For me; Total Health Breakthrough has much information about a healthy diet, lifestyle and medicine choices. Total Health Breakthrough gives a wide overview of numerous health topics!! It is a great resource promoting health and well-being by keeping you healthy and away from the doctor’s office. This is all about prevention which is immense for me! Forget what you ate as a child such as milk, bread, mashed potatoes…..you have to unlearn all of the unhealthy behaviors.
I liked a lot of the recipes in this book. Some were even scrumptious; “zucchini spaghetti” is a boon for the low-carb eater, thin strips of squash serve as a low-carb base for a tasty sauce. And a home-made sausage patty I liked.
Total Health Breakthrough was an eye-opener for me in regards to health and nutrition. Dr. Mercola is intelligent and informed, leading the way in the field of natural health.
I prefer prevention. Dr. Mercola is a sort of Dr. Weil, essentially, he advises vegetables, low to no grains–reduces insulin fluctuations, and healthy meats. He insists most people find that they are not served well by a vegan diet and actually it could harm them. To Mercola, he says; for many, meat or fish are important.
Now here’s what appears to be a problem with his dietary recommendations, not all families, especially one income families, can afford the meat nor perhaps all the organic foods listed. You may have to pick and chose what you can afford if costs are an issue.
One more issue I had with Total Health Breakthrough was Mercola does do the hard sell on many of his products. This is why I gave it 4 stars. I don’t mind him selling us his stuff, but I do feel he goes a bit overboard on his website.
I bought Total Health Breakthrough at the end of December 2009 and read it cover to cover in 1 week as a result 3.5 months later I have lost 20lbs, have absolutely no cravings for sugar or grains. . This book has changed my life and it can do the same for anyone who is serious about being healthy.
I guess I’m closer to the 37 people who raved about Total Health Breakthrough and recommend it highly. If you want to learn more Click Here!
