Reviews

[Mary Karpel-Jergic · Rating 4 out of 5]

Incredibly accessible book which provides an introduction to the benefits of eating raw food. Reference to scientific studies and a comprehensive overview of a lifestyle to foster good health. The author is the director of the Hippocrates Health Institute in Florida. If I lived in the US I would definitely visit!

[Sylvain Bérubé · Rating 2 out of 5]

Rarement me suis-je senti aussi vulnérable en lisant un livre. Dans le sens où je sentais qu'on pouvait me bullshitter n'importe-quoi d'une page à l'autre sur un domaine, la nutrition, que je connais peu. Enfin, peu, suffisamment pour déceler quelques énormités dans ce livre, d'où la nécessité de remettre en question chaque paragraphe, ce qui est essoufflant à la longue.

J'y reviendrai peut-être lorsque ma culture sur le sujet sera plus relevée, pour l'instant je reste sur ma faim.
