Wolfe's book is very informative. I knew before reading the book that Wolfe is an outspoken raw foodist, so I was not surprised by some of this his recommendations. The book discusses foods which contain properties of 'beauty'--which really means health. Many of the foods are obvious, some less so (burdock root?????). I've been eating his arugula/watercress salad this week, which I love. I enjoyed the book, but wonder about some of his assertions. The book contains no references/bibliography. He also promotes his own products throughout the book, which I found highly annoying. David Wolfe was one of the speakers for my nutrition program and being intrigued by his talk, I wanted to read some of his books. About the raw, fresh foods with the maximum health and beauty benefits as well as the foods to stay away from. Although I don't agree with him on every point, Wolfe makes some very persuasive arguments that the life force contained in the foods we eat add to our own body's life force and well being. The Kirlian photography in the book is beautiful and fascinating (Kirlian photography shows the amount of energy and life force in foods). An interesting and engaging book especially for anyone interested in raw and vegan lifestyles.
