Marsha,
An informative and clearly written book on how we are inadvertently and lethally overburdening our metabolism with uric acid by our overconsumption of certain foods。 Perlmutter covered many of the same issues in his previous books, Grain Brain and Brain Wash although the focus on this guide is slightly different。 It's an easy book to read and it's good to be aware of the foods and habits that lead to an overload of uric acid and how slight modifications can make a huge difference in long term he An informative and clearly written book on how we are inadvertently and lethally overburdening our metabolism with uric acid by our overconsumption of certain foods。 Perlmutter covered many of the same issues in his previous books, Grain Brain and Brain Wash although the focus on this guide is slightly different。 It's an easy book to read and it's good to be aware of the foods and habits that lead to an overload of uric acid and how slight modifications can make a huge difference in long term health。 Half the book is recipes and sample meals, and this will appeal to many readers。 He's also included a hefty list of his own references, which I very much appreciate。 There is no such thing as a magic pill but the suggestions in this book are sound and sensible for anyone who is wanting to be proactive about long term health, both physical and mental。#netgalley 。。。more
Wendy W。,
Drop Acid by David Perlmutter is a fascinating look into the effects of diet, specifically excess uric acid has on the human body。 The book is full of scientific references but, it is told in a conversational tone that is easy to understand。 The book is told in two parts。 The first part gives you all the scientific data that supports the role uric acid plays in human metabolism。 The second part is all about how to lower uric acid using the author’s LUV (Lower Uric Values) diet and gives the read Drop Acid by David Perlmutter is a fascinating look into the effects of diet, specifically excess uric acid has on the human body。 The book is full of scientific references but, it is told in a conversational tone that is easy to understand。 The book is told in two parts。 The first part gives you all the scientific data that supports the role uric acid plays in human metabolism。 The second part is all about how to lower uric acid using the author’s LUV (Lower Uric Values) diet and gives the reader a three-week diet plan as well as outlying the foods to avoid, and the foods that help lower uric acid levels。 I found this book gives the reader a good scientific background of the role of uric acid, told in a way that most readers can understand。 And the book gives a good solid way for readers to lower uric acid levels using diet and supplements。 This review is based on the book and the way it is laid out and told。 I did not try the LUV diet, so I cannot give a first-hand account of how it works。 I recommend this book to anyone who wants to try to understand the effects of uric acid on the body。 I received a complimentary copy of this book。 The opinions expressed in this review are completely my own。 。。。more
