Summary: This book is a tremendous resource!
Review: As the mom of a toddler, wife of a competitive athlete, daughter of octogenarian parents, and owner of a small business, I feel like a lot of people depend on me. And the only way I can be that dependable person is to be vigilant about my own health. This book has become an invaluable partner in my ongoing quest for more energy, vitality and a better quality of life. Information is presented in a straightforward, easy-to-grasp format and Dr. Lipman doesn't preach or nag. He gives you the tools the improve your health ... you can pick and choose what makes sense to you and take it from there. By the way, one of the best features of the book is the "resources" listing at the back. Twelve pages of websites list everything from green products to children's health to nutrition. These resources help me make better choices.

Summary: AMAZING!
Review: Dr. Frank Lipman's book is incredible -- truly the healthiest perscription for diet, exercise, and life. Since the dawn of the new diet and exercise craze, I've been wondering what supplements to take and how to take them, what a proper diet really is (hint: it's painfully restricting like the Zone or Atkins), and what an appropriate exercise regime is not just for my body, but also for my very stressful lifestyle. Now I know. He also provided me with the first healthy and safe "cleanse" for detoxification. This book is revealatory and life-changing.

Summary: A PLEASURE AND EASY TO READ BOOK!!!!
Review: Easy to follow steps in how to change your life style for better health. Very realistic as is not easy to change habits, but a lot of information to guide you into the road of wellness. I can't wait for the next book. Well done!

Summary: With this book you can truly improve your health
Review: Frank Lipman's approach to health seems revolutionary. He's not presenting a doctrine; he's not saying you must do this or that or else; he's not promising an unrealistic cure-all. He's showing you how you can take charge of your own health and change it, permanently, for the better. His approach is a perfectly balanced combination of western and eastern training, of common sense and non-traditional thinking, of information and suggestion. And the book is wonderfully readable--personal, anecdotal, straightforward, and friendly in the best sense. Lipman isn't setting himself up as a guru, but once you feel the effects of his ideas and methods, as I have, you might think of him that way. Do yourself a great favor and find out what he has to offer. You won't be sorry.

Summary: This book is a tremendous resource!
Review: I must confess that I bought Total Renewal because of the jacket quotes from Dr. Lipman's celebrity clients -- Donna Karan, David Letterman and Kevin Bacon. But then I began reading and following his seven steps. It hasn't been long, but I have found his advice to be incredibly practical and effective. It's helped my daughter's allergies and his chapters on diet have given me the soundest, sanest advice for how to eat that I've ever read.

Summary: Too simple and not simple enough
Review: I was very disappointed in this book. Unless you are willing to do all of your shopping at health food stores and completely change your life style you can't possibly gain anything from any of the suggestions in the book. I did not find it inspiring. It just seemed like a lot of demands that are especially impossible for someone in a small town to meet.

Summary: Life-Changing
Review: Living a life that produces stress, I was eating poorly and feeling worse. I didn't want to depend on medicine to falsely improve my state. This book empowered me to create my own health. It worked!
