Summary: Well worth the time and effort!
Comment: After listening to Gary Null on PBS, I bought the book to make needed changes in my lifestyle. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because I felt a lot of it was plain common sense we already know and I wanted more on the actual program he recommends. What I found invaluable were his specific directions as to menus, foods needed, when and why. After going through his recipes & eating plan, I made a shopping list and got what I needed at several of the whole food type stores near me. I did have to go to several stores to find the different grains though. If you are a meat and potatoes type of person, this book isn't for you but if you are a light meat eater or tend to be more vegetarian then you will feel 'at home'. The recipes are up to date and interesting so you aren't eating flavorless patties of something. Learning to cook more with grains I'd never used before was a learning experience for me and I was concerned about carbohydrates since I'm a Type II diabetic. My blood sugar readings did not go up as I feared perhaps because I found myself satisfied with smaller portions. Since I share my home with a companion rabbit I normally have a good supply of vegetables on hand & that did make it easier for me to make soups, casseroles, etc. I've been on his eating plan for almost 4 weeks now & feel 100% better & have more energy than before. I'm gradually losing weight as I continue yet do not feel 'hungry' ever. If you are willing to be flexible with changes in your eating habits and enjoy freshly made foods, this book is truly worth the time and effort. It takes time to go over the recipes and decide the ones you want and organize your shopping but having the protein powder supplements really helps. I absolutely love the chocolate flavored protein powder mixed with vanilla soy drink and enjoy it as a 'milkshake' whenever I want a treat. Above all, I found that what he suggests to eat, when to eat it and why made complete sense. Its a common sense book if you are serious about health and weight loss...not a fad diet.

Summary: Just saw special on PBS, for this title.
Comment: Gary is a compelling and powerful speaker when on camera. He has this strange sort of sniff/glare that happens when he makes a big point. All his body language is martial artistic ninety percent of the time and ten percent of the time does the body language match his lamentations about harmony. I sense a deep anger not forgiven in this individual, yet his advocacy is basically sound. I do agree with the other post that this is a suck in to buy more and more and more of Gary Null system, which is not pragmatically possible for most daily working people. This will sell to desperate people, though it was true that his basic assumptions are correct. The presentation was staged in such a way that only thoughtful, healthy, beautiful as they could make themselves people were in reaction shots to the pitch.
Gary needs to attempt some of the old fashioned snake oil salesmen and have a live subject, not just metaphorical proof. Gary should take five people, from poor neighborhoods, with two jobs, and giving eighty percent of their take home pay to a rich landlord, and document the transformation of their lives, not just a poster child type of clinical trial.

Summary: Simple, Excellent advice!
Comment: Dr. Nulls information is very accurate. As a nurse I see how the health of americans is going down the tube. The problem is with all the best advice we still have got to make an effort to change! Much like smoking, we know it's bad for us but so addicting or habit forming! Great Job ! Dr. Null! Sign me trying to take Doctors advice!
