WHAT THE EXPERTS SAY ABOUT 
               DR. JOEL FUHRMAN'S 
         EAT TO LIVE 
           The Revolutionary Formula for Fast 
             and Sustained Weight Loss 
     "Finally, a diet book that looks at the science of eating in an accurate 
     fashion. Most diet books have little basis in proven physiology. Dr. 
     Fuhrman's book, Eat to Live, deals with why we gain weight, how to 
     lose weight, and how to stay thin and healthy for life, and he backs 
     it up with real scientific data. All controversy ends after you read this 
     book. It will be the final word in diet books and the one I recom-
     mend to my patients." 
                     — Thomas Davenport, M.D., 
                      Massachusetts General Hospital 
     "Dr. Fuhrman's Eat to Live presents a compelling, scientific, practical ap-
     proach to weight loss, health, and vitality that is a refreshing alternative 
     to the plethora of popular but largely ineffective diets and weight-loss 
     methods. For those who want to make dietary changes that will enable 
     them to enjoy optimum health and appearance, this book is a must." 
               — James Craner, M.D., M.P.H., 
                 Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 
                 University of Nevada School of Medicine 
     "Eat to Live is a comprehensive, valuable, scientifically focused contri-
     bution empowering nutrition knowledge and a healthier life." 
                    — Caldwell B. Esselstyn Jr., M.D., 
                     Preventive Cardiology Consultant, 
                     Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, Ohio 
    "Dr. Fuhrman's new book gives us the nutritional road map to opti-
    mal health. His information is painstakingly researched and sup-
    ported, yet he presents the results with an easy-to-follow style. He 
    honestly states the facts and educates us to make the food choices that 
    will help us overcome disease and regain health. This book marks the 
    beginning of a genuine, scientifically based health revolution." 
          — Mark Epstein, President, National Health Association 
    "Dr. Fuhrman's book is a world of nutritional wisdom. He has illus-
    trated a comprehensive familiarity with the world's scientific litera-
    ture, weaving in his extensive clinical experience and insight that is 
    a must read for every physician in America. Dr. Fuhrman offers a 
    new, more effective approach to the treatment of various diseases 
    and safe and effective methods of prevention. I recommend every-
    one remember his health equation and follow it for life." 
           — Alexander Fine, M.D., Champlost Family Practice, 
            Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 
    "This is the book about achieving optimal health and weight that the 
    scientific community has been waiting for, the 'gold standard' via 
    which all other diets can be judged. Dr. Fuhrman takes the latest sci-
    entific information from thousands of research studies and puts to-
    gether the most effective and healthiest dietary approach possible. 
    Everything else is just second-rate." 
             — Jeffery Gilbert, M.D., Medical Director, 
               Montefiore Medical Center, Bronx, New York 
    "An awesome piece of work that fills the gap between the ivory 
    tower-based nutrition research, which is difficult for the average per-
    son to interpret, and the unsubstantiated claims of New Age propo-
    nents of nutrition. For me this is a book that dropped out of heaven." 
     — Groesbeck P. Parham, M.D., Avon Scholar for Cancer Control, 
       University of Alabama Comprehensive Cancer Center 
     "Eat to Live is a landmark publication, a gimmick-free guide to the 
     food and exercise requirements for a robust life. . . . Fuhrman deftly 
     exposes the high protein and 'blood type' diets currently popular 
     and includes case studies of the gratifying responses of his own pa-
     tients to his simple food and exercise recommendations." 
         — William Harris, M.D., Hawaii Permanente Medical Group 
     "To write a great and informative book on the cutting edge of health 
     care, one that can really help people, it would take a pioneer doc-
     tor. Such is the nature of Eat to Live, whose author, Dr. Fuhrman, 
     is a hundred years ahead of his time. Fortunate is the reader who 
     happens to come across this book. He or she walks under a lucky 
     star!" 
             — Roy A. Alterwein, M.D.. Fort Lauderdale, Florida 
     "Simply a great piece of work. Dr. Fuhrman has painstakingly taken 
     the time to wade through the ever-burgeoning mountain of evi-
     dence which proves that the American diet and many physician-
     supported fad diets are not only unhealthy but are a contributing if 
     not direct cause of our enormous public cardiovascular and cancer 
     problem. His references are excellent and exhaustive. As individuals 
     and as a nation we cannot ignore this book." 
           — Robert J. Warren, M.D., Fellow, 
            American College of Surgery and Orthopedic Surgery 
     "If you want or need to lose weight, this book will be of enormous 
     practical value to you, showing you exactly what to do to become 
     trim and healthy for the rest of your life. There are a lot of weight-
     loss books out there that aren't worth the paper they're printed 
     on. This is the rare and priceless exception. It's a jewel. Get it. You'll 
     be very glad you did." 
                — John Robbins, author of The Food Revolution 
                 and Diet for a New America
