Book for the younger generation

I bought this book by hazard a couple years ago, but never got around to reading it, until now. I just offered a copy to my college-bound 17-yr old so that she may begin a lifetime of good eating ethics, or at least be aware of the consequences of not doing so.Not being born in America, I know a good deal about eating the right foods, but this book has put it very concisely into perspective. I especially appreciate the scientific approach that Dr. Lark has offered us.

Empowering book

Dr.Lark has produced a wonderful book here. I bought a copy for myself and sent one to my family. The concept of acid-alkali balance is of the utmost importance in recovering from any illness and sadly most Americans do not know this yet. You can take all the medicine or supplements you want or see your doctor every day, but you will not get well until you change your diet to an alkali-forming diet and make some life style changes that will improve your body's pH. Dr. Lark is most generous in taking the time to impart all this wealth of information to the reader to heal. The catch is the reader needs to take the initiative to make these life style changes. Since I am very holistic in my approcach to health I do not agree with taking some of the more chemically-oriented alkali-forming supplements listed in the book and prefer to alkalize with diet and green drink supplements instead. If you want to start on the road to good health read this book!

Excellent

This is a must have book for anyone who has ever experienced "brain fog", fatigue, or simply feeling unwell, and been baffled as to why. This book finally puts together the hows and whys of eating certain foods and the consequences inflicted on our bodies. It is eyeopening, refreshing, solidly grounded nutritionally, and a wonderful book. This is one you will refer to again and again and everyone needs to have this in their library. Couple this with Prescription for Nutritional Healing and hopefully we will all live until we are 90!

excellent, thorough presentation of the basics

I'm only in the first section, on acid/alkaline balance, but I can assure you that this book is about more than suppliments and papayas. The treatment of the effects of an acid-forming diet and lifesyle is spot on. The Larks are also current with their information on "good fats" and the critical fatty acids. My only complaint- that this was perhaps too much information for one volume- is being answered by the workbook now being published. A must read, especially if you have chronic health issues.

Top Notch like all her books

Susan Lark has produced another winner. All of her books are excellent. She is knowledgeable, experienced and has researched all the issues extensively. A must for every woman.
