Diet is a four-letter word that has scared and confused people for centuries, but readers don't have to fret with Dr. Bravata's approach to what it means to live well. This nonfiction work is a compilation of Bravata's essays, philosophical thoughts, and poems to help not only the reader get a healthier mind and body but also a healthier spirit. It's a transformative journey to take back its readers' lives. The author offers an interesting take on our current health care system, highlighting how diet and self-help books often focus on the don'ts and aren't exactly uplifting. In contrast, Bravata's approach is a self-directed guide, where he provides practical and useful tools to help the reader make the best choices for their lives.
This guide is based on Christian ideals because, as Bravata explains early on, it's his faith that he found to be a "tried and true source of strength and stability" in his life. Some of the topics discussed include the human population's identity crisis and how the digital world is one of the bigger factors, how people can take back control of their minds by limiting who and what they spend their time listening to, knowing the foods and substances that are harmful, an explanation of different kinds of vaccines, medicines, etc., and exposing hidden hazards in these medicines and food. The author is correct when he states that this is a lot more than either a self-help or a diet book. Bravata's writing style is clear, concise, and overall engaging. Those seeking a Christian spiritual book to inspire and guide them in finding a new purpose will undoubtedly find the author's work to be beneficial.
