The Maker's Diet

Summary: Off Makers back on Body for Life
Review: Probably a great book and advice if you have a critical illness or health problem that nothing else seems to help. Probably a great book if you want to grow your own fruit, vegatables, raise your own cows for milk, cows for beef, polutry and fish. But for those of us that just need to loose a few pounds by avoiding fast food and exercising more this is not for us. I am extremly intrigued by a biblical diet and agree that people of the old testament did not eat pork and shellfish for a reason, I also agree that pork, shellfish and fried foods contribute to a lot of our health problems today. I do however disagree with the notion you should not exercise to get better. I firmly believe that exercise weighs equal with proper nutrition on leading a healthy lifestyle. I will keep this book to reference certain foods with its biblical belif but still find Body for Life a much better program. Again, I do not question the validity of it for people with serious illnesses like cancer that need a radical change in diet. It is just not for the rest of us trying to lose a few pounds.
