Gary Price Todd was an ophthalmologist who discovred than many diseases of the eyes -- such as cataracts and macular degeneration -- could be treated effectively will appropriate nutritional supplements. From this important discovery he went on to learn that appropriate nutrients could prevent and even cure many other diseases, including heart disease. This book presents -- in very clear, readable language -- details of many of Dr. Todd's findings. It is an excellent place to start if you want to improve you health -- especially you eyesight -- with nutrition rather than undergo treatment with pharmaceutical drugs or sugery.

This book contains information of a highly respected ophthalmologist's successful treatment protocol of a disease considered "incurable": macular degenertion. It contains a list of the substances (mostly food supplements, vitamins, minerals etc. which he discovered that in combination could reverse (sometimes completely as in my husband's case) this dreaded disease about 88% of the time. I highly recommend that if you have this condition, get 2 copies and give one to your own ophthalmologist with the hope that he will be open to supervising this treatment using Dr. Todd's protocol. It requires a prescription thyroid medication (trademark: "cytomel") along with the relevant supplements. Highly readable with an explanation of the cause of this problem and other eye diseases that he has successfully treated but considered incurable by orthodoxy.

I am so glad to have discovered Gayle Reichler's ACTIVE WELLNESS! Not only does it offer helpful and accessible information on adopting a more healthy lifestyle, but the author's guidance is made all the more powerful by the fact that she followed the very same program herself. I have put my entire family on the Active Wellness Program - even my children. We have all struggled with our weight at one time or another, but since starting the program we have all lost weight and kept it off! We feel more energetic than ever. ACTIVE WELLNESS is a book for everyone concerned with getting and staying healthy. And we can all use a bit of help in that department!

Titus Foster a long-time devotee of Swami Prakashananda has done the world(All of us) the greatest service. He has brought to the world the wisdom and stories of one of the most loving compasssionate souls to ever walk this earth. In a world colored by hatred and prejudices of every kind. This man didnt live for name or fame or power.As he said,"I came for Love and Knowledge and service to humanity"- and he got it! After Muktanandas death, Baba took on the task of helping many of Muktanandas orphaned children continue their spiritual destiny under his compassionate wing. Being part of a large group of devotees around Muktananda, I had always wished for the close contact and training of a great being. In Prakashananda I found a simple loving presence of great light and over-whelming spiritual beauty.I had the Opportunity to live with Prakashananda and Titus off and own for years. It is of great importance that the genuine article is now available for everyone and my only wish is that Babaji now to enjoy the "Name and fame" that he ironically so deeply deserves in service to humanity.Thankyou Harihar!

This small book consists of a short biography of Swami Prakashananda (58 pages) plus a lot of parables he told as his way to answer to requests of his pupils. This Swami seems to have had a very "rich" life. Lot's of travels and deep spiritual insights. One would really like to know more about him, but since he was not in the limelight, nearly nothing has remained about his pilgrimages. Nevertheless, it shows one, that there are great souls out there, even if nearly unknown. In the later part of his life he was a pupil of Swami Muktananda, and one learns here, that Muktananda would have liked Prakashananda to become his successor, Prakashananda declined, and therefore Chidvilasanda and Nityananda have been choosen. As we know from other sources, Nityanda left the "position", so nowadays one hears only about Chidvilasananda, when it comes to SYDA Yoga. But Swami Prakashananda was a man of his own and basically a Shakta in his Temple Sapta Shring. The book is short, but touching and worth reading. The author lived with the Swami for eight years and tells the story without bringing himself into it, which is quite an achievement. Thank you Titus:-)

"All About Antioxidnts" is a "must read" for anyone who is serious about preventing, delaying and even reversing many of the 'degenerative' diseases (coronary artery disease, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, etc) that are due to destructive free radicals.

Dr. Passwater, who is one of the world's leading nutritional biochemical researchers, explains what free radicals are, what they do to the human body and how antioxidants help to prevent & even reverse free radical damage.

Every person, no matter how young or old they are, no matter how healthy they think they are, needs to understand that free radicals in the human body are unavoidable (even necessary for the immune system to fight off disease).

In this day & age of "hydrogenated oils" in our foods, chemicals in our drinking water & polluted air, your body is exposed to massive amounts of heart disease, cancer and Alzheimer's disease- causing free radicals.

Dr. Passwater explains what the most powerful & best researched antioxidants are, as well as how they function and work together as a "team" to protect against dreaded diseases.

"All About Antioxidants" makes a great 'beginner's guide' for anyone interested in learning about the true benefits of these essential nutrients.

If you want more detailed information about the individual antioxidants discussed in "All About Antioxidants",which ones to use to treat specific health problems, as well as dosaging information, I recommend you take a look at the following books - "The Healing Power of Vitamins, Minerals and Herbs" (Reader's Digest) and "Dr. Atkins Vita-Nutrient Solutions" (Firestone, Simon & Schuster).

richard a.passwater is one of the top leading expert researchers in the world in antioxidants. he began his experiments in antioxidants in 1970. in this pocket valuable book he represent to the reader the essence of the fighters against disease= the antioxidants, in a way that everyone can follow without beeing a doctor\biochemist.it shows the basics plus how the antioxidants substances work for us in the treatments against: heart-disease,cancer,aging,and the prevention of beeing ill. it is written in a very simple and joyable way. i recommand it!

I bought this because we (the two of us) eat like home made (I do) homemade dishes. I can control the salt and lose weight at the same time. Just started to look at it and my wife took it and found 34 recipes she wants me to try. This is going to work, for losing weight and not missing anything. Buy it!

I happened upon this book and thought I'd give it a shot. That was a year ago and I still use it a few times a week. The food is normal and delicious! My boyfriend loved almost everything I made from this book because it's stuff you would normally make. There are a few new things you will probably want to try, but also, if you have a favorite meal such as chicken cacciatore, beef stroganoff, or cheesecake this book has the recipe and shows you how to make it healthful and still delicious. I use the weight watchers points system and had no trouble converting recipes. It also gives exchange, fat and calorie values for dieters who use a different program. I highly recommend it! It's worth it!

While a lot of the material in this book is necessarily duplicated from other books published by D'Adamo in case the reader starts with this book, the real medical assistance offered has been very helpful to me - teaching me to manage my allergies proactively!

I cannot believe what a difference this book has made in my life. I did not realize how tired I was until I began following the guidance of this book in avoiding certain foods and including others in my diet. Within a week I was feeling better. I had no idea how tired and sluggish I had been--I have so much more energy now, particularly in the evenings when I was usually tired after coming home from work. I highly recommend that you try this book. It's easy to read and well worth the time and money.

One of the best books out there for people like me who are 'food challenged'. I have a myriad of health problems from indoor to outdoor, chemicals to foods...and when I found this book it was a real blessing. They cover everything. The recipes are awesome, the helpful guides are something everyone should carry around and get to know. A must for everyone who wants to better their knowledge and health. ;)

Overwhelmed by how to eat with food allergies? This book takes an easy, straight forward approach to buying, cooking and eating for a food allergy-free diet. Not everyone has the same food allergies, so these folks have substitutions right with each recipe. No need to second guess or hunt through other books trying to figure out what would work instead. They don't focus just on the major allergies (wheat, sugar, dairy, corn, soy, yeast). They cover a wide range of allergies. And their recipes are good. There's also a section that explains what food substitutes are out there and how to prepare them. For example, instead of wheat, there is oat, barley, rye, kamut, spelt, amaranth, teff, quinoa, etc.

This is an excellent buy for people who are looking for a way to remedy diabetes.

Ampalaya: Nature's Remedy for Type 1 & Type 2 Diabetes is a well-written book about a promising botanical called ampalaya in the Philippines, bitter melon in the U.S. and Momordica charantia by scientists. Written in Frank's crisp, engaging style, Ampalaya begins by delivering a good overview of the diabetes epidemic in the U.S., while also offering a fascinating, and colorful, historical chronicle on diabetes since ancient times. In addition to a well-referenced chapter on the research behind ampalaya and another on mini-case-histories, the book is jam-packed with practical, take-home information on: diabetes complications; reducing risk factors; taking care of your eyes, feet and kidneys; diet and nutrition in diabetes; overweight and exercise; and more. Frank pulls out all the stops when it comes to useful tips and lists of actionable suggestions, as well. All in all, this is much more than a health book about ampalaya; it is an invaluable resource for all people who are concerned about diabetes and interested in learning about a powerful variety of ways to improve their health and fend off the risk factors and symptoms associated with this epidemic disease.

He focuses on GETTING LEAN, not losing weight, and if your goal is to be healthy, you NEED this book!

After following the diet in this book I lost 43 pounds. The diet allows you to eat a lot of food and is easier to follow that stictly protein diets because you never totally feel deprived. You can have a little of every food type, just not together. I was able to stick to it for an extended period of time (about 1 1/2 years) and eat more food than I can normally eat. Unlike low fat diets (which sometimes caused a weight gain) this diet was painless and I never felt hungry. I supplemented with vitamins, but did not use all the supplements listed. It was the diet, and the addition of healthy oil to my diet that worked for me. The book was brief and easy to read. The diet was simple to follow. The biochemical information was valuable.
