A comprehensive view of food-combining which, in my opinion, is the only sensible way to eat. Anyone who has adhered to Fit For Life for any length of time will be able to recount the amazing benefits. Just the simple fact of feeling energized after a meal and not sluggish. Just by incorporating the 'fresh fruit only before noon' rule you will find weight dropping off of you and increased energy. A must read!

I started eating the Fit For Life way after I had my first baby in 1985. I had that last 10 pounds that would not budge, despite eating well and nursing her for 8 months. I bought the book, enjoyed reading it, started the method and the pounds melted away.

This food is good - try the recipes! Try Marilyn Diamond's "American Vegetarian Cookbook" - those recipes are great!

I occasionally eat chicken, fish, and sometimes beef! Who can resist a hamburger just off the grill? Not me. Just skip the bun, eat them with veggies, save the carbs for another meal. Sometimes I cheat, but so what? Birthday parties happen, and I'm going to enjoy! :) If you eat this way 90% of the time, your health will be terrific.

I'm now in my mid 40's (that baby of mine is now 18) and my blood pressure and cholesterol numbers are low.

This method of eating has stood the test of time for me. I love the salad dressing recipes, almond milk and food combos as much as ever! Try the grapefruit juice salad dressing. Sounds wierd, tastes great!

This is by far the healthiest eating plan out there!

I read this book and I thought it was good. I did start off the fruit in the morning aspect of it which helped me a bit - it stopped all the sugar high-lows I used to have in the mornings but i found some parts of it harder to implement in my own life. I thought it would help me lose weight but it didn't - must be still missing something. Have to keep looking.

This is a great book and well worth reading. It is different to all the other 'diet' books as it shows a healthful way of living, such as, the importance of a light breakfast to ease our bodies back into food after the nightly fast... And it advocates fruit only before lunch, and lots of water. Explains the importance of different foods and vitamins. This is a must read for anyone getting into health

Any one out there that would like to live healthy and enjoy life then this book is a must it should be on the shelfs of all schools.
