Some excerpts from "Eat to Live"

"My clinical experience over the past ten years has shown me that
almost all the major illnesses that plague Americans are reversible
w i t h aggressive nutritional changes designed to undo the damage
caused by years of eating a disease-causing diet. The so-called balanced
diet that most Americans eat causes the diseases Americans get."

"If dangerous drugs were the only way for a person to gain relief from
suffering, we would be forced to accept the drawbacks of conventional
therapy for autoimmune illnesses. The reality is, however, that
dietary and nutritional interventions work for autoimmune diseases
such as rheumatoid arthritis.

"Caring for such patients has been a major portion of my work as
a physician for the past ten years. 1 have seen scores of rheumatoid
arthritis, lupus, and connective tissue disease patients recover completely
through these interventions. Many of my patients have also
made complete recoveries from allergies and asthma. Not every patient
obtains a complete remission, but the majority are able to avoid
the use of medication."

"Certainly, this method of healing is not for everybody. Some
would prefer to eat conventionally and take whatever medication is
indicated for their condition. That is their inalienable right. However,
it is also the right of sick and suffering individuals who seek a natural
approach to be aware of how effective aggressive nutritional interventions
can be."

--------------------------

I have cared for more than ten thousand patients, most of whom
first came to my office unhappy, sick, and overweight, having tried
every dietary craze without success. After following my health-andweight-
loss formula, they shed the weight they always dreamed of
losing, and they kept it off. For the first time in their lives, these
patients had a diet plan that didn't require them to be hungry all the
time.

Most patients who come to me say that they just can't lose
weight, no matter what they do. They are not alone. It is almost universally
accepted that obese patients cannot achieve an ideal weight
or even an acceptable weight through traditional weight-loss programs.
In one study of sixty overweight women who enrolled in a university
diet-and-exercise program, none achieved her ideal weight.

My diet plan and recipes are designed for the hardest cases and
those who have failed to lose the desired weight on other plans. Following
the dietary advice offered in this book, you will achieve remarkable
results, regardless of your experience elsewhere. Weight
loss averages fifteen pounds the first month and ten pounds each
month thereafter. Some people lose as much as a pound a day. There
is no hunger, and you can eat as much food as you desire (usually
more food than you were eating before). It will work for everyone.

My patients experience other benefits as well. Many of them
once suffered from chronic diseases that required multiple medications.
A substantial number of my patients have been able to discontinue
their medications as they recover from angina, high blood
pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, asthma, fatigue, allergies, and
arthritis (to name just a few). More than 90 percent of my diabetic
patients who were on insulin at the time of their first visit got off all
insulin within the first month.

--------------------------------

Here is how the book works: Chapters one through four, considered
together, are designed to be a comprehensive overview of human
nutrition. The foundation of your success is based on the
scientific information contained in these four chapters. In chapter
one, you will see the problems with the standard American diet and
learn how our food choices have the power to either cut short or add
many years to our life. You may think you know all this, but let me
surprise you with all that you don't know. Chapter two explains why
obesity and chronic disease are the inevitable consequences of our
poor food choices. I explain the link between low-nutrient foods and
chronic disease/premature death as well as the connection between
superior health/longevity and high-nutrient foods. In chapter three
you will learn about those critical phytochemicals and the secret foods
for both longevity and weight control. You will also learn why trying
to control your weight by eating less food almost never works. The
final chapter of this section of the book explains the problem with a
diet rich in animal products and puts into perspective all the misleading
advertising claims about foods that people have accepted as
truth.

The next two chapters apply the concepts learned in the first four
chapters by evaluating other diet plans and tackling many of the current
controversies in human nutrition. Chapter five considers many
popular weight-loss plans, giving you an in-depth understanding of
their pros and cons. It is essential to have a thorough understanding
of all scientific claims in this field because many people have become
thoroughly confused by misinformation. Chapter six deepens your
knowledge of the critical issues in order to understand the accurate
information that is essential for maintaining your weight loss over
the long term — your most important goal.

Chapter seven illustrates the power of the Eat to Live diet to reverse
illness and provides instruction on how to apply this plan to
remedy your health problems and find your ideal weight. Applying
the Eat to Live formula to reverse and prevent heart disease, autoimmune
illnesses, and so much more opens your critical eye to a
new way of looking at your well-being. Health care becomes selfcare,
with food your new weapon to prevent and defeat illnesses.
This one is a key chapter for everyone, not just for those with chronic
medical problems but for all who want to live a longer, healthier life.

Chapters eight, nine, and ten put the advice into action and
teach you how to make the healthy eating plan of this book taste
great. In Chapter eight I explain the rules for swift and sustained
weight loss and give you the tools you need to adjust your diet to
achieve the results you desire. It offers guidelines and a set program
that allows you to plan your daily menus. Chapter nine contains
menu plans and recipes, including the more aggressive six-week
plan designed for those who want to lose weight quickly, as well as
vegetarian and non vegetarian options. Frequently asked questions
and answers are put forth in chapter ten, and I provide more practical
information to aid you in your quest to regain your health.

It is my mission and my hope to give everyone the tools to
achieve lifelong slimness and radiant health. Read on and learn how
to put my health formula to work for you.

You may already know that the conventional "solution" to being
overweight — low-calorie dieting — doesn't work. But you may not
know why. It is for this simple yet much overlooked reason: for the
vast majority of people, being overweight is not caused by how much
they eat but by what they eat. The idea that people get heavy because
they consume a high volume of food is a myth. Eating large amounts
of the right food is your key to success and is what makes this plan
workable for the rest of your life. What makes many people overweight
is not that they eat so much more but that they get a higher
percentage of their calories from fat and refined carbohydrates, or
mostly low-nutrient foods. This low-nutrient diet establishes a favorable
cellular environment for disease to flourish.
