Amazon.com - Joan Price [Dr Phil] offers his unique, , tell-it-like-it-is, take-no-prisoners style to help you change what you eat, why you eat, where you eat, when you eat, and how you eat, all in an individualized approach that's bound to be effective. Highly recommended. Robert Eckel, chairman of the council on nutrition, physical activity and metabolism for the American Heart Association Overall, the dietary principles are sound and consistent with most of the association's recommendations. John Foreyt, director of Behavioral Medicine Research Center at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston It's a sensible book, but there are no surprises; there's nothing new, no magic keys. I would find it difficult to follow the dietary portion.
