A great book to recommend to anyone who could use more energy!5
I purchased this book for my wife who has been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia after a co-worker recommended it. After making some changes to our food and what we eat, we are noticing a dramatic boost in energy and a reduction in aches and pains and sniffs and sneezes. I am enjoying eating real tasty food again since my wife has been using the recipes. You don't have to have fibromyalgia to benefit from this book.

Foods that Help Win the Battle Against Fibromyalgia5
This book is an eye opener. More like deer in the headlights shock...to find out that all the chemicals in processed foods and possibly the insecticides used in our produce can slowly be poisoning our systems is a real shocker for me! I've wondered what all the fuss is about for "organic" foods. Now I know. My mother had fibro and now all my brothers and sisters and myself also have fibromyalgia! I believe we will be eating more organic foods. The severe pain we suffer with throughout our entire bodies has got to stop! Why aren't the produce farmers listening? This is definitely a book everyone with fibro should read. A must for your library!

Great Source for All5
I read this book almost from cover to cover. Even though I do not personally have fibromyalgia, I found it to be most helpful. As a group fitness instructor, I have had a few participants who were dealing with this syndrome. I now have a better understanding of what they are dealing with as well as what they can do to ease the symptoms and eventually be completely free of them.

This book is written in such a way that everyone on all levels can understand and immediately, apply it to their lives and refer back to again and again. I'm looking forward to trying some of the recipes Dr. Rawlings offers, and being the starter cook that I am, the smoothie recipes are a great starting point.

Whether you have sought after books relating to Fibromyalgia or just happen to stumble upon this one while in search for something else, you will not be disappointed. I highly recommend "Food That Helps Win the Battle against Fibromyalgia" to anyone who is looking for ways to eliminate various body ailments, and specifically, fibromyalgia. The information and recipes provided in this book will help build better health for anyone!
