Publisher's summary

In this newly updated and repackaged follow-up to Fit For Life, one of the best-selling diet books of all time, nutritional specialist Harvey Diamond teaches listeners how to live a long, healthful life by making smart dietary changes, adopting a clean diet, and offering a blueprint for optimal health, pain-free living, increased energy and weight loss without deprivation.

Did you know that on average each one of us will consume approximately 70 tons of food in our lifetime? The amount of time, effort, and energy necessary to obtain, prepare, and consume all that food, plus the effort of your body to break it down, extract, and utilize what you need from it, and eliminate the rest, represents a hugely significant portion of your time on this planet. This book demystifies and simplifies the entire subject, while empowering you to know that you and you alone are in control of whether you live your life in good or ill health.

Through intelligent dietetic decisions, you can harness the powerful healing energy of food. Step-by-step, in simple, understandable language, listeners learn what pain, ill health, and disease really are, how and why they occur, and how they can be avoided. The book explains all you need to know about the single most important ally you have: your body's lymph system, the heart and soul of the immune system and the mechanism in your body whose explicit job and function is to keep you well. The secret to long-term, vibrant health lies in the understanding of the lymph system and what steps you can take to support its activities, not thwart them.

This ultimate diet and health plan is a comprehensive, cutting-edge program to reduce weight, lower cholesterol, combat serious diseases, and maintain vitality. More than a review of diseases such as cancer or how to manage them, this important book makes the strategic transition from treatment to prevention. People are increasingly taking responsibility for decisions concerning their health. Fit for Life: A New Beginning empowers the individual to make health-care decisions that are based on personal research; indeed, it accelerates this process. While it does discuss diagnosis and treatment, its real message is that you can prevent disease.

This stuff works!

Actually utilized these concepts around 20 years ago to great results. I got lost in all the Keto and intermittent fasting which only confuses. This is so straight forward and effective!

Life Changing

A sensible way to get your health back on track. Yes, it requires effort but it’s not all one or none.

Great information - will put into practice & see

It the opposite of what has worked so well the last 2.5 years with Keto & carnivore. I intermittent fast often and love it so the mono plan will be fun to try.

Fan for Life

I’ve been a Harvey and FFL fan and advocate since the first book. Over the years I’ve strayed some but always come back to the core principles of this wonderful way of living. It works. Highly recommended.

Very well done, polarizing topic

Very powerful industries that have billions of dollars to lose would hate to see stuff in this book implemented. It is very well written and well read.

Snake Oil

If you want to know what this book says, I will tell you in this brief review. Periodically you should eat fruits and vegetables or do some fasting. Drink the cleanest water you can. Other than that this book is contradictory on several occasions and cherry picks studies and anecdotes to support the authors claims.

Seems like quackery

I thought this book would have more science-based content in it. Instead, it speaks generically of “toxins” and truth ignored by the medical establishment. For those with a basic understanding of health and nutrition, no new information is presented, and what is new seems to veer into pseudoscience and conspiracy theory.
