Critic reviews

"In a scientifically accurate and easy-to-understand manner, Jack Challem lays out the basic nutrition plan for good health and weight loss." (Loren Cordain, PhD, author of The Paleo Diet)

Important information!

I liked learning more about what causes inflammation & how to fight it with foods and supplements. I’ll definitely be buying his other books. Thoroughly enjoyed

Fabulous Content, Terrible Narration

The substance of this book is excellent and extremely valuable in addressing inflammation. Unfortunately, the narrator speaks with a slow and artificial cadence … awkwardly choppy and halting … and listening to his narration makes the listening experience unpleasant and strained.

the book was great 👍

I brought three of the books and. sent them to my children. I have listened to it three times and I get something neweach time.

Suggestions of what to buy for possible helpful solutions.

A lot of information about different diseases. The book keeps you interested with all the knowledge it contains and a lot this isn't so common.

Meh

Any additional comments?

While I did find some information in this book helpful, it came across as perhaps preachy... It felt like the author had an agenda that they were trying to get you to buy into. If they had just stuck with presenting information and saying, "Here's some methods that we have found that can improve your lifestyle. I hope we have helped you live a better life!" I would have enjoyed it more. Instead it came across more as "Here's some information. These studies prove if you do this you live a healthier life. The reason why you don't live a healthier life is due to this modern business practice, and we are doomed if we don't stop them." I want to live a healthier life. I want everyone to live a healthier life, but I feel like there was a little bit of a blame game in this book. And I feel like the intention of anyone who is buying this book is looking at ways to improve not necessarily finding out who to blame.. just my two cents.. Buy it for the info, but maybe be prepared to do some skipping later in the book..
