It is best to get your nutrition information from a qualified registered dietitian nutritionist.
O'Connor shows her expertise and professionalism with the presentation of The Alkaline Diet Guide in a manner that presents the evidence, the background, and ultimately a nutrition concept that is attainable and has stood the test of time. Research continues to support that the best eating patterns are those that are plant based with less added fats, sugars, and less healthful components. I do not recommend interpretations of "diets" that are based on marketing of hype and unsubstantiated concepts so I appreciate how the author gave a background of the theory of the alkaline diet while promoting the concepts that are supported by science which is a plant based varied diet that we can enjoy and sustain. I am looking forward to trying some recipes.

Everything you wanted to know about an alkaline diet, but were afraid to ask
Lauren does a phenomenal job of tackling the tricky topic of alkaline diets. I appreciated her honesty, fairness, and scientifically backed assessment of what alkaline diets are and what they are not. She clearly points out to the reader that there is no conclusive scientific evidence alkaline diets work but it can still be a healthy diet option since it focuses on nutrient-dense foods. Her three week menu plan is a great guide for anyone getting started on trying this way of eating out. The recipes are also top-notch!! A couple I particularly have like are both the sweet potato and carrot medallions and the zucchini, bell pepper, and basil soup - outstanding! Get your copy today!

Informative but needs improvement on preparing the reader for an accurate grocery list!
The book is informative. The recipes seem good but I would have liked the writer to prepare the grocery list more accurately. She doesn't list all the things you need for the recipes so that was frustrating because I went grocery shopping based on the list provided.

Health is a journey and this book offers great inspirational recipes
After a conversation with my dentist about my teeth sensitivity (I had it for years), he recommended me to consume a bit more Alkaline-producing foods. I found Lauren’s book and got right into it, taking action and following the meal plans. She has a great collection of recipes for all meals of the day. Recommended book for anyone interested to embrace whole food nutrition and has no idea how to start.

No pictures
Dislike that the book does not have any pictures. I did not seen any recipes that were all that great. However , the steps are simple and easy. I only found 2 recipes that I liked .

Essential info in one well organized place.
This book has a list of what food/stuff to get and where to keep it. That's gold for people like me. The recipes look great, I went straight for the PB Frosting and ate it from the jar I put it in. Why waste a carb on a piece of toast? And there is a whole ratings chart section so you can keep an eye on how acidic the foods you're choosing are! This book is a good size for traveling for those of us who move around a lot. Brilliant! The info I need all in one place. Thank you Lauren O'Connor!

Well Researched! Love these recipes
The Healthy Alkaline Diet Guide is extremely well-written and informative. It is apparent the author really did her research to provide us with the truth about why the alkaline diet REALLY works. It's a plus that these recipes are not only well thought out, but delicious! I am looking forward to hearing more from Lauren O'Connor on her future projects (and trying more of her recipes!)
