I can not believe I spent actual money on this book!
It should be titled 'Sanctimonious Instructions For Living'.
Just a observation... some of the previous reviews sound like seeded advertising.

This is a very sound and easy progrram to follow and I am stil doing many of the suggested things from each of the 8 weeks. I read the book in Oct. 2009. Dr. Weil has been around in the field of health for a long time and I find his help optimal. The breathing exercises are truly great and I find them helpful whether in bed, on the job or out in the world. Good breathing is most helpful to any program one chooses as it relaxes the body as well as energising it. It does for me anyway. I was a shallow breather most of my life and this program keeps me on track daily!!! Can't ask for more than that. Eating certain veggies, grains, fish and sticking with the basics make for wonderful habits to keep ones body doing the most for itself. We are amazing machines when treated with respect and having gratitude!!! This is very prominent in this program. Go for it!!!


I love this book

Relaxation breath he teaches really helps. Great book if you want to start living a healthier lifestyle. IT is not comprehensive but can guide you in the right direction. I wish Dr Weil would add more info on meditation. That would make this book just about perfect.

This is a great concept for the change of your life. Weight falls off and if your like protein foods, you're never hungry: but don't cheat....a little bit of carbs and you are dying for more sugar of any kind.

A tad outdated, but still very helpful to the beginner.

Basic & simple - great for getting anyone started without overwhelming the newbie.

As a Pro Trainer, I like the gentle approach for the new fitness enthusiast. This one will help you get started if you are just getting off the couch.

I personally would rather a straight forward "DO THIS" approach, rather than all the explanations and history of this diet. I think a book on "why" and a book on "how" would have set me in the right direction much sooner. Over all good book however.


I tried it and it works. It's as simple as that.

Im not into long reviews. I don't like reading long reviews myself so I wont bore you. I tried the diet and it worked. In the first two weeks alone I lost 20 pounds without exercise. In 6 months I lost 70 pounds. I put other friends on it and they had similar results. It's now 5 years since I went on Atkins and Im still thin and energetic. Im 40 years old and look as if Im in my late 20's. (A by-product of the glutathione and other vitamins found naturally in beef). It works and its as simple as that.

If you are interested in the Adkins diet but were afraid to try it because of concerns it wasn't safe, incomplete, or not nutritionally balanced, this book is for you. Within its pages you will be assured that Doctor Adkins considered his diet plan carefully before publishing his info.


Scientifically proven to be the most effective weight-loss diet
Rating (5)
Date: 2010-04-17


There are about eight or so scientific studies published so far, which demonstrate the effectiveness of the Atkins diet and its superiority to other diets with respect to the speed and amount of weight loss. The markers of cardiovascular health are also IMPROVED by this diet. Bad cholesterol and total cholesterol are reduced to normal levels by the Atkins diet. These scientific results fly in the face of the traditional dietary advice to avoid saturated fat and to avoid dietary cholesterol. The latest science shows that dietary fat does not cause obesity and dietary cholesterol has no effect on blood cholesterol (the latter is synthesized in the liver).

The extremely low-carb regimen does not have to be maintained after the desired results have been achieved and Robert Atkins advises adding limited amounts of various carbohydrate-rich foods to your day-to-day diet.

My advice to Atkins followers is to avoid meat and fat cooked at high temperatures (frying, grilling, baking, roasting, etc) because they contain detectable levels of carcinogens and high levels of cholesterol oxidation products. If you use boiled or steamed meat (moderate cooking temperature), you will eliminate those undesirable chemicals from your diet and you will also feel much better.
