Book has wrong title . . . Low calory diet by Laurence W. Evans (South Africa) 1 Stars
August 28, 2009
Considering that this book is titled "The Super Antioxidant Diet", I was surprised to find how little information there was on antioxidants. My wife likes its low calorie recipes. However, if you want to learn more on antioxidant foods, this is not the book. Part III, chapters 15 to 23, is not even about food. The rest of the book's title, "Nutrition Guide. A Health Plan for the body, mind and spirit" is what the book is about. To me it seems this book was written as a low calorie food health guide and then wrapped with the term "antioxidant" to increase sales. Most of the book is recipes. The word ORAC appears once and there is no comparative rating of any foods so as to define what is a "super antioxidant food". There is not even a list of super-antioxidant foods. None of the recipes has an antioxidant score, while you can find a table with the score for 5 recipes for a range of elements, vitamins, cholesterol, calories etc. In conclusion, this author should refund me, as this cover title is false advertising. I am disappointed in the content. This is lazy mass marketing at its worst!

Not what I was expecting by Wellness Enthusiast (Seattle, WA) 3 Stars
August 22, 2009
I'm pretty surprised no one else has mentioned how religious this book is. It's not necessarily a bad thing, but it's a pretty significant portion of the book. I thought I was buying a book based on nutrition research, but instead I got prayers and Bible verses mixed with inaccurate nutrition facts. For example, they state that any heating of oil is damaging in your body. This is only true if you heat the oil over its smoke point. There were several other statements made in the book that left me scratching my head. If they wanted to make this a religious-based nutrition book they should have at least let the reader know BEFORE they buy it. I was expecting something completely different than what I received. I think this book is best for Christians who are beginning to learn about nutrition.

VIBRANT cuisine is correct by Janna Beatty 5 Stars
June 30, 2009
Glowing supple skin is one of the first changes I observed (since I am trained skin care expert)from following Robin Jeeps eating guidlines and taking Dr. Couey's enzyme therapy. But the reduction in joint pain, in as little as 4 days I could only describe as miraculous. Personally, I love the science behind the information. It feels so great to get precise answers, based on my individual blood test results since there is so much confusing and contradictory information out there. Robin's simple tip about re-commiting to the program each week is a great tool for focus and therefore success.

Healthy & Awareness by Wanda Hoffman 4 Stars
March 17, 2009
I am so exited about this book which has so much information in it. It has helped me to look at our eating habits and the way we were taught to eat. This has opened my eyes to a much better way of nourishing my body. As the years pass on, I realize that age, good health and a strong body & mind are the most important to us all. I am thankful this information is available for us to learn. My goal is to incorporate as much healthy foods as I can each day.

Proof's in the Pudding by Loy H. Burgess (Waco, TX) 5 Stars

My 103 year old mother and I have been on Robin Jeep and Dr. Couey's Antioxident Diet for about 2 years now. Mother just does not seem to age on this nutrient dense diet. She can still stay at home alone and seems to enjoy life even at this advanced age. We highly reccommend Robin's book and new way of approaching life as well as eating. It takes some adjusting to but Robin gives such wonderful easy hints for transitioning that it is not a painful process. I am feeling better than I have in many years and seldom have that terrible craving for sweets that we have all had in the past. The nutrient dense smoothies take the edge off of "hunger". It is really neat to have a "New way of Life" when you thought your life was almost over! In summary all I can say is, "Try it, You will definitely like it".
