Nutritarian Handbook and Andi Food Scoring Guide

This is a very compact paperback. So I thought the price was a little more than it should have been. But this book has really helped me a lot. I had been following the nutritarian diet for about a week before purchasing this book. My meals were pretty bland and uninteresting. This guide helped me to prioritize my foods much better. And the recipes are great. As a result of buying this book, I'm eating better and enjoying eating fruits and vegetables more. I have yet to see a recipe in there that I don't want to try.

This is a very detailed and complete book to help you learn how to eat better. We should be getting our nutrients form fruits and vegetables and not all of the toxic fast/processed food that we have been eating. When you think about all of the junk that goes into our food to make it taste like something, eating fruits and vegetables is easy and so much healthier for our bodies. I have lost weight, more energy, think clearer and just feel much better since I changed over to eating, fruits, vegetable, nuts and seeds.

I have seen Dr. Furman on many other media discussing health and, much moreso than any other "expert", I wholeheartedly agree with him. I bought this book one and only for the ANDI scores--which I found somewhat incomplete,Personally, aside, I recommend all Furman books as exceptionally insightful. I am a huge fan of his work. While the ANDI scores are exceptionally helpful (I've yet to see anyone else who provides anything even close to as useful), I thought they were a bit lacking in their volume.A better way to summarize would be to say it was exceptionally useful and I recommend for everyone, anywhere, anytime. To me, the scores should be taught in school, but, regretfully, they're not. However, I hope a next edition will have more scores for more foods.

The more I read Dr. Fuhrman's books, the more I realize how brilliant his suggestions are. For the record, of course, they are not that brilliant. Dr. Paul Bragg was saying essentially the same thing for years. However, Dr. Fuhrman makes these same concepts so much easier to understand. In particular, is the way he presents his ideas in "Dr. Fuhrman['s]™ Nutritarian Handbook & and ANDI Food Scoring Guide". It's a very short book but it distills his concepts into bite-sized nuggets. Having now read several of his books, this current one breaks his program down into its fundamental steps: Eat a diet that is 90-95%% vegan, fruits, vegetables, beans, nuts, and seeds (including sprouts), and all other health issues will resolve themselves. It doesn't get any more essential than that.

If you have Type II Diabetes or are morbidly obese, Dr. Fuhrman's program is a good thing, but if you're just looking to get healthy and lose 20 lbs, you can use this as a suggestion more than a rulebook.People are meant to eat meat and fat and neither one of those can hurt us. What really kills us is grains, legumes and other complex carbs that cause the body to produce insulin and pack on fat. The liver is where your high cholesterol comes from and lots of whole grains will cause it to increase. I'm following a Paleo diet and I got this book because it gives good analyses of the different food options and I can choose which vegetables, fruits and meats I need to flesh out my diet plan.If you're on Dr. Fuhrman's diet already, this book is a good buy, but even if you're not, it has info on making the best possible choices.

gift for friend using it for health

This is a good book on nutrition. It is a small book filled with good nutritional information. Not like some books I have read filled with useless information.

This book as a ton of really helpful info, written in short, straightforward points. It's also a fast, easy ready and very beneficial for the beginner trying to learn new ways to incorporate more nutrients into the diet. It's super simple to understand and highly recommended to help put you on the right path towards living a more healthy lifestyle.

Although hard to stick to -- good advice for healthy eating...

Das Buch ist informativ, einfach geschrieben, sehr verständlich.Ein interessanter Ansatz zur Ernährung.Am Ende ist Selbstdisziplin nur durch lesen leider trotz tolle Einsichten immer noch nicht zu schaffen...

I first became aware of Dr Fuhrman as he was Joe Cross's doctor in Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead and he has his own inspiring way of eating - since reading his book and also the Nutritarian Handbook I have become a Nutritarian most of the time and it is a sensible way of eating it you want to eat food rather than just juice as Joe did. I try to do a bit of both. I can recommend both books to you but I bought them for my Kindle but now wish (if they were available in book form) i had bought them as a book as i have an original Kindle which is black and white and no colour - the highlighted bits where obviously in colour and you dont get the same effect in black and white - but i am glad I got them and if you are interested in eating only nutrients you will find this interesting

Dr Fuhrman is such an authority on eating healthy and improving your health. Forget the fad diets....this is a plan for eating well all of the time.

As above. The book is all amazing!
