Wheatgrass juice is superjuice.
I love that book a lot. As I was young, I ate moderate, like most people are eating. We have organic cooked food meat and also organic baked bread.But in our society, people eat what they like, what tastes best and is affordibale, but no one really knows what is really healthy.There is also a lot of false information out there, because the industry wants to earn billions of money and they use the complexity of food toconfuse the people. Then they say, we have to put much sugar into cereals, because people buy it. But there are only a few good nutrition experts out there to help us to swim against the medioc main stream of nutrition. Highly processed food pasteurized and cooked food is dead food.I created a bad eating habbit, because I wanted to reward myself with sweets. It is kind of interesting, sugar - sweets can be a dangerous substitude for love and acceptance. What I found out, that white refined sugar is dangerous in big quantities, because it eats up the minerals in the body and causes hair and bone loss. It also is acidic and that causes the body to use up the few minerals in the blood to keep the right ph in the blood.If the body has a lack of minerals, because of poor nutrition, than it has to take the minerals of the hair. The hair gets thinner and falls out over the period of years. As I improved my diet with fresh made vegetable juices and sprouts my hair became stronger and thicker. Also I cut short the bad sweets like cookies , cakes, chocolate, ice cream...That is why I love books like the hippocraties diet, because they give us precious informations, how to feed our bodies healthy. The only thing which is not up to date are the old models of juicers. Back 50 years ago the champion juicer was the top of the line, today it is the Omega VSJ 843 430$, or the angel juicer 959$.First I believed healthy food tastes no good. But that is wrong. There are many thousands of recipies out there, which taste great, you only have to check them out. The tastebuts change after they get used to certain foods. I will grow wheatgrass myself and do sprouting, because this is the best way to have high quality food for maximum life and fun.Your Veit Ullrich

Fantastic book
So easy to read, so informative. It is an eye opener if you believe that food is meant to preserve your health not only to reward your palate. To follow this diet a hundred percent is very difficult, at least it has been form me, but I have increased my consumption of raw living foods to become at least 80% of my daily diet and in a very short amount of time I have seen such a big difference, and I was already on a "healthy" vegetarian diet. My mood, energy levels, sleep time have all improved in an unexpected manner. It is unbelievable that this knowledge has been around for so long and is so little known. Specially these days with so many nutrition related diseases.threatening our health and our pockets.

Read, then act on this!!!
This book spells out easily and completely the way to take charge and improve your health now. If you never start, you will not begin to reverse the years of food, chemical, and environment poisoning that your body has become accustomed to leading to the onset of the major diseases and ill health conditions that his generation is experiencing in proportions never before known.In conjunction with other Wheatgrass and Ann Wigmore books, I feel better without medicine or pharmaceuticals of any kind in only a few short weeks. I lost 15 pounds the first two weeks without strenuous dieting. My craving for sweets has disappeared without any thought or struggle. Understanding these simple practices of biology is made easy through these books fromthe Hippocrates Institute.

poison conspiracy
Discovering the basic information in Wigmore's could easily prompt one to feel there is a poison conspiracy within the health system, at least in the U.S. We constantly hear about new "life saving vaccines" for everything from measles to the swine flu, from cancer to aids and yet it's never made clear that these "medical wonders" actually do NOTHING to their targeted ailments. Their ONLY purpose is to "prompt" our bodies to protect us from them. In other words for our bodies to naturally provide a defense or cure for the disease or ailment. Wigmore accurately points out that this natural ability to maintain good health is something we have within our bodies, evolved over millions of years of surviving in the midst of all the maladies our world has produced. Why are we suffering from the myriad of health challenges we suddenly find in our world? We have to look no further than what we are putting in our mouths. While what we are doing to our planet in terms of pollution etc. has an effect on our health she accurately points out that it is our cooked, over processed food that is turning off our natural healing power. This of course produces enormous profit for our "for profit" health system. While I do not subscribe to a conspiracy I think Wigmore gives us the essence of what we need for optimum health. It's enzymes.

I like this book but it is not interesting enough
This book is good but I was not able to get through it. Maybe I am not ready to embrace all the changes this books suggests to become healthy. I think I would need to be very rich to afford this type of lifestyle. There is very good information in the book I just can't live it. If I personally had family support to follow the directions in the book, I would most likely have been able to get through the book. Unfortunately the book was not motivating enough for me to stick with it to the very end of the book.
