The RAVE Diet & Lifestyle Book + 'Eating' DVD

by Mike Anderson

   The RAVE Diet & Lifestyle book is intended to accompany the film, Eating. Some people think they can follow the basic rules of the RAVE acronym and do the diet. This is far from the truth and is a mistake because you will not achieve the results you are looking for by just following the acronym rules. The full RAVE Diet contains many additional rules and details which can only be explained in a book, The book not only provides the details of the diet, but explains the reasons behind the RAVE Diet, with a special emphasis on weight loss and the relationship between diet and our major diseases. It is not only informative and easy to read, but entertaining and inspirational. It is a how-to-book with practical tips and suggestions and 186 recipes so you can easily make the RAVE Diet your everyday diet. And the simple Rules of Meal Preparation will show you how to prepare the meals you like quickly without ever looking at a recipe. In combination with the film, you will find this to be the most powerful and effective diet package on the market.

   What is the RAVE Diet? It is an old-fashioned, plant-based, whole foods diet based exclusively on whole fruits, whole vegetables and whole grains and offers literally thousands of food choices. It is derived from very simple dietary rules doctors use to successfully treat and reverse a wide range of diseases, particularly our number one killer, cardiovascular disease. In fact, it is endorsed by doctors from The Cleveland Clinic Foundation, who are interviewed in the DVD, one of whom reversed severe heart disease by following The RAVE Diet.

    The RAVE Diet is flexible and can accommodate a wide variety of individual tastes and busy lifestyles. In fact, it's so flexible that you can easily substitute your favorite whole foods in the recipes.The book also has a transition plan so you can move to the RAVE Diet gradually and tailor it to your individual preferences. Here are some of the foods you'll be Raving about.
   The RAVE Diet has been used not only to lose weight, but to reverse heart disease (the only scientifically proven diet to do that) and prevent - if not reverse - a wide range of other diseases while healing your entire body. Simply put, it's the best health insurance money can't buy.

   If you've tried other diets and failed, you've come to the right place. The award-winning DVD, Eating Plus, is designed not only to inform you, but to motivate you - and not just for a few months or years, but for the rest of your life. The book fills in the gaps and tells you exactly how to do it. There are no hidden agendas or costs. And if you're looking to lose weight, the only real expense may be the cost of a new wardrobe!
