Beginner's Guide to Healthy Eating

Andrew Weil has built a kingdom on his advice on healthy eating. Ordinarily I stay away from people who are advice gurus, but his style is so no-nonsense, and he explains so many issues so well (I never understood what insulin does before), that I not only learn a lot, I really enjoy listening to him.

Dr Weil is the narrator/speaker, and it sounds a lot as if he is giving a lecture. The content is so interesting that the rapid fire way in which he gives information is a little disconcerting. Surely if people are listening to an audiobook, the chances are pretty good that they are not somewhere where they can take notes? I was walking in the woods as I was listening, and I think I missed a lot because I didn't write it down. Oh well. He's still worth it.

I doubt I'll remember much of this...

A nice listen, though there aren't many stories, or sticky ideas, so I doubt how much of this I will remember...

Woo Woo Kitchen

The best part about this book is its short length. Rather than being pratical, its a romp thru the land of buzz words, chemical compositions, and Luddite theory regarding the danger of microwaves and processed foods.

If you've already bought into this perspective, then you'll probably dig this book. If you're looking for useful everday advice, or skeptical about the whole organic/whole earth food approach, dont' bother.
