Reviews

Duke University's rice diet program has been proven as a safe and fast method to reverse and prevent heart disease--the cause of 42 percent of all deaths in the U.S.--and also high blood pressure, diabetes, kidney disease, and obesity. Dietitian Rosati, the program's nutrition director, outlines this challenging three-part program: an aggressive diet (low in fat, extremely low in salt, and at least initially vegetarian), moderate exercise, and a spiritual or emotional path of one's choice (not just stress management). The latter component, according to the author, gives the dieter the needed strength to change unhealthy lifestyles and comply with this rigorous plan. Complete, detailed discussions of nutrition basics, food labeling, grains and beans, herbs as a substitute for salt, and a selection of spiritual-emotional pathways are followed by more than 150 recipes and sources for cookbooks and specific food items.
