Nope.
I mean, some of his concepts are for sure correct, but in one paragraph he says the biggest mistake is skipping breakfast, and the next he says to never eat when you're not hungry. I don't eat when I'm not hungry, and that's why I won't eat breakfast.
It's just the same old incorrect advice, but in a new dress.

The book is filled with useless paragraphs. The parts that have value aren’t elaborated on enough to have any value.

Nothing new or exciting

Diet culture book. Honestly thought it would be more about mindfulness within your body, like mentally. That’s what I get for selecting a book at random.

Mind your Body is a very organized book containing principals and ideas that can be applied to any goal, not just weight loss. The advice isn't overly unique but the structure and the research is outstanding.
