Summary: If ignorance is bliss... what are the consequences?
Review: If you are going to title your book, God's diet, consult the source accurately so as to not misrepresent His Word. "And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat." (note- MEAT means FOOD, not FLESH) "And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so." Genesis 1:29-30. (note-all living creatures ate green herb). Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things. BUT flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye NOT eat. (Genesis 9:3,4) I don't think God can be clearer on what is His perfect diet as originally intended. Those who eat flesh would do well to read God's dietary laws of meats. Leviticus 11. (note- all pork is unhealthy but is included in McNemee's recipes.) Whenever I follow God's Diet, I lose the accumulated fat of past wrong eating and feel better too. The best way to be healthy is to to study and follow God's Word. (You won't even need recipes-save your money and put it where God wants you to put it).

Summary: The Ungarbled Word on Weight-Control
Review: In a clear, concise, and very readable way, Dr. Dorothy has presented a compelling argument for discarding the complexities and impracticalities of modern diet regimens in favor of a far simpler and more logical approach to weight-control. Instead of relying on a rigid program of counting calories and measuring meal portions from certain food groups in specific rotations and sequences, the Dr. has outlined a simple program based essentially on that practice which has been in use with only minor variations from ancient times up to WWII, during which time food has been obtained primarily by hunting, fishing, and gathering from fields, farms, and ranches. The only processing this food underwent was to manually prepare it for cooking. Dr. Dorothy admits that her program is not for everyone but for the very large majority, it works well with little or no alterations. Another big plus for this program is that the only tools one needs to implement it are firstly, a bit of caution; secondly, a lot of common sense; and lastly, within reasonable limits, a steadfast adherence to the guiding principle which is the motto of this booklet: " If God didn't make it__don't eat it!"

Summary: Review
Review: Interesting analysis, if you want to be healthier or have weight problems and are looking for a plausible solution. Alcohol, however, that we should not consume because God didn't make it, is in the bible where Jesus drinks wine. What about that? One glass of wine per day actually aids digestion and arguably clears the mind because of its value as a depressant to relieve stress.

Summary: When did God make Shredded wheat, diet jello, cheddar cheese
Review: One can argue...about God making "everything"..but I will let that slide. Since when did God make Cheese or diet jello? I understand the concept here...but IMO seems to be another gimmick...particularly when I read the sample menus and read "cheddar cheese and diet jello" makes me laugh.. salad of diet jell-o with raspberries; Nabisco Shredded Wheat cheddar cheese no offense...but "nabisco shredded wheat"...?? what is the difference between shredded wheat (okay) and pasta (not okay) silly book...

Summary: Bacon, cheese, jello? Was that in the Garden of Eden?
Review: Please give us all a break! If God had intended for us to eat such garbage, it would be growing on trees! Is this book for real or should it be listed under COMEDY? I say, plant a garden and start there. You will eat healthy food and get exercise in the process. What you don't grow, you won't eat! That was God's plan.

Review: Short, simple, basic and to the point. I feel so much better!!! I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in looking at food and eating without all the STUFF that packs the pounds on our frames. My blood pressure has drastically improved and will probably be taken off the blood pressure medication when I return for my next physical examination.

Summary: Don't Waste Your Money!
Review: The only thing I lost was my money! This book is much too simplified. You can read the title and you have read the book. I would suggest "Neanderthin" by Ray Audette. Better science and better writing.The author claims to be a Christian and she may be ,but the writing doesnt indicate it. For instance, she says that our ancestors only lived for 30 years or so. Anyone who has read the Bible knows that from Adam on down lifespans were in the hundreds of years. Only in fairly recent history have lifespans shortened(last several hundred years). Save your money.

Summary: Way to go, Dorothy!
Review: This book is NOT religious, something us heathens can enjoy. If it was, I'd never purchase it. A more appropriate title may be "Mother Nature's Diet" so not to offend any nutty christians. This book you can actually finish reading in a day or two; a much shorter time than all those other diet books. I heard about it on ivillage (now non-existant board) and thought it was just too easy a plan so I bought the book to find out more. It's much like the Atkins diet, but not as restrictive. Unfortunately, there are not a lot of recipes. I don't care to cook, so eating this way helps because I don't have to buy all that other "illegal" stuff. Also, I feel eating this way is not only healthier, it's cheaper!!! Think about all the foods that are on the inside of the grocery aisles and how much they cost versus the food on the outside of the aisles (fresh). Prepackaged foods are just so much more expensive and not healthy. The point is simple and people are just looking into it too much. Good luck with your new way of eating if you purchase this book and keep in mind that those nutty christians are missing the point.
