Customer Review: a dieter in Marietta, GA
I don’t know why this diet never quite made it. I first saw it on one of the morning shows and decided to try it then. I never felt like I was on a diet because I enjoyed what I was allowed to have. The weight AND inches came off very quickly. The book says that unless you have the “starvation response” that this diet will not work for you. However, I had a good idea that I had the problem after reading the beginning chapters. This diet WORKS. If you are looking for something new, I would recommend this not so new diet. Again, I don’t understand why it didn’t stick around longer.
Customer Review: A Revolutionary Approach to Dieting!!!!!!
This principle actually works!! It will take some getting used to, but it is worth a try. The author is a scientist and his thesis is based on regulation of blood sugar and the glycemic index of food.Fascinating!!!!!!!You will love how any excess fat disappears from places you thought it would never leave!!!!!!
Invisible Illnesses 
THIS BOOK IS WRITTEN FOR THE MILLIONS OF “INVISIBLE ILLNESS” VICTIMS, who are viewed with suspicion, hostility and anger in a world and consciousness that demands scientific evidence and double-blind studies before acknowledging the condition is “Real.” This book will provide some of that much needed scientific evidence to facilitate validation of these syndromes. It’s important to keep in mind that science does not make or invent principles; they merely discover them.
The information in this book will assist the reader in the discovery of the causes of their distress, while also providing non-drug solutions to restore health and regain quality of life, Naturally.

Customer Review: A good resource, but should not be your only resource
Gilbere wrote a kind of “one size fits all” book for people with MCS, fibromyalgia, and other psychosomatic/chemical and difficult-to-define diseases. I would agree that a fresh approach is necessary, particularly with the way Western medicene treats people with psychosomatic illnesses. I would encourage anyone to read the book and utilize the suggestions in the book as appropriate, with several caveats. First, the book reads like an advertisement for the different products that Gilbere has used or recommends for people with MCS. By all means, if they help you, buy them, but I would carefully consider what may or may not help you before you spend a lot of money. Second, the book is somewhat poorly written and dances around the issue of what really will cure specific diseases. Your specific problem may be solved by just one of her recommendations, or none of them, but her shotgun approach involves a great deal of time, effort, and possibly discomfort for the patient and much of the products and procedures can be debated as to whether they are helpful - or proven. Last, the book does cover the emotional elements of psychosomatic/chemical illnesses but is perhaps underemphasized. WAY underemphasized. I would recommend the book, as I mentioned in the title, but I wouldn’t use it as your only resource. Also, good judgement must be used - the book can do more harm than good if you are averse to chemical smells or food additives and so on - reading about the different negative effects of chemicals and what is making our air, food, and enviornment toxic can lead to greater fear of adverse effects and a more restricted lifestyle. econ
Customer Review: NOTHING NEW
A friend informed me of this book, but I was very disappointed. It was the same old info that I have previously read in other health books.
