(Note: I changed stars due to Amazon's star system. For stars on Amazon means "I liked it") My review from Goodreads is below:
First of all let me explain what three stars means to me (and Goodreads): "I liked the book." Four stars would have been "really liked," and five stars would have been "it's amazing." I'm not a huge fan of the star system because what three stars means to me is entirely different than what it means to someone else. Often I have just given five stars because I hate giving anything less. So let me explain why I chose to give three stars this time…
The Daniel Cure is a truly wonderful book about taking the Daniel Fast--which has done amazing things in people's physical and spiritual health--and making it a lifestyle with a few modifications. The Daniel Cure allows consumption of minimally processed animal products, some natural sweeteners, and coffee/tea. It also has a couple of built in "cheat" meals. Overall, I believe this is the BEST approach to gaining a healthily lifestyle I have ever read. And there is no doubt that the Daniel Cure is both doable and highly successful. So, again, why would I give a book I clearly think is very good three stars? Here we go:
I was a bit disappointed with the "Your Body Matters" chapter. It is wonderful for anyone who is struggling with being overweight, and it helped me a bit too. I guess I was just expecting that those who struggle with all sorts of body image issues and not just those who struggle with overeating would be included--and I didn't feel they were. Still, that was not my reason for three stars.
My real issue with the book was the blanket statement that an animal based diet is "better" for you than a plant based diet. Why?
