Helpful Score: 4

It appears a lot of research has gone into this book, and Jillian acts upon what she believes. I found useful tips to use in my own course to a healthier lifestyle, but if I tried to do everything she suggests, I would need to make this a full time job. She does state it is better to try one or two things first then move on. I think the item I took away from the book that will be the most helpful to me is trying to buy organic when possible. Her examples and explanations finally brought it home to me why this is such a key ingredient to trying to maintain weight, and feeling better physically. With a vegetable garden in the summer, we do maintain this type of eating during the season, but during the winter not so much. I had to skim over parts of the book as it became very scientific explaining the human body and its chemistry. Again though, there were helpful tips buried in those pages too. For me it was worth a complete read through, but is not a keeper for my library at this time.
