Summary: Feeling the difference after one week
Review: I have been fighting weight gain for 20 years. Finally here is a book that I know was written for me. Not only does it get to the heart of my carbohydrate cravings... it is specifically for people in my age bracket (40's, 50's & 60's). I had given up hope of ever being able to take the weight off, now I know that it is possible. If you are tired all the time, feel like you have no motivation, often feel like you are walking around in a fog, and can't pull off the weight no matter how little you eat... this book is for you! After one week, I have lost 5 pounds, I am clear headed, I am not needing a nap in the middle of the afternoon, and I am hunger and craving free!! I would continue this way of eating if I never lost another pound because of the other benefits I listed.

Summary: A book that offers freedom from food addiction
Review: The Hellers haven't written just another diet book. I can safely make that statement as I have read them all<G>. After reading the "The Carbohydrates Lifespan Program", I came away with a sense of relief, knowing that there was finally a program, no a lifestyle, meant for me, a carbohydrate addict. Their book was only the beginning, I found a whole support group through the internet to help keep me going. Might end up being the best investment I ever made...we'll see.

Summary: Brilliant - I shall eat this way for the rest of my life
Review: I can recommend all the Carbohydrate Addicts books to anyone who is looking for an answer to their weight problems. I have been on the Carbohydrate Addicts Lifespan Program for over a year and lost 56 lbs easily. As a carbohydrate addict I know I must stick with this "Way of Eating" for the rest of my life but I don't regard it as any problem. I can eat as much as I want, never go hungry, enjoy delicious meals and still lose weight. Plus I feel healthier and have more energy. Finding CALP and the Hellers has probably saved my life and I will be forever grateful to them for their research and their continuing honest, caring, supportive attitude to those of us who have embarked on this way of life.

Summary: This book is a lifesaver!
Review: I recommend this book highly to any carbohydrate addict who has trouble with being hungry and craving foods all the time. With the information you gain in this book, you can understand why you're always hungry and do something about it. The solution is simple, easy, and you don't have to endure hunger to make it work for you. I've not only lost weight--although that is tremendous enough--but my asthma is better, my cholesterol is lower, my digestion is better, I am more energetic, my mood is better. It has improved my life in a dozen ways. I can't recommend this book highly enough.

Summary: Well-researched book on how carbohydrates make some fat.
Review: The Hellers have done an outstanding job of research and documentation in the field of obesity and health. Their Carbohydrate Addict Program is soundly based on research from many highly thought-of and prestigious journals of medicine, obesity, and nutrition. This book is a further refinement of their first product, The Carbohydrate Addict's Diet. Despite what others have said, I have read this and all the other books from the Hellers. The book is well-written and more importantly, well documented as to medical research. The program presented in the book works and, I can tell from personal experience, will make thousands of over-weight people healthier than they could ever imagine. Following the program in the Carbohydrate Addicts Lifespan Program I have been able to lose a lot of weight, normalize my blood pressure and feel great. I highly reccomend reading this book if you have ever struggled with weight or food.

I think it may have saved my health. Thank you Dr.'s Heller!
