"Very informative. Everyone should take a look at this book and read parts. The majority of the population fails to understand the basics about this important food group. Udo Erasmus explains things in easy to understand, every day language while explaining necessary terms like what omega in (omega 3s 6s etc.) mean. So no excuses people; learn your fats. Better living through education."

"I actually had 20 pages left in this book, but I had to take it back to the library and then I moved. I'm bummed. I really loved this book. It took a LONG time to get through and there was a lot of chemistry that I wish I would have just skimmed instead of trying too hard to understand it. But, I learned a lot about diet and human health. The principles haved definitely helped me make some changes that have been very welcome. I have noticed big differences in mine and my family's health. So, in summary, it may be hard to get through, and introduces some pretty bold ideas that depart from what we've always believed about nutrition, but it is worth a read!"
