Inflammation is an important topic, and until recently, badly neglected by the medical community. Now there are too many books adding to the prattle by those who know too little. This one stands out as comprehensive and easily understandable. Jack Challem does better than I do in HONEST NUTRITION.

I really liked this book. I thought it was very informative and included great information on how to change your diet to obtain better health. It opened my eyes to some of the ways we are harming our bodies by the foods we eat. I had read some of the information before in a couple health newsletters I subscribe to, so I felt the book was right on. I highly recommend it.

This is quite simply a great book. I've read several books about relieving inflammation naturally since I can no longer take medication for that purpose and this is unquestionably the best. Eating naturally anti-inflammatory foods reduces many costly illnesses. In my case, I'm trying to beat arthritis (and making good progress) but I didn't realize how many other conditions benefit from eating the right foods--or how many are caused or aggravated by the poor American diet. We don't value our health much until we lose it, at which point we become a cog in the medical industry wheel, dependent on doctors and pills for our continued existence. Ugh! We have a choice to take back control of our lives by changing our eating habits. This book offers well researched information and sound advice in a very readable format. I feel a hundred times better after making the recommended changes--and I've lost weight painlessly. This is not a gimmicky diet book; it gives us reasons to eat well so we can live healthy lives.
