What people are saying about the RAVE Diet
"Just a quick line to give you some wonderful news. I no
longer have prostate cancer – I am free of cancer at this
time. I had a biopsy done on 10/3 and there is no evidence
of cancer! The RAVE Diet book, the Eating DVD and the
Healing Cancer DVD were instrumental in my recovery and
healing." - Vincent Randazzo
"I gave my parents the video a few weeks ago and after watching
it they started the RAVE diet immediately. My father has had numerous
bypass surgeries (along with numerous other health related surgeries)
and unfortunately must have the lower half of his leg amputated due to
the artificial arteries becoming clogged (again) and no circulation
occurring. After many years of him being on cholesterol lowering
medication with no results, his cholesterol dropped 90 points in 3 weeks
after starting the diet! In addition, he had a kidney transplant 10
years ago and his creatin levels have always been high. Since starting
the diet they too have dropped. His doctors were shocked and told him to
just keep doing what he's doing!" - Christine Chiudina
"I am now 6 months beyond my dead-by-date, NSCLC (lung
cancer). You will be pleased to know your diet is working. Latest X-ray shows the cancer to have 'dissolved
quite a bit' (oncologist's words). I am a 'mystery' to most
people at the hospital as they do not understand why the
cancer is going away." - Malcolm Willet
"My husband's itchy 85 year old skin has vanished after 6
weeks and he is sleeping like a rock, and all of his acid
indigestion and heartburn are now a thing of the past! He
thanks you. My daily adventure of nausea, lightheadedness,
exhaustion, bile vomiting, hemorrhaging, joint pains are
gone and I just got off my high blood pressure medicine
and have lost 6 pounds." - Karen Woods
"After viewing the video, I switched to the RAVE Diet the very
next day. I have lost 25 pounds in six weeks and my whole body has
undergone some incredible changes, all of which are extremely
beneficial. I can't begin to express my gratitude in having this
video pass through my hands. I had been searching for something for a
long time, and the information it contained was just what I
needed." - Norine Laferriere
"My previous CT scan in December showed a 2.4cm tumor in
the neck, and although no primary showed in the throat,
that was located by direct larangoscopy under anesthesia
in February. Last week I had a follow up CT scan and the
neck tumor has shrunk to 1.6cm, which shocked my
traditional doctor, who has been pushing for surgery. In
addition he scoped me in his office, and even knowing
exactly where the primary is, he could not see it on the
scope, and as I said there is nothing significant on the
CT scan. I wanted to let you know about the progress, and
how much I appreciate what an influence you have had on
me." - Kerry J McNamara
"In just a few months, I lost 32 pounds, my medications were cut
in half and my blood sugars, blood pressure and cholesterol have all
dropped dramatically. I am now no longer on insulin!" - Sirmirrion
English (former adult-onset diabetic)
"When I was 11 years old, I was diagnosed with cholesterol of
550. I have been to many different doctors in 15 different states and
tried every kind of cholesterol lowering medication, but nothing worked.
After following a partial RAVE Diet, my cholesterol dropped to 400
points in just a few months. That was the lowest it had ever been in my
life - and without any medication. After transitioning to the full RAVE
Diet, my cholesterol dropped to 225 and is still going down. I am
amazed! My doctors are clueless!" - Emily Burke
"My husband and I have been following the RAVE guidelines for 1
month. He has lost 19 lbs, I have lost 12 and my gastro-intestinal
issues have completely subsided. Also, I was just talking to the co-
worker who pushed me to visit your web site and get the book. She showed
me the 3 new notches in her belt. She has dropped from 164 to 144 lbs!
The RAVE diet is giving me back my health and giving me more quality
time with my daughter and husband. I had focused on quick and easy
eating solutions and completely missed out on the natural bonding
opportunity of cooking, baking and creating." - Cindy-Anne Belanger
"I am 63 and began the RAVE diet four weeks ago. My chronic low
back pain is gone, the eczema on one of my fingers is gone, the receding
in my nail beds is gone, and my fingers no longer peel. My doctor
recommended the diet because I have arthritis and atherosclerosis. What
a huge paradigm shift to be in this eating culture. Thanks for your
work. It's so awesome." - Kate Stromberg
"For years, I have had abnormal pap smears. My gynecologist said
I would have to have surgery if this pre-cancerous condition persisted.
Since starting the RAVE Diet, these cells have disappeared, and now my
paps are completely normal. I have nothing else to attribute this to
except the diet." - Rosemary Byrne, R.N.
"My husband is 59 years old and had a massive heart attack 3
years ago, quad bypass, 3 stents, defibrillator, diabetic (adult onset),
horrid shingles, high blood pressure and before RAVE 205 pounds. Today,
just 2 short months later, he is 180 pounds, off Metformin completely
for his diabetes, off cholesterol medication and feeling better than
when he was 35! One truly amazing thing is that he has not had one
shingles outbreak since starting RAVE. For that alone he will be forever
grateful for your research and putting it all in human terms!
"Before starting RAVE I was on Atkins for about 8 months. I lost
weight and felt OK but after hearing your info on the diet I decided it
was time to stop and try it your way. I told my husband that I would do
it for 2 weeks but if I started to gain weight I would have to rethink
what to do. Well..I have lost another 6 pounds and I feel so great I can
hardly believe its me! Thank you, thank you, from the bottom of my
heart!! We consider you a great blessing from the Lord." - Susan
Hoffmann
"I'm a 53 years old man recovering from a stroke (9 years
ago) with a history of high blood pressure. Since reading your
book and watching the DVD I've lost 50 pounds and reduced my
blood pressure from 200/100 to 125/75 in about 6 months
without any medication." - Kenneth Fay
"I have been on the RAVE lifestyle since last July. I was morbidly
obese weighing in excess of 420 lbs. I am not sure exactly what I
weighed before 420lbs. because my scale did not go that high. I am now
proud to say I am at 214 lbs. and even though I have more weight to lose
I have never felt this way since I was a child. My health, prior to the
lifestyle change was horrible to say the least. I was taking two
medications for my high blood pressure, was dealing with GERDS, and was
borderline diabetic. Along with poor physical health my mental health
was bad due to poor self perception. This meant I was prone to panic
attack and was medicated accordingly. Now my blood pressure is getting
regulated, my GERDS was reversed; I am off of meds for panic attacks,
and off of one of the blood pressure meds. I wanted to say after
watching the program on PBS and buying the book my life and perception
on healthy living and eating has changed for the better. Thank you so
much for showing me the path." - Shawn Jones
"My acne (a twenty year problem) went away once I started
following the diet!" - Donna Leone
"Since I adopted the RAVE Diet just six months ago, it has
caused the greatest percentage drop in my PSA level ever. My PSA is now
0.2 and it has never been this low." - Jerry Kutcher
"I recently discovered the RAVE Diet. I have been plagued with a
condition called folliculitis for about a year now, which manifests
itself in bumps, abscesses, and irritated areas in the groin and
armpits. I was told by the medical community that this condition could
not be treated with antibiotics which would not only be ineffective, but
could result in my developing antibiotic tolerance. I was given some
high-dollar topical salve to apply at outbreak, told to wash three times
a day, and made to believe that I had to live with this condition.
"I have also had, for about 3 years, sore and painful knee
joints and plantar fasciitis to die for; so bad that I had resigned
myself to giving up tennis because I felt that my body would no longer
tolerate the stresses of the impact of the hard courts on my feet and
knees.
"After about 7 days on the RAVE Diet, I began to notice that the
areas of my groin that were involved with bumps and irritation began to
recede and heal. Not just one particular area as had happened in the
past. ALL of the involved areas began to recede and become less
irritated AT THE SAME TIME! Simultaneously, I began to notice that after
Spin and Hi-Low Impact class, my knees did not ache and feel
'soft' like they had been doing for years!
"After one month on the RAVE Diet all traces of the infection
folliculitis is gone. The infected areas have healed and there is no
evidence of new outbreak. Also, I have returned to playing tennis for
the first time in a year. I not only experienced absolutely no knee and
joint pain, I am no longer going through the time- consuming ritual of
wrapping my knees as I have had to for a very long time now. I have also
lost about 18 lbs. and I feel better, I sleep better, and I recover from
workouts better and faster that I ever have." - Denise Ray
“I want to thank you for changing my
life and how I view the world! I had terrible asthma for
all of my life. I took four to five medications at a time.
My childhood was miserable because almost everything I
tried to do brought on an attack. About four years ago I
watched the DVD. I am happy to say that I am now
completely asthma free and on NO medications! I have also
been part of three other asthmatics life changes through
your DVD. I live compassionately and full of good health!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!” - Lorrie Moran-Plante
What readers are saying about the RAVE Diet Book
and Eating DVD"As a medical doctor, I have to say that your book and DVD are
simply amazing!" - Connie Godenick, M.D.
"I never thought I would see it happen. At last, a respected
medical group has the guts to authenticate what those of us involved in
nutrition have been trying to promote for so long." - Dan E.
Chesnut, M.D.
"I would make everyone watch a DVD called “Eating – 3rd
Edition – by Mike Anderson. I have always been an advocate
for healthy living through exercise and good nutrition and
this DVD is a fantastic way to help teach kids and their
parents about how to eat properly." - Gary Player,
professional golfer
"The first part of the book is an excellent summary of the
detrimental consequences (heart disease, cancer, diabetes, etc) of our
typical eating patterns and the dangerous fad diets that abound today.
The second part provides the details of the Rave Diet. With amazing
simplicity and a few changes in our lifestyle we can obtain optimal
health and even reverse disease. The book is very easy reading and well
grounded in scientific research. It is one of the most influential books
I have read in my lifetime." - Phil Kaplan
"Both the film and the book are nothing short of life-changing.
I'd already heard most of the information you give in the book and
film, but never all in one place and never explained with such lucidity
and easy-to-follow guidelines. You have a real knack for putting it all
together in a way that convinces and motivates people." - David
Graham
"I love your book! It's as classy and interesting and
enjoyable as the film! I am already within 7 pounds of my weight goal
and I'm not counting portions, calories or anything else. Thank
you!" - Chris Bekart
"What a 'Wake Up' call! This book and DVD set is much more
than an informative diet for health conscious people. It is truly a
compelling, insightful, common sense approach to addressing the maladies
and ailments that so many people suffer from today. This honest look at
the faults of the (historic...hysteric?) standard American diet will
definitely get your attention. The 'Eating' DVD is a powerful
statement against the way that most of us think about the food we eat.
How can a society be so dumb about what we are doing to our bodies? I
exercise and try to watch my weight, but I have really been missing the
'big picture'. This program puts it into proper perspective.
Check it out! The answer is simple and has been right in front of us
forever--history and facts are difficult to ignore. I think this program
takes up where Dean Ornish left off.
"If you are tired of the 'band aid' approach to symptoms,
leery about taking more medication, concerned about what is actually
going into your body, and don't understand why medical research or
the government can't seem to come up with solutions: then you need
to view this film, read the book and take control of your future. Thank
you Mike Anderson for opening my eyes--I think I get it now! " -
Jill Lewis
"I can't say enough good things about this book and DVD!
It's opened my eyes and makes so much common sense. The name may
sound like a fad but it is the opposite of a fad diet. Plus it works!!!
I'm losing weight, feel great and now have the knowledge that gives
me the power to never go back to my unhealthy eating lifestyle." -
Monica Ames
"The RAVE Diet is provocative, brilliant and precisely
what our society needs to read in order to ameliorate the
current state of health we are in." - Julieanna
Hever, M.S., R.D.
What critics are saying about the films"Rivet yourself to your chair and watch Eating, a mind-blowing
video experience that will forever change the way you think about
food."
- Joel Fuhrman, M.D., author of Eat To Live
"Eating is a brilliant program. It provides an easy and
engaging path to health through good food. I highly recommend
it."
- Neal Barnard, M.D., author of Breaking the Food Seduction
"I want both to congratulate and to thank you. You've
done us all a major service."
- John Robbins, author of Diet for a New America
"A professionally executed, powerful and moving film. It should
be shown to children. They have so much to gain."
- Reuben Allen, Vegetarians In Paradise Magazine
"The best tape on the subject I have ever seen."
- Hesh Goldstein, Health Talk Radio
"A compelling and often shocking look at the standard American
diet. Asserts that following federal nutrition guidelines can kill you."
- American Library Association
"I'm in full agreement with your points and give my
endorsement. I was pleased that you identified USDA price supports as a
major cause of disease in the US."
- William Harris, M.D., author of numerous books and articles
What viewers are saying about the films
"I spent nearly 20 years in television and radio as a news
anchor, but never in my entire professional career have I witnessed
anything like 'Eating'. I am still dizzy, still shaking, still
stunned, unable to digest what I saw and felt. What you have shown about
the food industry really amounts to crimes against humanity. Without a
doubt, this is the most powerful and disturbing video that I have ever
seen; it is a magnificent piece of journalism, worthy of a Nobel Prize
because you have rendered a great service to mankind."
"Although I had heard much of the contents many times before,
nothing ever made an impact as this did. I was stunned. There are no
words to express how I felt. A great spiritual teacher said we cannot
grow unless we are willing to be embarrassed when our ignorance is
revealed, and to sincerely regret past ways of thinking. At 63, I suffer
from the typical ailments you mentioned and look forward to changing my
diet. Thank you so much for being an instrument of such
goodness."
"We were overwhelmed by this beautiful, comprehensive piece of
work. Thank you for creating such a wonderful gift for humanity.
Sometimes I get so discouraged at the lack of interest people show
toward not only themselves but also their loved ones. Then along comes
someone like you sharing wondrous gifts."
"Just want to thank you again for opening my eyes and educating
me on things that should have been obvious. Watched the video again last
night with my husband, it had even more impact. He did not want to watch
it. He agreed to 20 minutes and then he could not turn it off. He was so
surprised on how informative it was--he watched the entire video very
intently and wants to change his way of eating. He is a southern cracker
and was raised on barbecue so I was very surprised it affected him so.
Can't wait to see how good we are both going to feel in a few
weeks."
"It is the clearest, most powerful and compelling presentation
in the Western world about the state of our health and food
industries."
"Your film is a beacon in the darkness of illness."
"I have to say that your video blew me away, even though I'm
already extremely familiar with the subject matter. I was struck by the
clarity and simplicity with which you explained the various concepts,
and I learned quite a few new facts. I just kept thinking about how much
I want my relatives to see it."
"Never in recent years have I been presented with information
that I had absolutely no prior knowledge of, that has such tremendous
potential to impact our health and the health of our planet."
"With deep, profound gratitude in all aspects of the word. You
deserve a Nobel Prize. Thank you, thank you and thank you!"
"I have just watched 'Eating' for the second time. What
a powerful thing you have done! I am deeply sobered, powerfully moved,
and most importantly, clearer still about so many things. Thank
you."
"I just saw the best documentary (Healing Cancer) I
have ever seen and would like to congratulate you on this
monumental achievement!" Jeffrey Mueller, M.D.
"What an Eye-Opener! Thank you, Mike Anderson! The
truth is not usually accepted by the masses until it's too
late. What incredible information this DVD holds regarding
animal protein and cancer. We're former body builders and
had relied on tons of animal and whey proteins. We wish we
hadn't waited until our 50's to get this information. We
made a total turnaround (cold turkey) in our diets since
viewing it and our bodies have been thanking us ever
since. We lost weight and improved our skin tone and
energy levels. The most significant change occurred in our
teenage daughter...she no longer needs supplements to
control her severe hypoglycemia! PLEASE buy this DVD for
your health's sake before it really becomes too late."
