Em A Alimentação Cura Tudo, o Dr. Oz sintetiza anos de pesquisa e de prática clínica. Fala com os maiores cientistas do mundo, mas também com atletas e celebridades que se curaram com o poder dos alimentos. E apresenta aqui os principais remédios (comprovados cientificamente) para uma série de problemas, desde o excesso de peso ao stress, passando pelo… mau humor (as pipocas ajudam, e fruta com manteiga de amendoim também).
Mehmet Cengiz Oz, best known as Dr. Oz, is a Turkish-American cardiothoracic surgeon, author, and host and commentator for the syndicated daily television program focusing on medical issues/personal health, The Dr. Oz Show.
Oz first appeared on the The Oprah Winfrey Show in 2004, and later on Larry King Live and other TV programs. In 2009, Winfrey's Harpo Productions and Sony Pictures launched The Dr. Oz Show.
He’s gotten criticism for his TV show, but Dr. Oz’s book is really well-written and user-friendly (compared to the other new food book by Dr. Joel Fuhrman, Food Genocide, whose title says it all). There are specific guidelines as to which foods, including seeds and nuts, to incorporate into the diet to address specific health conditions. The book also includes recipes which actually look achievable, a 21 day quick start plan, restaurant ordering suggestions, and appetizing color photos. Recommended to anyone who is concerned about the impact of diet on health.
Šią knygą neabejotinai kiekvienas privalo turėti savo namuose! 😉 Ji puiki! Eilinį kartą labai gaila, kad sveikos mitybos pagrindų nemoko mokykloje. Tikėtina, kad daktarai nebeturėtų ką veikti, tačiau žmonės būtų sveikesni ir laimingesni.
Būtinai išbandysiu 21 dienos mitybos planą - dėl tobulai paprastų produktų ir aiškiai aprašytų receptų. Vien produktų sąrašas ko vertas! 👏😁 Ir jau dabar žinau, kad šį knyga taps geru spyriu į šikną, siekiant maitintis sveikiau 🤗
So much good information about how the body and its different organs/parts work. I feel like I learned a lot and it made me want to take better care of myself. I don't feel like this book is a "diet" book, but more of a life style book. The foods and recipes are REAL foods not low fat, non-fat, fake, chemically foods a lot of "diet" books have. A good read if you are interested in health.
Oh look at me! Says Dr Oz. I snack on mulberries, eat fish rich in Omega-3s served with quinoa for dinner, and consume exactly 1 oz. of 85% cacoa dark chocolate when my sweet tooth strikes.
No, seriously. He has solid advice. Some great tips, tricks, and simple recipes. Building a new and improved Kroger Click List this evening!
Well, sorta read it. Mostly preaching to the choir since I've been mostly vegan for more than ten years. (I define any birthday cake as vegan; good thing since my BD was last Monday and I've had cupcakes and an official BD cake and more to come on Wednesday with still another celebration.)
Big, heavy book with nearly endless pictures of healthy food in charming glossy illustrations. Bunch of recipes at the end.
One thing that caught my eye was the recommendation to fast for 12 hours most days. My racquetball partner has been mentioning that almost weekly for quite a while. I do it sometimes, but I'm going to practice it a bit more faithfully. She says it's not only good for the body, but especially for the brain.
Why not? I always wonder about those who, once they are diagnosed with some awful disease, suddenly decide to eat right, to exercise, to sleep well. My philosophy is: Why wait?????
This t book has a lot of good information. I learned a lot reading it. I will definitely use some of the recipes. Some of the recommendations seem a little intimidating though. I don't think I will ever substitute a tofu steak for a real steak. Other than that I'm glad I really took the time and read this book and I will definitely refer to it in the future.
I loved everything about this book. I found it to be very well-written with lots of pictures, recipes, stories, and facts about the American diet and how to make changes in order to improve your health. There is a 21-day menu plan included that can help you achieve your goals and become adjusted to a new style of eating as well as a 3-Day Fix It Cleanse. There are so many great ideas and information packed into this beautiful book. I especially enjoyed reading about Dr. Oz's eating habits when he went to medical school and how his wife Lisa helped him become a healthier person. I can't wait to try Lisa's Tide-you-over Veggie Broth. I learned a lot and plan to incorporate much of the advice into my own life. Very pleasantly surprised with this book!!
Not much here. A lot of recycled and somewhat dated ideas on nutrition and health. Not bad if you have no background, but there is nothing new here for the health conscious.
A method for rebooting your nutrition through a 21-Day plan followed by many ideas for developing an on-going nutritional plan for yourself. Much of the plan involves eating more veggies, avoiding sugar, cooking your own food, and adding flavours through herbs and spices. It’s not a standard “diet”: it’s about changing your own relationship with food. There are lots of great recipes and a few not so good. There’s also a lot of food preparation tips. There are short chapters on “food fixes” for different issues like fatigue, the heart, and weight loss which were all a good read. Whether studies quoted are the most relevant, I’m not sure but it’s not about any specific pills or herbs - it’s about real food. There’s also a 3-Day Cleanse with smaller meals. If you like Dr. Oz and are ready to make a change towards healthy eating, I highly recommend this book.
It’s been a fabulous starting point for me. I completed the 3-Day Cleanse followed by the 21-Day Plan paired with a daily walk and some daily exercise. I’ve lost weight and I feel trimmer. I’ve moved on to new cookbooks and new foods. I feel set for a new healthier life.
If you were going to go with the 21-Day Plan, I’d recommend: reading the book first; buying the foods needed; having lots of measuring spoons and measuring cups on hand; having some extra time to spend on food prep; and if possible have anyone in your household onboard and if you live alone, trying to pair up with someone to share the planning, shopping, prepping, cooking, clean-up and success.

This is my favorite Dr Oz book so far... it has a wealth of information used to help combat aging and just become more healthy. Gives you the correlation on LDL and cholesterol levels in a basic approach. Array of information that is broken down in an easy to understand way.
What did I like? I tried three of the recipes already and they were amazing! The quinoa stuff tomatoes....amazing! Eggs with black beans for breakfast... who knew how full I’d feel, and I have never had black beans for breakfast. Then I tried the fruit and yogurt mix which turned out great.
Would I recommend or buy? I bought a copy and I thought it was worth the money. Dr Oz books are hit and miss but this one for me was a hit. Great information and tips.
Pretty good book. Lots of information presented in an easily understood manner with a sprinkling of humor. Looks promising. The diet consists of real food without any chemical substitutions. I would have preferred food swaps or substitutions for foods I don't like instead of a "try it you might like it" since I'm fairly adventurous when it comes to food. However there are those things I simply don't like such as salmon (unless it's smoked which isn't so healthy), olives and mushrooms. There are foods I tolerate in name of healthy eating such as kale and others I won't even taste. That said this is a doable diet for the short term. Not so much for the long term.
The title is a bit misleading since there is no radical solution to healthy eating offered in this book. Instead Dr. Oz promotes a daily diet high in fruits, veggies, protein and healthy fats, with moderate amounts of good carbs and red meat and almost no sugar. He includes a 21-day meal plan to jump start your healthy eating habits.
It's mostly common sense, but he's like a cheerleader, convincing you that you can do it. I appreciated many of his suggestions and copied down several recipes to try.
The author goes through great lengths to convince the reader that a mostly plant-based diet will have dramatically positive effects. This is good news as so many new studies are revealing just that. What is a bit confusing is that Dr. Oz reiterates over and over how beneficial a plant-based diet is and then in almost the same sentence mentiones putting chicken on top of your salad or sandwhich. In so doing he makes no sense and contradicts himself. Although overall the importance of the plant-based diet probably still comes across to the reader.
great informative reference that lists specific foods for specific targets-- better memory, better heart health, better moods, weight loss, etc. written in a warm, congenial manner that truly fits the Oprah crowd that Columbia University professor Dr Mehmet Oz first became popular in. it made me realize how neglectful i'd been of healthy eating and its preeminence for first-rate functioning in day-to-day life.
A helpful resources to learn about various foods and how they can help the body. It is a great tool if you have particular health needs you want to address, as he breaks it down into specific goals you may want to reach with the foods you eat. I particularly liked the recipes he supplied, which can be easily used to alter your diet. I generally have mixed feelings about Oz, which is why I rated it 4/5 stars.
This book contains a lot of good information as well as some common sense. Eating for health and energy is something that more people need to focus on rather than just hunger. Oftentimes eating can assist in avoiding getting sick and assisting in the pains of aging. The idea that fueling the body is very similar to fueling a vehicle what you put in is what you get out. Put in good ingredients get energy and health. Put in sugar and bad fats get fatigue and suboptimal performance.
Nothing earth-shaking here. It's fairly basic nutrition guidance. It's nice to have reminders for common-sense eating practices, though. I downloaded it on my Nook so the recipes are difficult to access. If you think you might want to try the recipes, about half the book, you probably should buy a hard copy of the book.
This book is ok - it does have a lot of information but many of the items he suggests to use in the receipts are expensive when on a budget. Also next to impossible to purchase in rural areas. I like Dr Oz but this was a disappointment for me. So sorry Dr Oz!
this is a great book for someone that wants to nourish themselves in a more natural way.. those that want to heal their body thru food.. the recipes in the back are wonderful.. so much interesting facts about food, drink, nutrients, vitamins.. it's a permanent book on my shelf & i reference it often..
Just the book I was looking for. I am halfway through the 21 day plan and loving all of it. So easy and fulfilling, trying new foods and eating more healthily. Losing weight is a bonus! This information is something I can live by.
Maybe stuff you already know, but way better written than other books saying the same thing. Plus hearing it read by the author makes all the difference. I lost 20 pounds by following one of his past books, so I trust Dr. Oz. His advice just makes sense.
Nothing new here. Most of the recipes I already know or make a little differently. Found a few new salad dressing recipes and another smoothie recipe but other than that it isn't anything new. Glad I didn't buy this book.
Very good book about various health issues. Dr. Oz includes stories from his TV show. His suggestions are sensible ones to help one solve various issues like weight loss, heart and stomach problems. The book includes a 21 day diet plan with recipes of healthy foods.
Lots of good info I'd like to try. I have to admit that I did not read this one cover to cover because of the enormous amount of info, and perhaps if I had I might have rated it higher. Looking forward to trying some of Dr. Oz's suggested recipes though!
