoyable diet that works

Good book and an easy read: the recipes are good and very tasty. My husband and I did the 21 day plan and lost 12lbs and 9 lbs respectively. The main thing for me was reducing my body fat to within the healthy zone and my BMI down to 22. Will definitely adopt the principles of the book. Would recommend reading the science before jumping to the recipes

I lost 13 kg in 3 months,along with exercise - at least 30minutes walking daily. No carbs at all, no sweet things at all. Lots of green vegetables, and one day fasting. Had high blood sugar and was reversed, back to normal. I decided to lose weight as I did not want to be diabetic, and it works for me! I really have changed my eating. I appreciate it might not work for everyone, but I am overweight and the advice, 'you should not feel hungry' was good for me. Christmas has been hard going though! Will be stricter again.

Common sense that we choose to forget....

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 30, 2018

Verified Purchase

Very interesting! This book is about lifestyle as well as diet since it is the combination of the two that leads to health - as evidenced by the long-living citizens of Pioppi in Italy. It dispels some myths (such as about cholesterol and fats) and reminds us what healthy eating really should be about - fresh food and a total reduction in sugar intake! The book is easy to read, has summaries of the key point of each chapter at the end of the chapter and includes some lovely recipes. I would strongly recommend.
