More About This Book

Overview

A revolutionary diet to help you lose weight and control disease-causing inflammation

The Inflammation-Free Diet Plan will help you achieve your ideal weight—without fad dieting—while also reducing pain and allergies, slowing the aging process, and dramatically reducing your risk for dozens of medical problems. This flexible, easy-to-follow program is the ideal nutritional solution for every member of the family.

At the heart of the program is the revolutionary IF Rating system that, for the first time, tells you the inflammatory or anti-inflammatory effects of all of the foods you eat. The IF Rating integrates more than twenty different nutritional factors, including essential fatty acids, glycemic index, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory compounds into a single rating which guides your food choices for the day.

You no longer have to worry about choosing the right types of carbs or fats, or even counting calories—the IF Rating combines all those factors into a simple, holistic system for healthy eating! And unlike other programs that focus only on carbohydrates or fats, the IF Rating system also shows you which proteins are healthy and which provoke inflammation.

It all adds up to a uniquely healthful, easy to follow diet plan that fights illness and promotes weight loss! The Inflammation-Free Diet Plan gives you:

  • IF Ratings for more than 1,500 common foods, listed both alphabetically and by categories, such as “Breakfast Cereals” and “Meats”
  • Self-assessments for measuring your level of systemic inflammation
  • A choice of three customizable eating plans: Preventative/Maintenance, Therapeutic, and Accelerated Weight-Loss
  • Three weeks worth of daily meal plans and dozens of delicious anti-inflammatory recipes

With The Inflammation-Free Diet Plan, you'll learn how to stop the silent enemy in its tracks and get started on the road to a longer, healthier, more vibrant life—today.

    I was able to manage my eczema, and lost weight following the principles of The inflammation-Free Diet Plan.

    Reading and applying the principles and formulas from this book to my diet choices,I have experienced an eczema free time for one month now and have finally lost weight. Before,every time I tried to loose weight,I ended by gaining more. Together with diet controls of limiting my inflammation quota and just a beginner yoga exercise CD, I have lost 30 pounds and finally have healed my eczema. In four months I have stopped feeling the affects of fibromyalghia on my body.

    Helpful Healing While Eating

    Purchased the book, after heart surgery, recognizing the value of a natural way to improve my eating habits without use of so many other drugs or prescriptions. My profile isn't the usual "CAD" patient and I, along with my willing cardiologist, wanted to reduce my C-Reactive Protein (CRP) value. It's working and both my wife and I enjoy the knowledge gained from the book. The recipes and "+" Inflammation Factors (good values) are easy to follow, compensating for the "-" inflammation Factors (bad values). I don't see this as a diet, it's more like eating smarter.

    Good Motivator

    We all know that saturated fats and sugar are bad for your health, but the information about the link between diet and inflammation-linked diseases (the list is long)is news to me. While I have not rigidly followed a diet plan from the book, I have become aware of the relative inflammation ratings of different foods and these ratings have informed my selections at the grocery store. I try to end up each day on the plus side after totalling up the IRs of all my foods. As a result, I have lost weight and have less joint pain. This is a good read, if only to scan the best and worst foods in each category and remember a few. You will at least feel better about your food choices.

    To Good To Be True

    It seemed very convincing and made a lot of sense. There is something so logical about counteracting inflammitory foods with inflammation-free foods. If you're eating something that's inflammatory then eat something that will counteract it. Easy enough. But coming from a inflamed body and looking for relief, I cannot say this plan worked. There may be at some level that some of this is true and works. But, either I'm too far gone for anti-inflammatory foods to work on me or this needs to go back to the work table. I still believe this book has merit, I just don't know if it is as simple as it implies.

    Disappointed

    I think the author does a pretty good job of explaining what inflammation is but I was so disappointed in the types of food she allows you to eat on this plan. Her entire system is really hard to follow and very discouraging. I would much rather follow Dr. Weil's Anti-Inflammatory Food Pyramid. It is easy to understand and very positive.

    Best long-term results ever from a simple diet plan

    Both my husband and I lost over 20% of our weight with very little effort. It has been 2 years and we have not gained any weight back. We work with a number of people with inflammatory problems and recommend this book on a regular basis. "Too Good to Be True" commented that the diet did not help her inflammation much. This may be because she is constantly getting reinfected by her environment. A simple, inexpensive do-it-yourself mold test can determine this. Others like her that have cleaned up their environments and followed the diet have expressed extraordinary results. Don't give up.
