Editorial Reviews

Emily Boller's story is of enormous importance and will help many people. This is the only book on eating disorders that grasps the critical significance of the Standard American Diet as a contributing cause and that correctly identifies nutritional density as an essential aspect of recovery. Starved to Obesity is foundational to true recovery and turns recovery into something attainable and natural rather than a perpetual struggle. Beautifully, magnificently done!

We are facing an epidemic of obesity and Type 2 diabetes with its acute, chronic, debilitating, deadly diseases. Fast food and sugars are horribly addictive. This book completely describes the problem and gives a solution. A great book! I would recommend it to everyone.
