Big Book of Culinary Medicine Review
Very informative book, but I wish there were more recipes and more medical conditions with correlating recipes. It is called a "Big Book" after all. I really like how it uses food to cure ailments, as a society are so stuck on popping pills when things go wrong and really, what we put in our bodies everyday makes a huge difference.

Great book. Thank you Dr La Puma!
Since I bought the book back in the early part of Sept, I quit drinking hard liquor, eating junk food and I have started a exercise program and I have lost 9 lbs since Sep 21. Today is Oct 15. I have learned to love fruits and vegetables. I love the whole living well concept and I'm so delighted that it's NOT a diet. I look forward to living this lifestyle the rest of my life.
This book is very easy to read, it's entertaining and extremely educational. I highly recommend this book to anyone that wants to save their life.

Not a Recipe Book
I misunderstood what this book was when I purchased it. I thought it was a recipe book with lots of healthy recipes for different concerns. This book is more about a way of eating. If that's what you're interested in, then I think it's a good book.
funny and informative
This book has completely changed how I choose food--and I thought I already knew a lot about healthy eating. Now I know how to maximize nutrition even in the foods I already eat (like melon and broccoli) by how I cook and store them. I have seen a real difference in my nails and hair, and my eye doctor recently told me, after examining my eyes, "Whatever you're doing, keep doing it."
I love watching La Puma on his ChefMD.com website--he's funny and gives great advice. And his book is funny and well written. Highly recommended.
