Summary: Does more harm than good for some of us
Comment: I am already on a lean protein and vegetable diet. I was given this book, and started to read it. I stopped reading it and put it in the yard sale pile when I got to page 18, where Dr Bernard stated emphatically, "carbohydrates boost your metabolism."
I am one of those people that carbohydrates have the opposite effect on me, especially those found in grains, pastas and rice. Instead of boosting my metabolism, these carbohydrates bring it to a standstill. When I eat carbs, I feel bloated and lethargic, NOT energetic. If I were to do as he suggests and eat loads of pasta, rice, baked potatoes, etc., I'd end up weighing twice what I do now.
Be warned that a high carb diet may work for some - even most people - but for those of you who DON'T feel like running a marathon after eating a plate load of pasta, avoid this book at all costs and grab a copy of The South Beach Diet instead.

Summary: Excellent Amazon service, but poor book
Comment: The book is something interesting, but with no novelty at all. Some old ideas are presented, and there is no data assuring what the author suggests.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Not true. Results are subject to your body type
Comment: I was excercising and following a protein based + minumum carbs diet. My goal was to reduce fat and cholesterol. I read this book and decided to give it a try.
1.- If you are planning to become a vegan this may work for you.
2.- Even though carbos have no fat, your body converts carbs into sugar for energy and sugar becomes fat.
I gain back 2 pounds in a week! Not only that but I grew back 2.5 inches of belly!!
Carbos have been always a problem for me. They surely store in my belly. I was excercising at the time I tried this diet. I was at the gym 3 times a week for at least one hour.
This messed up my fitness program big time. I had to started all over again.
I know some people that had become skinny with this program but MAKE SURE YOUR BODY TYPE will respond to this program before you start. You may be dissapointed. Check with your doctor.

Summary: Out of 212 diets - this one worked.
Comment: This is the only diet that has worked for me. I have sent this book to a number of my friends, I weighed 365 when I got the book. I have lost 76 pounds. I lose one pound per week. I am at 289 and shooting for 225. I was morbidly obese. I learned a lot. I scorned spuds - now I eat them every day. I thought fish was a diet food. I no longer eat avocadoes or peanuts. A Mickey D double cheezeburger costs me 2 pounds each. It puts on a pound and I dont't lose a pound that week. Same with BK's Whopper JR. I used to buy a double cheeze burger on the way to food shopping -- so I wouldn't be hungery while shopping. I don't do that any more. I am now in the habit of driving straight home after a trip to town and not stopping in for a burger on the way home -- like I used to. I tried all the other diets--and none of them worked. When I go to an all you can eat buffett, I fill up with fruits and vegetables. I am just as full as I used to be eating the non VEGAN food. The first few months on the diet, the VEGAN food would not sustain me for more than about three hours. Now that I have been a VEGAN for some time, the VEGAN diet sustains me as long as the meat diet used to. I went to my friends Bar
Customer Rating:
Summary: A lot of common sense
Comment: Didn't really learn anything from this or any of the other 50 diet books that I have bought over the years.
