Not only do you get great recipes you get the research to confirm this is the way to eat! You get a wealth of information for 22.95 not a bad deal! I highly recommend this book if you are at all interested in your health.

Awesome! Finally, someone has put together the nutritional data with the anthropological data and shown people how to select and prepare food in a sane, health building way. Given that "we are what we eat," this may be one of the most important books you'll ever read. A masterpiece of extensive research and unblinking common sense. Get it. It's a fantastic resource.

This book is without doubt the best book I have ever read regarding healthful eating. I always wondered why my body had trouble digesting certain foods, particularly beans, lentils, and grains for example. For me, the soaking, fermenting and sprouting are the keys. When foods are not prepared optimally, digestion can be difficult; not to mention the poor assimilation of nutrients. This book is extremely educational and I recommend that everyone read it, practice it, and have a copy in the kitchen for daily reference. Thank you Sally. (Price Pottenger may have a few copies available).
Great recipes .. interesting information that surprises! September 20, 1998
20 out of 21 found this review helpful
The fact that our ancestors only ever ate grain that was either fermented or sprouted was enough of a revelation to me to make it the sole reason I am glad I bought this book. I've subsequently experimented with fermenting my morning muesli and it IS GREAT ... truly ... not fizzy or weird tasting, not what you'd think at all. The idea behind this fermenting ... grains are very hard to digest and starting the digestive break-down process ahead of time by fermenting the grain allows your body's digestive powers to make full nutritional use of the grain ( well ... once you eventually do convince yourself to take the first mouthful that is!). This book presents many opposite opinions from currently held dietary advice with some very convincing evidence to back it up. As a sobering 'other side to the dietary argument' with the addition of having great recipes from around the world and loads of related little bits of information alongside the recipes, I think this is a great buy and a great gift for a friend.
