 Good info, BUT ............... November 18, 2008
At first I thought this book contained a great deal of helpful information, but it didn't take long to realize it was nothing but a verbose advertisement for his line of products. SHAME ON YOU, MR.RUBIN...
Im glad I did not pay for this book - a compilation of data from other sources July 4, 2008

Rubin seems to advocate a Kosher diet - there is nothing wrong with the cloven hoof in modern times - all animals raised for food today are "fed" feed - like corn or pellets - swine do not forage for food in farmer browns trash - nor are they fed trash, ( except of course - China where all factory farmed animal are fed trash and even human fecal matter). A better book is eat right for your type - this book promotes a kosher diet ( what would you expect from someone named Rubin and a publisher name siloam (IE old Jersulam)) & the latest trends in health ..nothing new here .. except it heavily hawks his outrageously priced products - his green drink "perfect food" says "tastes great" - are you kidding ? this stuff tastes like any barley grass green drink - horrid .. these books are being given away everywhere - I hope nobody has actually bought this book ..

I really enjoyed reading Jordan's book Perfect Weight. It is very informative and I learned a great many things about what you should and should not eat. I have been a fan of Jordan's since reading his book "Patient Heal Thyself". He is one of most positive and honest people that I know, and will always use his products
Book is a Rip-Off May 20, 2008

Given Mr. Rubin's civil judgement against him and Garden of Life a couple of years ago, this book's appearance is no surprise - particularly since it is a blatant advertisement for Garden of Life products. While I acknowledge that eating closer to the way nature made it is certainly better for my health, there are aspects of Mr. Rubin's plan in this book which ended up making me feel worse and I believe were detrimental to my health. I am speaking of the section on the 10-day cleanse he advocates 4 times per year. I decided to give this a try about one month ago. According to the testimonials in the book and by Mr. Rubin's own account, after three days I should have noticed an improvement in the way I feel. I followed his spring cleanse plan to the letter. I had weighed myself the day I started the cleanse because according to Mr. Rubin, this plan jumpstarts your weight loss and most people lose several pounds during the cleanse period. I made it through 4 days before realizing I could not continue because not only was I extremely weak and light-headed, my abdomen was tender to the touch and I hadn't had a bowel movement in all of the four days. Prior to starting this, I had no problems in this area. By the fourth day, I was so sick, I decided to stop. It has taken almost a full month in order to get my bowel functioning back to normal. My metabolism completely slowed down during this cleanse so that I lost not 1 pound - I was exactly the same weight as when I began. And the hunger pangs were elevated. The products he advocates for the cleanse did nothing for me except waste $20 and throw off my whole system. As for the rest of the products he advocates, check out the prices of the stuff - for two people to take the supplements he recommends for one month, it costs several hundred dollars. No one can afford this long term unless they are well to do. This is a rip off plain and simple. Mr. Rubin appears to be interested in making up the millions he lost in the judgement against him. Figure it out... if every person who gets this book tries even once the supplements he recommends, then Mr. Rubin and Garden of Life will have no problem making up the lost income and most likely will and have profited from it. Don't buy this book!

Purchase Sally Fallon's book Nourishing Traditions. Same principle and most of the recipes come from this book.
