Thank you Dr. Sears for all the lipid research that you have done in the past 30 years. In December 2007 the week between Christmas and New Year's, I woke up one morning and couldn't get myself out of bed. I ached all over and couldn't move my body, it was something that I had never experienced. In Feb. of 2008, I went to a rheumatologist and he confirmed my worst fears. I had osteo-arthritis and polymyalgia rheumatica. The doctor wanted to immediately put me on prednisone. I said that I would wait and see how the Celebrex would work. A few months later, I caved in and said yes, because I was in so much pain. I am now going to so many doctors, my days off are filled with appointments. In his book Dr. Sears gives us pain sufferers information that the medical community is not aware of. That food can make a difference in this type of disease, as well as others. I am a 14 year breast cancer survivor and just went through 3 gruesome months of tests etc., all came out negative. After reading "The Anti-Inflammation Zone, I was so excited to start the program. I am very overweight and this Zone Diet is very easy to follow. I have everything to gain by following this Zone diet. Diet is a greek word that means "Way of Life". I truly understand that this is a new beginning for me. On my next appointment to my rheumatologist, I will bring in the book and tell him that I have already lost weight and I feel better already after only 10 days. I know that if I weigh less, I will not have as much pain because I will have less fat to carry. I also do swimming 3 to 4x a week. This helps allot with my mobility, I also see a acupuncture once a week and meditate every day for at least 20 minutes. I have taken a 10 week pain management course and that has helped. Dr. Sears focuses on 1 main ingredient in the Zone diet and that is fish oil, Omega 3. I have been taking these for quite a few years from another company but have switched to Dr. Sears formula in the liquid form. I want the best refined Omega 3 fish oil that is out there. I am know reading "Toxic Fat", also by Dr. Sears.Toxic Fat: When Good Fat Turns Bad I will do a review when I am done.

Much of what Dr. Sears writes in this book I have already been doing. But I exercise more than he suggests, I have been eating some foods on his "Unfavorable Carbohydrates" list and, I have not been taking as large a dose of fish oil as he recommends. But, I am seventy years old, have brought my weight down from 180 to 145 pounds, my blood pressure down from 150/90 to 118/64, and the results from my most recent blood test show cholesterol at 140 w/HDL at 51. Triglycerides were very low, and l tested perfect in all other parameters. Best of all, I feel thirty - not seventy. That is except for the pain in my neck. At sixteen I was a passenger in an automobile which hit another head on. The car rolled over three times and I was thrown clear but broke my neck. It has been a painful distraction, growing in intensity as I age, every since. So, guess what? Yes I increased my dose of fish oil to levels Dr. Sears recommends (6 or 7 grams) and most of the pain is already gone after only a few days. And I think the extra fish oil may have been responsible for the few extra points of lowered blood pressure and slight improvement of cognition. Because both of my parents suffered from Alzheimer's, I plan to look more carefully at Dr. Sears' dietary recommendations. He certainly is supported by a lot of research - as listed in this book and as backed up by even newer research studies.

It's depressing. The majority of trade-book authors treat their audience with considerable disrespect. We do have brains; we do not need to have an idea repeated a dozen times. Repetition is annoying in several ways. It wastes time, certainly, but it wastes even more time than the simple repetition. I expect a new sentence to tell me something new; when it doesn't seem to I begin by assuming I missed something subtle, so I go back and read both sentences again.... only to find out I gave the author too much credit and he gave me too little. Agggghhh! In other words you can skim this book in an hour. Just read the topic sentence of each paragraph. That said, as someone who studies fatty acids and fat metabolism professionally, I feel comfortable saying that Sears is right: the Omega-6/Omega-3 imbalance in our diets is inflicting serious damage on both our bodies and our minds. If we can sue R.J.Reynolds for cigarettes we should be suing ADM and Cargill for corn.

awesome book! by Joseph A. Whiting (Naugatuck,CT)

this is a GREAT book. i use it with all my clients(i'm a sports nutritionist). only days after using the diet and supplements that this diet explains, i started (and still do) feeling better than i ever have, in every way that i can think of. i'm turning 35 & after about 3 weeks of following this book i am down to about the same weight i was 12-15 years ago. I also have read & am using Toxic Fat by Barry Sears.
