Read it then do it!

Reviewed in Australia on 18 May 2014

It provides easy to understand reasons about why a paleo lifestyle will improve your health. Then it provides a clear outline of what to eat for 30 days to eliminate toxic foods and to figure out what foods you have an intolerance to.

I followed the program and beat my sugar addiction, increased my energy levels throughout the day, lost weight, improved my skin condition and stopped taking hay-fever medication.

Now three months later I've introduced some foods (cheese, paleo breads and desserts) back in but still mainly stick to the program and I don't think I could every go back to eating the way I did before. A life changing book!

Reviewed in Australia on 21 June 2014

Really interesting and great read! Think it was slightly outdated in comparison to the information on the website but on the upside goes into way more detail about why certain foods are/aren't okay and puts in perspective the philosophy behind the program. Even going into depth about our bodies digestion etc. Great read. As for the program I'm 6 days in and cant stop eating fruit!!! People if your looking to buy the book you better not just see it as a detox guide. You need to be prepared to follow not just the "rules" but also mentalities toward food. (E.g. NO DESSERT!None!) This programs way more like a way to recognise your bad eating habits and sugar dependencies and kick them! Hope you enjoy.

Amazon's e-reader is such a let down

Reviewed in Australia on 21 March 2015

The book itself is fantastic! But the e-book from Amazon, using their e-reader has whole sections blacked out. Not happy. Should have bought the hard copy.

I have nothing but good things to say about this book, it helped me grasp some of the issues I had with food and diet, and ultimately helped me lose 3 stone in weight. It was easy to read and apply what the author was sharing and I find it a go to source every week. I have bought copies for family and friends who have all had very positive results using it.

A very valuable book

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 May 2019

Verified Purchase

I bought this after doing the Whole30 (primarily to deal with inflammation of hips and shoulders) because I wanted to know more of the science behind the program. It is written in a complete, yet easy to read style and I’ve recommended it to others who are interested in learning a lot more about nutrition based on good science and research. Highly recommend.

Even if you don’t believe in evolution????????

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 December 2020

Verified Purchase

This is a great book. BUT I almost threw it away when they stated “even if you don’t believe in Darwinian evolution you can still participate”. Why would an otherwise sensible science-backed book pander to craziness? Let people have daft ideas and superstitions if they want to, but please don’t legitimise it in a book about science and health.

Excellent Book

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 March 2017

Verified Purchase

I love this book. It explains very clearly why some foods are problematic to the body and mind, and why they are best avoided. Some preparations are needed to get the best from this advice, such as clearing out food cupboards and stocking up with good natural whole foods. A very worthwhile purchase which I recommend to anyone who cares about their health. Thank you Dallas and Melissa.
