Average Reviews:

This book is 237 pages too long. It is an infomercial. A reader has to wade through empty paragraph after empty paragraph trying to get the essence of the book. I'll save you the money: eat a high fiber, low fat, carbohydrate diet and exercise for 10 minutes three times a day, 5 days a week. One workout should be aerobic, one should be strength-training and one should be stretching. You get your metabolism going stretching the exercise you do over the course of the day. The End!

Kathleen is not only an excellent chef and host of a motivational Food Network show (Cooking Thin), but an inspiration. She has lost a lot of weight and kept it off. Her cookbooks aren't JUST cookbooks. In the first section of each book, she has a "heart-to-heart" with her readers about her philosophy on healthy eating and her own keys to weight loss.
I have lost 30 pounds so far using Chef Kathleen's warm yet no-nonsense philosophy. More importantly, I have maintained a healthy lifestyle (and my weight loss) for over 2 years now. If you want to get off that diet roller coaster once and for all and make changes you can live with for life, this book is for you.

Joy's LIFE Diet: Four Steps to Thin Forever Review

Joy's LIFE Diet: Four Steps to Thin Forever
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This diet book is full of the advice you already know, while all true, I felt it was redundant. There are many diets out there that have the same script: eat this, don't eat that, here is a daily menu to chose from, cut out sweets, don't eat fat, the first few weeks are limited choices -- all this is the basis for weight watchers, south beach, etc. I liked the testimonies and I am sure the plan works because it is all the common sense that a plethora of diets before it have touted.
I am not saying it is a bad book, it just doesn't really contribute anything new to the guidelines of how to live at a healthy weight. The cover and description acts like all this info is ground-breaking. It IS a book full of good advice and guidelines, a revolutionary diet that will blow your mind and make dieting obsolete it is not.

Dr. David Katz's Flavor-Full Diet: Use Your Tastebuds to Lose Pounds and Inches with this Scientifically Proven Plan Review

Dr. David Katz's Flavor-Full Diet: Use Your Tastebuds to Lose Pounds and Inches with this Scientifically Proven Plan
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The core concept of The Flavor Full Diet is one that has apparently been researched for quite a while, but few of us know of - that of "sensory specific satiety". This refers to the role of flavor, and specifically, many different flavors (sweet, salty, bitter, etc) combined in one meal causing our hypothalamus to be over-stimulated. The net result is that too many flavors increase our appetite and leave us wanting to eat more food, even if our stomachs are full.
I've always wondered why I feel still feel hungry after eating several different courses, or at family gatherings during the holidays. Now I have the scientific reason behind my cravings and am learning how to curb my appetite by sticking closer to one "flavor category." I can still enjoy sweet foods, for example, I just try not to eat them after a salty meal.
Dr. Katz makes the concept very easy to understand and with his wife Catherine, have supplied some great recipes that are easy to make. Though I don't have kids, the recipes seem quite family friendly - and as the book doesn't limit what you eat, only how you eat it - I think this eating plan will be very attractive to people.
I deeply respect Dr. Katz' work, as he is one of a few leaders in this industry that is not just writing books on how to improve your health, but is advocating through research, policy and program initiatives to improve health across the nation. Thanks Dr. Katz for an excellent book!

Family Circle Eat What You Love & Lose: Quick and Easy Diet Recipes from Our Test Kitchen Review

Family Circle Eat What You Love and Lose: Quick and Easy Diet Recipes from Our Test Kitchen
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have had this book for 3 weeks now. I absolutely love this book! The diet plan and the story line for the 6 people who lost weight on this plan were great. But the one thing you will treasure this book for are those recipies! I have been using a similar eating plan on my own (3 meals and 2 snacks that equal about 1500 calories) but I was really struggling with great tasing dinners that didnt bump me over my calories allowed for dinner. I must admit that I primarily have used the dinner recipies, however I did enjoy every breakfast, lunch, and desert recipie I made as well. There are excellent versions of "comfort" foods, as well as new twists and alternative ways to prepare your standard 350 calorie meal or snacks. The ingredients are things that you can find in your local market as well. I havent eaten the same meal twice yet, although many are sure to be repeated.
The best compliment I can give to this book is that it is teaching me new recipies that I WANT to eat. I feel like Im not on a diet - but on to a new way of preparing and enjoying what I eat. I really recommend this book to any one interested in loosing weight. I have already lost 8 pounds and I feel like its really gone for good this time. This book is definitely for people who love to cook and want to learn how to do it in a way that is healthy and satisfying. It helped me to break out of my old cooking habits that were keeping my dinners way too fattening and my portion sizes way too big. You can use the diet plan in the book as a guide and tailor it to your life, what you like, and what works for you.
The only drawback was that alot of the recipies were for 6 servings so I did have to do a little math to scale it to my family. hehe But that wasnt a big price to pay when the result was a healthy and great tasting dinner that kept me on my target calories.

Estrogen: The Natural Way: Over 250 Easy and Delicious Recipes for Menopause Review

Estrogen: The Natural Way: Over 250 Easy and Delicious Recipes for Menopause
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I was very enthusiastic regarding this book. The recipes were very well done and I did find great relief from menopausal symptoms. However, while traveling I relied on several "portable" flax seed foods for my daily "portions" for estrogen. Shortly thereafter, I was found to have a very irregular heart beat. I have no history of heart problems and, in fact, am an athlete. Research into flax seed showed that more than 2 ounces or 60 grams a day should not be taken internally. It can cause increased respitory rate, gasping, staggering, or convulsions. In early history, it was used as a heart medication - indicating a heart link. There is no warning in the book and in fact, the book encourages higher doses. Please use extreme caution in using these flax seed foods. Use only small amounts per day. There are beneficial amounts (very low doses), but it is toxic in small amounts as well if consumed regularly. There are no warnings on the flax seed bags in stores.

The New American Diet System Review

The New American Diet System
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Dr. and Mrs Connor are, respectively, a world-class lipidologist who teaches at the Oregon Health Sciences University, and an amazingly competent dietician who cooks each recipe in this book 5-6 times herself.The Connors devised a method by which you may determine, by means of a single number, to what extent a particular food is good or bad for your arteries (foods ranging from fruits to Big Macs) - it is called the CSI or Cholesterol Saturated Fatty Acid Index.You use the book as a reference or as a cookbook: pages of foods are listed by category, with their CSI, and number of grams of fat; the recipes are well-written and tasty. The index is complete and easy to access. I use this book constantly for the education of my patients with hyperlipidemia.

Click Here to see more reviews about: The New American Diet System

In their breakthrough book, The New American Diet, the Connors developed a low-fat, low-cholesterol diet that dramatically reduces the risk of heart disease, cancer, stroke, and high blood pressure. Now, the overwhelming amount of products and information about cholesterol can be confusing.The New American Diet System takes us to the next step, providing a unique system that simplifies food choices for people with high cholesterol. Since both saturated fat and cholesterol in foods increase cholesterol in the blood, the Connors developed the CSI -- the Cholesterol-Saturated Fat Index -- the only complete measure of the true heart-healthiness of foods.This indispensable reference: -- makes food choices as simple as choosing from 1 to 10 (the lower the CSI, the better)-- provides easy-to-read charts rating hundreds of foods -- including many brand-name products-- eliminates confusion about high-fat, low-cholesterol foods (such as tropical oils) and low-fat, high-cholesterol foods (like shellfish)-- offers more than 300 recipes for tasty, low-CSI versions of your favorite dishes as well as suggested menus-- helps you compute your own CSI so you can set new dietary goals.A straightforward, comprehensive resource for anyone with high cholesterol, or anyone concerned about dietary fat, The New American Diet System is an essential part of every cholesterol-conscious kitchen.

The Calcium Key: The Revolutionary Diet Discovery That Will Help You Lose Weight Faster Review

The Calcium Key: The Revolutionary Diet Discovery That Will Help You Lose Weight Faster
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
There are 24 reviews of "The Calcium Key" diet as I write this review. Sadly not one of them tells you about the diet, because if it did I would not have purchased the book.
"The Calcium Key" is a well researched (though the studies were sponsored by the dairy industry), well written book on how calcium when added to your diet can help you lose weight.
The authors obviously spent a lot of time writing the text which is very easy to understand and clarifys the calcium-weight loss connection.
Putting aside any self serving interests that perhaps the author benefited from the support of the dairy industry and the results were skewed, I decided to trust in the authors expertise and focus on the plan.
Sadly the plan is a labor intensive one that very few people will be willing and able to follow long term. It involves as the author puts it, writing down every thing you eat and using an exchange system.
The author lists calorie levels and how many exchanges you can eat for your level (similar to the old Weight Watcher progam).
For example if you are on 1200 calories (and the author teaches you how to determine your caloric level) you get 3 breads, 2 meats, 3 veggies, 3 fruits, 3 dairy and 3 fats.
3 graham cracker squares would equal 1 bread group. 1 cup milk would be a dairy. Sounds simple enough...but then you get into mixed foods like a butterfinger candy bar and you have 1 bread group, 2 fruit (dont ask) and 2 fats.
In order to keep it all straight you must keep a diary and write it all down.
Now that said, I think the author is on to something when he suggests adding dairy to your diet. The combination of protein and fat is much more satiating than say a slice of cake or a cookie.
But very few people want to micromanage their diets the way this book proposes.
So though it introduces the calcium weight loss connection, the actual diet is not one that many will succeed with. Just try adding calcium rich foods to your diet 3 times per day and don't increase calories.

Joy Bauer's Food Cures: Treat Common Health Concerns, Look Younger & Live Longer Review

Joy Bauer's Food Cures: Treat Common Health Concerns, Look Younger and Live Longer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
If you are just starting to think about food as a "drug" in terms of how different foods can affect your mood, health and overall well-being, then this book is for you. Joy Bauer provides a good, basic overview of certain key foods and how they can keep you healthy or, if you have a particular health problem, how various foods can either calm or exacerbate your condition.
The format of the book is useful in that it suggests specific foods to seek out and to avoid for different health situations. For example, there is a chapter that discusses arthritis and delineates which foods are likely to help you control inflammation. There is another chapter on moods, with information on which foods tend to promote depression and which tend to promote a general sense of well-being.
Because of this "disease-oriented" format, however, the book does at times seem repetitive, as the same food (spinach, for instance) is discussed in many different places throughout the book. Thus, Food Cures is not very useful if you just want to check out a single food or group of foods, since you will have to skip from page to page and will probably end up reading the same information in several different places. Another thing that I found irritating is the large size of this publication. It is awkward to hold and quite heavy, even though it's paper bound.
Nevertheless, Food Cures is a solid reference guide written in easily understandable language for the average reader. It is worth buying if you don't have a lot of other nutrition books in your personal library. If, on the other hand, you already own a few books by people like Andrew Weil or Barry Sears, then I recommend that you pass on this one.

Cooking for Two (Healthy Exchanges Cookbook) Review

Cooking for Two (Healthy Exchanges Cookbook)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I love cooking! But I don't like fast food, ready sauces, and dressings or canned food. Of course occasionally I use them but not in every dish. Cooking for Two should be a healthy cookbook but unfortunately its not. Almost every recipe contains `Kraft' sauces or salad dressings and half-and-half should be a common item in your refrigerator. Most of the recipes contained canned vegetable instead of fresh. I can't say that recipes are not good but be honest I haven't cooked one yet and I am cooking every day. If someone looking for a really healthy cook book, which inspires even your husband to look into your kitchen cupboard and experiment a dinner, go for this one: Weight Watchers Great Cooking Every Day. It's not a cooking for two but it is a way healthier and definitely more interesting.

Anyone can make tea for two-but cooking a balanced, interesting meal of two servings can be a challenge for newlyweds and empty-nesters alike.

Restaurant Calorie Counter For Dummies (For Dummies (Health and Fitness))
Average Reviews:

This book is an excellent compilation of nutritional information for food from almost every mainstream restaurant.
More than just calories, there is listing of fat, salt, etc.
The information can be used to infer the calorie count of dishes from restaurants that aren't listed. For example, you can look up a burger from Island's and use it to estimate the calorie count of similar burger at a local burger restaurant.
The book is small but thick and that makes it a bit heavy to take with you when you go out to eat. If you are meticulous about what you eat and want to plan ahead before you go to the restaurants, this is a great book to have in your collection.

You can look inside this journal, so you have an idea how the pages are set up.
Its 30 weeks long and its really nice being spiral binding, so you can lay flat on the kitchen counter (as I do).

On previous diets there was no weight loss. To all of those who are hypothyroid it's not us, it's how we eat! This is a lifestyle change. It has not been hard either.

I am very disappointed with this book. I wanted a book to help me keep track of my daily intake of calories. Not pages and pages full of the author's opinions and tips on weight loss. A lot of the items listed are commercial food that by law have to carry nutrition info anyway. I am prefectly capable of reading a nutrition lable for calories, I don't need the added step of finding it in this book, which doesn't have a very good order of listing items in my opinion. Instead I recommend "The Doctors Pocket Calorie, Fat & Carbohydrate Counter: 2002 Edition, Plus 101 Fast Food Chains and Restaurants" and "The Complete and Up-to-Date Fat Book: A Guide to the Fat, Calories and Fat Percentages in Your Food" - both of which are available from amazon.
