[.ca] Body By God: The Owner's Manual For Maximized Living (ISBN 078528835X)

Why are Christians just as sick as the rest of the world?:
Is it all the pot lucks? Who knows. We need to read all books on health and nutrition and God's Word on healing. Check out also "A More Excellent Way" by pastor Henry Wright. Good book on the spiritual roots of disease. "Deadly Emotions" by Doc Don Colbert also will keep stinking thinking from destroying your temple.

This book changed my life!:
This is not just another diet book! In fact it's an "un-diet". It offers practical and achievable ways to radically transform your life (at any stage) one step at a time. Not just a food and fitness guide but a guide to maximize your life through time management, stress management as well as weight loss, food and exercises. Dr. Lerner's sense of humor is encouraging and entertaining along the way. In just a short time I have increased my energy and lowered my stress and I am looking forward to more results as I continue this program.

Dr. Michael L. Johnson:
A Great Book!! "Body by God" is a must read if you plan on living a healthy, happy, and organized life. Dr. Ben has helped me organize my life since reading this powerful and moving book. How, you might ask??? One example is that I have FINALLY found the balance in life that I was seeking between family(I'm married with 5 kids),work, and personal training thanks to this book. The "un-diet" is great and I loved the passages from scripture. This book is a must read and one that you will find yourself going back to time and time again. Dr. Michael L. Johnson author of "What Do You Do When the Medications Don't Work--A Non-Drug Treatment of Dizziness, Migraine Headaches, Fibromyalgia, and Other Chronic Conditions".

Wacky advice:
One of the authors' ideas is "To get children weaned off cow's milk and dairy products, take them out into a cow pasture and ask them if they would want to suck out of a cow udder." But if we are supposed to eat beef, should we bite the cow instead? And why did God say the Promised Land was flowing with "milk and honey" if milk is supposed to be a man-made, and bad, food? It takes a (painful) stretch of the imagination, not a leap of faith, to heed the advice concerning diet in this book.
