5.0 out of 5 stars a wake up call to modern misleading food 23 July 2009
By Janet Harvey
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
another review stated this was a con for losing weight. I see no splurge to advocate this as a quick fix for overweight people, It is however informative, perhaps too scientific but if you'r like me you need the full facts then very good to validate questions you have. I bought this as a guide for health from the inflamatory conditions point of view. Although foods refered to can be "American" anyone already aware of food should be able to follow. It is about time we paid heed to the junk we put down our throats because some fat cat has paid advertisers to entise and blind us with jargon and actualy mislead by prevaricaton those of us who think "it must be good for me it has no this ot no that" : without paying heed to the small print that informs that although there is nothing artificial its full of something that is processed beyond recognition to the point it is a useless and unhealthy product for your body to injest and that other ingredients are left out of the advertising for us to make an un informed choice about. Read this and learn to pay proper attention to food labels only buy what is good for you help your body and let the fact cats dupe someone else and learn to stop sellig us junk because we have learned to read the labels on food and see what is really in them and how unhealthy damaging they really are. everyone who has to supermarket shop because they dont have farmers markets on their doorstep should have a copy of this as a healthy reference book to keeping themselves free from modern junk which unawares we inflict on ourselves.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good sense eating - backed by research 9 Jun 2005
By S. Lyons - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
What I really like about this book is that the claims are backed by research. There are pages and pages of endnotes in the back of the book that reference the studies -- from reputable sources such as the Journal of the American Medical Assoc., and Harvard.

I am a 40 year old, type II diabetic with high blood pressure. I have now been on the diet for 2 weeks and my sugar levels are under very good control. I have also lost 8 pounds. (I haven't yet checked the blood pressure)

Another positive is that this diet isn't so restrictive that you can't stay on it. It is a common sense, practical approach to eating and exercise. I don't have to give up coffee, wine, and even the occasional beer or two. Also, it's ok to cheat on occasion.

The back of the book is loaded with recipes. The publisher info listed above says 280 pages, but my book is 378 pages. The cover looks exactly the same, so maybe the 280 is a typo.

Anyway, if you are looking for a good approach to eating, getting healthy and losing weight, buy this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Ounce of Prevention Is Worth A Pound of Cure 2 Jun 2005
By J. Campbell - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
I read about this book in the newspaper and bought two for friends who have MS. Before sending one of the copies away, I decided to take a quick peek, but of course, I thought I didn't need to read it, because I am very healthy. Once started, though, I couldn't stop until I had finished. By then, a light bulb of awareness had flashed on my mental screen--if this can do so much for someone with a compromised system, imagine what following this lifestyle will do to preserve the good health I presently enjoy but admittedly take for granted. I headed out to the local bookseller for another copy and plan to dog-ear much of my own copy. An exceptionally easy to follow diet and exercise plan; a well organized book.

5.0 out of 5 stars common sense to being healthy 6 Jun 2005
By Marci Sloane - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
This book is certainly one of the "diet" books people should be reading. Inflammation is the cause of most of the diseases that plague America. The Larson's have provided the anti-inflammatory diet to ward off diseases and help to put our bodies in a stronger state to fight diseases or conditions we may already have. Nutrition doesn't always fit everyone. Stress reduction is also part of keeping the immune system strong to fight diseases/conditions. Combining the delicious, yet wholesome, foods in the Gold Coast Cure with a healthy attitude and a belief that if we take control over our lives we have a better chance.......common sense right????...........there is absolutely nothing to lose and everything to gain. I have spoken to several people with MS who have seen terrific improvements in their health after a few short weeks of eating wholesome foods. Omitting processed/refined foods and replacing them with wholesome foods is the only way I recommend eating to my patients. I am a registered dietitian and certified diabetes educator. This is one book I do recommend everyone read whether or not you have a debillitating disease right now or not!
