Miracle cure stories abound when it comes to natural healing. A super nutrient reverses cancer after chemotherapy has failed. A Chinese herb lowers high blood pressure in a patient with heart disease after being dismissed as quackery by doctors. Jordan S. Rubins account of returning from the medical abyss, however, includes an original twist. After several years of battling Crohns Disease, which included a small fortune spent on both conventional and alternative treatments, as well as trips abroad in search of help, Rubin weighed only 111 pounds and, at just age 21, thought his life was over. At the urging of his father, a naturopath, he contacted an obscure nutritionist in California promoting a diet based on the teachings of the Bible. Yes, were talking what Jesus ate: kefir, lamb, sprouted breads, eggs and meat from free-range chickens, and plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. Rubin also started to pray and added a new powder supplement containing homeostatic soil organisms (HSOs) to his diet. Four months later he weighed 170 lbs and was on the road back to his former athletic and healthy self. Inspired by his experience, and now with advanced degrees in nutrition and naturopathic medicine, Rubin has crafted The Makers Diet. While the faithful will surely find the book of interest, Rubins command of the scientific issues underpinning his recommendations may also appeal to those more accustomed to studying food labels in search of what to eat than ancient religious texts.

I gave this book it's rating not for it's quality writing, but the information actually given. While the first portion is devoted to follwoing the story of Rubin's journey from illness to health, the latter part of the book breaks down the concept of eating whole foods in a wonderful way.
Of every diet-health type book that I own, this author is my favorite. His books have helped me alot and because of some of his teachings and supplements, I am healthier than I have been in a few years. I share these books with people alot and have my mom hooked on some of his supplements as well. He is an actual natural doctor and I LOVE all of his books. I am even on the waiting list for his newest book. I would recommend this authors books above all other diet-health books. I combine this with some of the ideas in The Zone book and have achieved some great results.
