Summary: Extreme attitude toward food
Comment: If you can change your eating habits to follow Marilu Henner's health makeover, well good for you. You are a better person than me. In this book she asks people to give up dairy, most meat, caffeine, sugar and to combine foods every time you eat. So, if you eat melon, never eat anything with it. But if you eat chicken, then you had better have a grapefruit too. I found the overall makeover really demanding. I could never follow it to the letter.
BUT, Marilu does have some good points on why foods like dairy, sugar and meat are really pretty bad for you. I liked her ideas, and have modified my diet because of some of her ideas. I feel better and more energetic, as she promised. And she also asks you to address your health makeover one step at a time. I think that is realistic.
This easy read is good information to have if you are looking for a way to eat healthy. But don't read it and follow it to the letter. It is way too demanding, and I think some of her ideas are medically uninformed. So, balance this book with another book on eating well.

Summary: Negative reviews stem from denial & lack of trying
Comment: I purchased this book approx. 3 1/2 weeks ago and gradually started applying the changes in my eating habits along with the overall knowledge that Marilu provides here. I've found the transition to be simple and truly beneficial in how I look & feel. I've lost 11 1/2 lbs in 2 weeks and I don't feel deprived. Someone had commented on the extreme cost - Granted rice and soy milk may be more expensive. However, I no longer purchase all the junk foods and garbage I used to eat which has resulted in a drop in my grocery expenses. If you truly READ this and FOLLOW THROUGH, you will see & feel the results. Buy it and USE IT. "USE IT" being the operative word. I don't think Marilu could have spelled it out any clearer - Yet she does with her book "The 30 day Total Health Makeover" which get's 6 stars!

Summary: Make a Life-time change!
Comment: LIFESTYLE CHANGE
Apparently after years of fluctuating weight, diets, doctors, therapists, nutritionists, etc., etc., Marilu Henner of "Taxi" fame has compiled a book with an approach to bring health and vitality to a new level and to add years to your life. She intends to get you to rid your old lifestyle habits.
CONVERSATIONAL TONE, HUMOROUS - This book is written in a very casual conversational tone. Included are pictures of herself during various stages of her life. It is like she is addressing you personally because the books lacks the hard core technical mumble jumble that most health books contain. Healthy recipes offering colorful pictures fill many pages.
FOOD COMBINING - GREAT THAT'S ALL WE NEED, ANOTHER CHALLENGE
You can follow much of the requirements such as reexamining your relationship with food, your lifestyle and your health. However, when I read about "food combining" I was taken aback! It isn't easy making drastic changes, but when she tells you too watch what foods you combine, I find this just another difficult step that seems quite a challenge. Food combining is when protein and starches are eaten together, it takes too much energy to digest that meal. This is explained thoroughly. Probably one of the most challenging conquests to better living.
THE COMPLETE SCOOP ON OUR POOP! Henner discusses the digestive process and its disorders, everything you ever wanted to know about poop - but were too embarrassed to ask! Everything is here, from consistency, color, how often, how much, etc.
TEN STEP PROGRAM - The book is laid out to cover Ten Steps to a complete makeover - One Step at A Time starting at a beginner level (easing gradually into changes) to makeover maniac.
1. Chemicals - all about reading ingredients.
2. Caffeine Cutting down on caffeine
3. Sugar - actually working toward eliminating everything sweet
4. Meat - that dreaded meat again!
5. Dairy - Giving up dairy products
6. Food Combining - Oh boy, this isn't going to be easy!
7. Fat - Can't ever leave fat discussions out of healthy lifestyle change
8. Exercise and Stress - Walk, jog, strengthen!
9. Sleep - Notice your sleep pattern
10. Gusto - Just plain gusto!
If you can follow this plan, faithfully, you may just live to be 120 years old. ........MzRizz.
