"pretty basic stuff...eat food full of water and you will fill fuller. Eat lots of veggies and fruit. I'd have to say I didn't learn anything new but it isn't some sort of crazy fad diet either."
"Great overview of why some foods do a better job than others to satisfy hunger. Has some techniques for weight loss that are healthier options than others I've seen. Lots of research and scientific evidence. Writing style seems a little too elementary at times (they repeat the same thing over and over)."
"In my ongoing quest to learn more about health, nutrition and fitness, I picked up this book. Nothing earth-shattering was found by reading and the title is a bit deceiving. One would think that this book would show you how you can eat large portions and still loose weight. It did not. I emphasized the traditional - portion control, load up on veggies and a little fruit, stay away from processed foods, and exercise. Deja vu...hello, Weight Watchers?
The one interesting tid bit in this book that I have not found in any of the other healh reading I do, is that they discuss findings from food studies..actual studies where they test people's eating patterns (portion sizes, how they determine hunger levels)
Another intesting feature is that an entire chapter was spent discussing how eating soup is good for your body in three very major ways -hydration, hunger satisfaction, and overall nutrition. We are talking broth-based soup her people. I completely agree with this as I eat soup practically everyday.
If you are looking to increase your knowledge of health and nutritiion, this book is not a necessity to read. Pick up something by Bob Greene or any of Dr. Oz's YOU books."
