Dr. Fuhrman is one of the leading doctors in diet-disease correlations. He is respected among his peers and Dr. Oz features him frequently on his show. Anyway, all this is just a preface to the fact that I ordered Dr. F's book last week and just received it today!
It was published in 1995, and he has since authored several other books. But I am interested in what he has to say about fasting, and perhaps some protocols. I don't suspect there will be a lot of earth shattering news in these pages, based on what Charissa and I have already researched. However, I am always looking for that extra little nugget, that prepositional phrase which adds threads to the tapestry of our health. Mostly, I am just looking for reinforcement, encouragement and support.
The holidays are upon us, and we face food frenzies. Books like this serve as a helpful reminder, I think, to our worldview that our bellies are not our boss. Or, at least, all the time.
