Summary: Divine, Healthy and Easy To Prepare
Comment: The Schwarzebein Principle Vegetarian Cookbook is a dream come true. I am a some-time vegetarian and my meals have tended to be brown rice, steamed vegetables, baked potatoes and salads. This great book has broadened my horizons and totally changed my mind about tofu. The recipes are incredibly tasty and easy to prepare, even for a cook-by-the numbers guy such as myself. I again commend the authors for their tofu recipes (I've usually found tofu to taste like an eraser), their fabulous soups, salad dressings and variety of breakfast treats. The Schwarzbein Principle has opened a new world of dieting for me, being able to eat great tasting meals that I can prepare myself. I've been on the diet for over one month and have lost 10 pounds. And all without starving myself or eating the kind of bizarre food combinations that often appear in other diet books. Hooray for this fabulous book and the freedom its gives vegetarians!

Summary: Too Many Carbs!!!
Comment: Generally, Dr. Schwarzbein is on the right track. However, as someone who was diagnosed with Insulin Resistance Syndrome two and a half years ago and who has tried every possible way of eating, I can confidently state that there is no way to recover from the symptoms of this illness--diabetes, high blood pressure, high insulin, high cholesterol, high triglycerides and obesity--and eat as many starchy vegetables and grain products as Schwarzbein includes in this cookbook. I'm not surprised that another reviewer and his wife experienced a surge in cholesterol level from eating this way. In her orignal book, The Schwarzbein Princple, Dr. Schwarzbein shows several levels of recommended carbohydrate consumption based on the physical health of the individual. If you have any or all of the above-listed symptoms, I can tell you from experience that you must use the lowest carb level she recommends, which means you will have to be very selective with the recipes in this book. I can tell you from personal experience that if you have I-R Syndrome or any of it's symptoms, you can't continue to eat starchy vegetables and grain products and hope to get better. I've watched family members continue to go downhill on the standard diets offered by their endocrinologists. I strongly recommend you try Protein Power, Atkins or Neaderthin and keep your carb intake between 30-55 grams per day max. It's hard to do, but it beats ending up blind or on dialysis.

Summary: A wonderful guide to healthful eating
Comment: I just loved this book. It expanded our diet at home to includes lots of foods so that this sometime non-vegetarian doesn't miss meat nearly as much (all the women in the family are basically vegetarians). thanks for helping a father eat more healthfully with his family.
