So incredibly smart. Tremendous depth of research by very smart authors. I absolutely love that their thinking is presented with their recommendations so this is not just another attractive story. I was lucky enough to discover the first version soon after it was self published and adored it for the very high quality of thinking. Now they have a second edition by a major publisher and so it looks nicer and benefits from some refinement of their thinking and some additional material. I bought a few copies of the first addition (hardback and Kindle, and another hardback copy for my mom) and I've bought a few hardback copies of the second edition for myself and family. Planning to buy the Kindle version too, to see if it makes it easier to access the notes which are extensive, but were more directly accessible in the first edition. In the second edition they are published on line (see the web site PerfectHealthDiet.com which is an unbelievably great resource).

I've been following it since the first reading and I really love it, in many, many ways. My persistent acid-reflux improved markedly after eliminating grains. Their treatment of supplementation, especially enhanced in this new version, has changed my thinking and my actual practice. I've lost 20 pounds largely without trying or hunger. And it is a very comfortable, easy, and delicious way to eat. I highly recommend that you buy and read this book. It is a landmark!

2013 Nov 13 Update: I've now lost 30 pounds while eating very delicious meals, and never feeling deprived (except occasionally missing bread). I've been following the weight loss version of the diet with an emphasis on making sure I'm eating nutrient dense meals, and giving my body everything it needs but without excess. For the first time in decades my finger nails are grown out and strong. Previously frequent congestion has disappeared.
