This book is my new Bible for my diet and my patients. It’s practical information is invaluable. The science relating to this difficult field is raised to a new level. And what is unusual about this book is the compassionate feeling which is conveyed throughout. It is clearly advice for people of all ages.

This is a good, helpful book, though a bit of a chore to slog through. There are too many sidebars, which I found disruptive, and the book seems to be written as though the author is talking to a young child, that is, simplistic, if not, sophmoric. However, what the author has to say and some of his advice and insights are very much worthwhile. I do think it may have been more effective without the “case studies;” a more straightforward account of children’s relationships with foods in the early part of this century.

This is a really terrific book! Dr. Ludwig has done brilliant research on the cause of obesity. This book is actually the second food fight he has ended. The first was between the low carbohydrate and the low fat diet proponents. His definitive research findings show that the low glycemic carbohydrate diet is superior to the low fat diet. This book ends the food fight between the loving parents who want the best for their child and the food producers who just want your children to eat as much as possible to fatten their profits.
If any of your children are overweight, you MUST read this book. Dr. Ludwig addresses the problem of motivating your child to lose weight in a loving, down to earth, practical way.

We are thrilled to highlight Dr. Ludwig’s book to our families dealing with food allergies in children, as processed foods (Dr. Ludwig’s “fake foods”) may present risks to children with food allergies given the hidden allergens that they can contain. Dr. Ludwig’s book offers inspiring guidelines of how parents can affect healthy changes in the diets of their families.

I hold a doctorate in nutrition and have been a registered dietitian for more than 30 years. This is the book that I have been waiting for to help families deal with eating issues that affect children today. Dr. Ludwig is the nation’s foremost expert on nutrition and children. He is unique in that he both conducts high-power research studies to confirm what he tells his patients is correct, and bcounsels overweight children in his clinical practice. He has learned first hand what children experience related to the pressures they feel from the food industry and their peers. I am getting this book for my grandson (aged 6 months; it is never too soon to start eating healthy). I only wish it were avaiable for my own children when they were younger.
