Summary

During his 28 years as a holistic practitioner and health expert on syndicated TV and radio, Dr. David Friedman has interviewed hundreds of world-renowned doctors and best-selling authors. From proponents of a vegan, paleo, mediterranean diet to a gluten-free and low-carb diet, the opinions are as different as night and day.

After becoming frustrated with all the conflicting research and opinions, Dr. Friedman wrote Food Sanity, which explores all the fads, facts, and fiction. Using a common science meets commonsense approach, this groundbreaking book finally answers the big question: What the heck are we supposed to eat?

Listeners will discover never-before-heard nutritional and dieting advice that will ensure they get the maximum benefits from their food and dietary supplements. Food Sanity offers a definitive blueprint on how to eat in the unhealthiest developed country in the world ... the good ole' USA.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

I book by a vegan pretending to be diet expert

At the point he said , cave men were vegetarian, I knew this book was not for me , but I kept listening and he said ketones were toxic, milk was poison. I had to switch the book of so I will never know the end .

Sadly, this book is fad and fiction

Author makes some bold claims about nutrition and assists himself with some scientific work which on several occasions have been retracted. This book needs solid scientific review and I'm guessing would never pass. I got really suspicious when author claimed pasteurization of milk prevents calcium absorption. Curious started to search for any research which would prove such thesis - found numerous papers which claim otherwise, none of the reputable sources appears to confirm authors claims. Very disappointed in this publication.

Obviously a Vegan

I’ve read a lot of books on diets and this guy as most has accumulated the information that best suits his beliefs in nutrition. I found it got very annoying after a few chapters.
Everything is bad for you unless is fruit and vegetables. He would have you move to remote location and live of the land in your straw huts.

Difficult to hear the truth

This book is hard to listen as we don’t want to let go of what we have always done. I am a pescatarian but even I had to start thinking need to make some changes.
I have recommended it to everyone.

One of the best book you can get on diet

Much recommended

As good as Prof Tim Spector’s books but his spoon fed book and this food sanity are two must read books for anyone !
