Brown and Company. January First paperback edition, January This book is nol intended as a substitute for medical advice from a physician. A physi- cian should be consulted if o n e is on medication or if there are any symptoms that may require diagnosis or medical attention. And the fu- ture is not bright. Almost a third of our young children are obese, and many do not exercise. No matter h o w much information be- comes available about the dangers of a sedentary lifestyle and a diet heavily dependent on processed foods, we don't change our ways.
Ideally, Americans should be able to translate financial well-being into habits that lead to longer and better lives, untroubled by expen- sive a n d chronic medical illnesses. Yet, in the United States, as well as Western Europe, Russia, and many other affluent countries, the majority of adults are overweight and undernourished. While high- quality nutrition is readily available throughout the United States, the American public, rich and poor, is drawn to eating u n h e a l t h y food.
Indeed, the list of top calorie sources for Americans includes many items I do not consider "real" foods, including milk, cola, mar- garine, white bread, sugar, and pasteurized processed American cheese. Though smoking has received a lot of attention for the dangers it poses to public health, and cigarettes have been heavily lobbied against, obesity is a m o r e important predictor of chronic ailments and quality of life than any other public scourge.
In a recent survey of 9, Americans, 36 percent were overweight a n d 23 percent were obese, yet only 19 percent were daily smokers and 6 percent heavy drinkers. There is the pervasive role of advertising in Western society, the loss of family and social cohesiveness, the adoption of a sedentary lifestyle, and the lack of time to prepare fresh foods.
In , 18 percent of calories were eaten away from home; the figure is n o w 36 percent. In , Americans ate 6 billion fast- food meals. By , the figure was billion. Poor nutrition can also result in less productivity at work and school, hyperactivity among children and adolescents, and mood swings, all of which heighten feelings of stress, isolation, and inse- curity. With time, the ravages of obesity predispose the typical Ameri- can adult to depression, diabetes, a n d hypertension and increase the risks of death in all ages and in almost every ethnic and gender group.
The U. Surgeon General has reported that , deaths annually are caused by or related to obesity. The illnesses caused by obesity also lead to more lost workdays than any other single ailment and increase pharmaceuti- cal and hospital expenditures to palliate untreatable degenerative conditions.
Government policy has h a d limited power to stem the tide of obesity, yet our nation's leaders have supported formal reports call- ing for a national effort to raise awareness of the dangers of being overweight.
As a part of the Healthy People initiative, the fed- eral government has proposed several steps to reduce chronic dis- eases associated with diet and weight through the promotion of better health and nutritional habits. It has set dietary guidelines and has encouraged physical exercise, but these efforts have not m a n - aged to change the minds, or strengthen the hearts, of most Ameri- cans. It is clear to the public that a minor change in one's eating habits will hardly transform one's life so readily.
So the public turns to magic cures, pills, supplements, drinks, and diet plans that simply don't work or are unsafe. After a few failures, they give up hope. Unlike for m a n y diseases, the cure for obesity is k n o w n. Studies with thousands of participants have demonstrated that the combina- tion of a dramatic change in eating habits and daily exercise results in weight loss, including a 60 percent reduction in the chance of de- veloping chronic ailments, such as diabetes.
With the publication of Dr. Joel Fuhrman's book, outlining a perfectly rational, straightforward, and sustainable diet, I believe we are witnessing a medical breakthrough. If you give this diet your complete commit- ment, there is no question in my mind that it will work for you.
In creating this plan. Fuhrman, a world expert in nutrition a n d obesity research, has gone beyond the dietary guidelines set up by the National Institutes of Health and the American Heart Associ- ation. Importantly, Eat to Live takes these nationally endorsed stan- dards a q u a n t u m step further. Whereas conventional standards are designed for mass consumption and offer modest adjustments to o u r present eating habits, Dr. Fuhrman's recommendations are designed for those seeking breakthrough results.
I have referred my patients to Dr. F u h r m a n and have seen firsthand h o w his powerful methods excite and motivate people, and have witnessed wonderful results for both weight reduction and health restoration. I am a cardiovascular surgeon infatuated with the challenge and promise of "high-tech" medicine and surgery. Nonetheless, I have become convinced that the most overlooked tool in our medical ar- senal is harnessing the body's own ability to heal through nutritional excellence.
F u h r m a n is doctor as teacher; he makes applying nutritional science to o u r o w n lives easy to learn, compelling, practical, and fun. His own c o m m o n sense and his scientifically supported solutions to many diet-induced ailments will enable many readers to achieve u n - expected degrees of wellness quickly and easily.
He reminds us that not all fats or carbohydrates are good or bad and that animal proteins catalyze many detrimental side effects to our health. He pushes us to avoid processed foods and to seek the rich nutrients and phytochem- icals available in fresh foods.
Finally, he offers a meal plan that is tasty and easy to follow. However, m a k e no mistake, the information you will find in this book will challenge you; the scientific evidence he cites will make it harder for you to ignore the long-term impact of the typical American diet.
Indeed, it is a wake-up call for all of us to make significant changes in o u r lives. Now is the time to put this informa- tion into action to bring optimal health to all Americans. Go for it! Oz, M. I was be- coming sicker and sicker and then I heard Dr. Fuhrman speak. I've lost sixty pounds, going from a size plus to a size 8 and have remained at pounds for three years. Fuhrman saved my life. My three teenage sons and my daughter witnessed the results I've attained and they all have adopted his plan, receiving dramatic health improvements as well.
No more allergies and digestive problems. She said if anyone can help you, it's him. Well, she was right. After twenty-five years of taking insulin, I was off it completely in a few days. I was a great patient and did exactly as Dr. Fuhrman said, and it was well worth it. After losing sixty-five pounds, I have been medication-free for two years.
I owe it all to him. I'll see a n y w h e r e from t w o to five n e w patients like Rosalee. W h e n Rosa- lee first walked through my door, she weighed p o u n d s and was on t w o medications Glucophage and Glucotrol to control h e r dia- betes, as well as two m o r e Accupril and Maxide to control her high blood pressure.
She'd tried every diet on the market and exercised but still couldn't m a n a g e to lose the weight she w a n t e d to. I asked her what in her wildest dreams she thought her ideal weight would be and h o w long it would take her to attain that goal.
She thought that her ideal weight would be and that she would like to be there within a year. I smiled and told her that I could de- sign a diet for her to lose about five pounds the first m o n t h or twenty p o u n d s the first m o n t h and reduce her medications. Not surprisingly, she picked the latter. After hearing my explanation of the program I designed for her, Rosalee was psyched. With everything she had learned from reading about dieting, she had never realized how all the mixed messages had led her down the wrong path.
The plan I outlined for Rosalee made sense to her. She said, "If I can eat all that good-tasting food and still lose that much weight, I will definitely follow your instruc- tions precisely. Her blood pres- sure was normal and her glucose was under better control on less medication. It was n o w time to reduce her medication even further and move to the next phase of the diet.
Rosalee is typical of the thousands of patients I have seen in my practice, m e n and w o m e n w h o are no longer overweight and chron- ically ill. I get such a thrill from helping these patients regain optimal health and weight that I decided to write this book to place all the most important information for weight loss and health recovery in one clear document. I needed to do this. If you implement the in- formation in the pages that follow, you too will see potentially life- saving results.
I also see m a n y young w o m e n w h o want to drop twenty to fifty p o u n d s quickly in anticipation of an upcoming wedding or trip to the beach. This winter I saw a swimming coach w h o had to look great in her bathing suit come summer. These younger and healthier individ- uals were typically referred by their physicians or were informed enough to know that it can be dangerous to crash-diet.
My plan is not only a healthful, scientifically designed diet calculated to supply optimal nutrition while losing weight quickly, it also meets the ex- pectations of those desiring superb health and vitality while they find their ideal weight. To be considered obese, more than one-third of a person's body must be made up of fat. A whopping 34 percent of all Americans are obese, and the prob- lem is getting worse, not better.
Unfortunately, most weight-loss plans either don't work or offer only minor, usually temporary, benefits. There are plenty of "rules and counting" diets, diet drugs, high-protein programs, canned shakes, and other fads that might enable you to lose some weight for a period of time.
The problem is that you can't stay on these programs forever. What's worse, m a n y are dangerous. For example, the Atkins diet and other diets rich in animal products and low in fruits and unrefined carbohydrates is likely to significantly increase a person's risk of colon cancer. Scientific stud- ies show a clear and strong relationship between cancers of the di- gestive tract, bladder, and prostate with low fruit consumption.
What good is a diet that lowers your weight but also dramatically increases your chances of developing cancer? Because of such drawbacks, more and more desperate people are turning to drugs and surgical procedures for weight loss. I have cared for more than ten thousand patients, most of w h o m first came to my office unhappy, sick, and overweight, having tried every dietary craze without success. After following my health-and- weight-loss formula, they shed the weight they always dreamed of losing, and they kept it off.
For the first time in their lives, these patients had a diet plan that didn't require them to be hungry all the time. Most patients w h o come to me say that they just can't lose weight, no matter what they do. They are not alone. It is almost uni- versally accepted that obese patients cannot achieve an ideal weight or even an acceptable weight through traditional weight-loss pro- grams.
In one study of sixty overweight w o m e n w h o enrolled in a uni- versity diet-and-exercise program, n o n e achieved her ideal weight. My diet plan and recipes are designed for the hardest cases and those w h o have failed to lose the desired weight on other plans.
Fol- lowing the dietary advice offered in this book, you will achieve re- markable results, regardless of your experience elsewhere. Some people lose as much as a pound a day. There is no hunger, and you can eat as m u c h food as you desire usually more food than you were eating before. It will work for everyone.
My patients experience other benefits as well. Many of t h e m once suffered from chronic diseases that required multiple medica- tions. A substantial n u m b e r of my patients have been able to discon- tinue their medications as they recover from angina, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, asthma, fatigue, allergies, and arthritis to n a m e just a few. More than 90 percent of my diabetic patients w h o were on insulin at the time of their first visit got off all insulin within the first m o n t h.
When I first saw Richard Gross, he had already had angioplasty and bypass surgery, and his doctors were recommending a second bypass operation because his chest pain had recurred and catheteri- zation showed two out of the three bypassed vessels were severely blocked.
Because he had suffered brain damage from the first bypass, this m a n did not want to undergo another operation.
Needless to say, he was very motivated to try my noninvasive approach. He followed my recommendations to the letter, and within two months on the plan his chest pains disappeared. His blood pressure normalized, his total cholesterol came down without drugs to , a n d he no longer required the six medications he had been taking for angina and hypertension. Now, seven years later, he is still free of any signs of vascular insufficiency. I see n u m e r o u s patients whose physicians have advised t h e m to have angioplasty or bypass surgery but w h o have decided to try my aggressive nutritional m a n a g e m e n t first.
Those w h o follow the for- mula described in this book invariably find that their health im- proves and their chest pains gradually disappear. Of hundreds of cardiac patients treated in this manner, all but a few have done ex- ceptionally well, with chest pain resolving in almost every case only one went to repeat angioplasty because of a recurrence of chest symptoms , and I have had no patient die from cardiac arrest.
With the help of their doctors, most patients can slowly reduce — and eventually cease — their dependency on drugs. This program often enables my patients to avoid open-heart surgery and other invasive procedures. It often saves their lives. However many details I provide of my patients' success, you are right to be skeptical. Thousands of patients with successful outcomes does not necessarily translate into your individual success.
Actually, many were relatively healthy people w h o came to me for routine medical care. They found a hid- den benefit, and just decided to "eat to live" longer and healthier and lose the extra weight they did not need to carry, even if it was only ten to twenty pounds. W h e n faced with the information in this book, they simply changed. These results sound fantastic, and they are — but they are also true and predictable on my program.
Food sup- plies us with both nutrients and calories energy. All calories come from only three elements: carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. Nutri- ents are derived from noncaloric food factors — including vitamins, minerals, fibers, and phytochemicals. These noncaloric nutrients are vitally important for health. Your key to permanent weight loss is to eat predominantly those foods that have a high proportion of nutrients noncaloric food factors to calories carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.
Every food can be evaluated using this formula. Once you begin to learn which foods make the grade — by having a high proportion of nutrients to calories — you are on your w a y to lifelong weight control and improved health.
Eating large quantities of high-nutrient foods is the secret to op- timal health and permanent weight control.
In fact, eating much larger portions of food is one of the beauties of the Eat to Live diet. You eat more, which effectively blunts your appetite, and you lose weight — permanently. The Eat to Live diet does not require any deprivation. In fact, you do not have to give up any foods completely. However, as you con- sume larger and larger portions of health-supporting, high-nutrient foods, your appetite for low-nutrient foods decreases and you grad- ually lose your addiction to them.
You will be able to make a com- plete commitment to this diet for the rest of your life. By following my m e n u plans with great-tasting recipes, you will significantly increase the percentage of high-nutrient foods in your diet and your excess weight will start dropping quickly and dramati- cally. This will motivate you even more to stick with it. This approach requires no denial or hunger. Patients of mine, such as Joseph Miller, have lost sixty pounds in two m o n t h s while feeling full and content.
You can lose as much weight as you want even if diets have never worked for you in the past. This book will allow everyone w h o stays on the program to be- come slimmer, healthier, and younger looking. You will embark on an adventure that will transform your entire life. Not only will you lose weight, you will sleep better, feel better physically, have more energy, and feel better emotionally.
And you will lower your chances of developing serious diseases in the future. You will learn w h y diets haven't worked for you in the past and why so many popular weight- loss plans simply do not meet the scientific criteria for effectiveness and safety. My promise is threefold: substantial, healthy weight reduction in a short period of time; prevention or reversal of many chronic and life-threatening medical conditions; and a n e w understanding of food a n d health that will continue to pay dividends for the rest of your life.
All the Information That You Need to Succeed The main principle of this book is that for both optimal health and weight loss, you must consume a diet with a high nutrient-per-calorie ratio. Very few people, including physicians and dietitians, understand the con- cept of nutrient-per-calorie density.
Understanding this key concept and learning to apply it to what you eat is the main focus of the book— but you must read the entire book. There are no shortcuts. I have found that a comprehensive education in the subject is necessary for my patients to achieve the results they are looking f o r — b u t once they understand the concepts, they "own" them. They find it much easier to change. So make no mistake: the com- plete knowledge base of the book is essential if you want to achieve significant success, but I k n o w that after you read this book you will say, "This makes sense.
Eat to Live 9 Why should you wait until you are faced with a life-threatening health crisis to want health excellence? Most people would choose to disease-proof their body and look great now.
They just never thought they could do it so easily. Picture yourself in p h e n o m e n a l health and in excellent physical condition at your ideal body weight. Not only will your waist be free of fat but your heart will be free of plaque. Still, it is not easy to change: eating has emotional and social overtones. It is especially difficult to break an addiction.
Our Ameri- can diet style is addicting, as you will learn, but not as addictive as smoking cigarettes. Stopping smoking is very hard, but many still succeed. I have heard many excuses over the years, from smokers aiming to quit and sometimes even from failed dieters. Making any change is not easy. Obviously, most people k n o w if they change their diet enough and exercise, they can lose weight — but they still can't do it.
After reading this book, you will have a better understanding of w h y changing has been so extremely difficult in the past and h o w to make it happen more easily.
You will also find dramatic results avail- able to y o u that m a k e the change exciting and well worthwhile. However, you still must look deep within yourself and make a firm decision to do it.
I ask you for six weeks of your life to make my case. After the first six weeks, it becomes a lot easier. The first six weeks are defi- nitely the hardest.
You might already have strong reasons to make a commitment to the Eat to Live plan, or you would not be reading this. Even with patients determined to quit smoking, I insist that if they are faced with significant work-related stress, have an argu- ment, get in a car accident, or any other calamity, they should not go back to smoking and use smoking as a stress reliever.
I admonish them, "Call me, wake me in the middle of the night if you have to; I will help you, even prescribe medication if necessary, but just don't give yourself that option of self-medicating with cigarettes. You can break the addiction only if you give your body a fair chance. Do not say you will give it a try.
Do not try; instead, make a commitment to do it right. When you get married, does the religious figure or justice of the peace ask, "Do you swear to give this person a try? It takes more than a try to quit addictions; it takes a commit- ment. A commitment is a promise that you stick with, no matter what. Without that commitment, you are doomed to fail. Give yourself the chance to really succeed this time. If you commit to just six weeks on this program, you will change your life forever and turn- ing back becomes much more difficult.
Make a clear choice between success and failure. It takes only three simple steps. One, buy the book; two, read the book; three, make the commitment. The third step is the difficult choice, but that is all it is — another choice. Don't go there yet. First, read the entire book. Study this book; then it will become easier and logical to take the third step — making the commitment to follow the plan for at least six weeks. You must have the knowledge carefully and elaborately described in this book before that commitment is meaningful.
It is like getting married. Don't commit to marriage unless you know your partner. It is an educated choice, a choice made from both emotion and knowl- edge. The same is true here. Let me thank you for beginning the journey to wellness.
I take it personally. I sincerely appreciate all people w h o take an interest in improving themselves and taking better care of their health. I am committed to your success. I have no aspirations to change every person in America, or even a majority of people.
But at least people should be given a choice. This book gives everyone w h o reads it that choice. Surely he is an open enemy to you. Holy Quran 2: The diet known as Eat to Live was designed by Dr. Joel Fuhrman to help dieters and ailing individuals lose weight fast.
The diet is particularly significant to those who have health problems and must lose weight. The Fuhrman Diet is truly a quick and healthy way to lose weight, as he promises you to lose up to 20 pounds in just six weeks To live a long time, eat once every 24 hours or once every 48 hours, if you are able to do so.
But, if you have heavy, manual work to do, do not try to eat once every two or three days. And, if you eat once a day, you should fast every month for two or three days. By doing that, there will be no poison left in the body at the end of a year to. Specific plants and vegetables such s beans, berries, orange and yellow veggies, onions, tomatoes and salads are encouraged in Dr.

Your Rating:. For more than 30 years, messenger Elijah Muhammad has been teaching the so-called Negroes of America on the proper foods to eat to improve their mental power, physical appearance, for prevention of illness, curing of ailments and prolonging life.
Given the humble, economic conditions of the blacks in America, an inexpensive, yet highly nutritional diet was given to them by Elijah Muhammad. Before the health craze that has swept the country, Elijah Muhammad and the Nation of Islam were head of.
In these books Elijah Muhammad, Messenger of Allah, points out very clearly and decisively that it all is from Allah God in person. This volume explores the myriad ways in which African American religions have encountered Jewish traditions, beliefs, and spaces. In contrast to previous works, which have typically focused on the social and political relationship between blacks and Jews, Black Zion places religion at the center of its discussion, thereby illuminating a critically important but little explored aspect of black-Jewish relations in America.
The essays gathered here examine groups such as the Nation of Islam and the Hebrew Israelites, individuals such as. This multi-generational story begins before the transatlantic slave trade in West Africa and ends with a discussion of contemporary African American vegans.
Demonstrating that food has been both a tool of empowerment and a weapon of white supremacy, this study documents the symbolic power of food alongside an ongoing struggle for food access. This book is about the Ex- Chattel Slave of America not standing up as a man and as a people and re-gain their will and ability, to self-govern us.
