RODALE The Happiness Diet: A Nutritional Prescription for a Sharp Brain, Balanced Mood, and Lean, Energized Body

I was struggling with not having enough energy and brain fog. I had also suffered with depression for a long time. I began eating according to the categorization in the book, making sure I had something from each category daily. Unbelievable difference in all things. I no longer struggled with energy level and I was able to focus and concentrate on things more easily and readily. One of the major differences I noticed was my change in mood. It had changed so profoundly that I had gone a number of weeks before I realized that I not had any depressive episodes (other than PMS). I actually forgot what it felt like to be depressed. I found myself content most of the time and there were times I realized I was really enjoying myself. I was more willing to take on challenges and feel good about myself. Thanks so very much for writing this. :)

Libro molto interessante

I think this is an excellent book with a lot of great information, sadly I've passed it on to someone else and am now thinking I might have to buy it again ! as I feel it would be good to keep as a reference.I have suffered from eating disorders in the past and have spent a lot of my life trying to lose weight or being unhappy about my weight, one of the things I find is that on a lot of calorie controlled or restricted diets you end up being irritable and miserable which is bad not only for yourself but also your family. This is what prompted me to buy the book.This is not a 'diet' (as in losing weight) book as such, but a 'diet' as in eating sensibly, healthily and normally.I have achieved a healthy BMI of under 25 for the first time in about 10 years and I'm not on a diet.My only dislike is that it is rather 'American' in its approach, but I would say you can read through that to some good sound advice.

I am a medical professional and read and research A LOT about nutrition and I can find no fault in the science behind this book. There was also enough in this book that I didn't know to keep me interested and reading. I bought the kindle version, and like it enough to want the paper version so I don't ruin the kindle in the kitchen. I tried two of the recipes tonight, and they were both yummy and ridiculously simple to make. (Except, in the baked cod recipe, the ingredient list says "3 pats of butter" but the instructions only tell you when to us 1 of them...but it turned out great with just the one.) I am visiting family now, but as soon as I get home I am cleaning out my cabinets and shopping for a chest freezer. The plan is simple, easy, yet flexible. Although, I say this because I live in the Bay Area with a Whole Foods every few miles and I have a CSA. If, like many of my friends, I lived in the Midwest, it would be more difficult to find the foods recommended, but still possible to make drastic improvements in ones diet. When I lived in Indiana, it never occurred to me a cow could NOT eat corn... and I am not sure you can even buy grass-fed beef in a store there. But I am rambling. I think I want a case of these to give to all of my friends and family. Even if they never read the information, they can just pretend it is a cookbook with an exceptionally long foreword and eat better. I will revise my review after a few weeks of happily eating.--------------------I think it makes a difference. My diet isn't 100% "Happy" but with movements in this direction for a while, and replacing my animal products to be more "happy" I feel better and my skin looks great. It was subtle, but then I went back to Indiana for a week and staying in a hotel in a rural area and ate SAD food, and I really felt it.

Ich würde gerne eine Rezension abgeben, wenn ich das Buch enldich erhalten würde!!!!!!Ist bisher nicht bei mir eingetroffenBesten Gruß
