Super Immunity by Joel Fuhrman

Super Immunity by Joel Fuhrman

This was an interesting book although I can't say that I learned anything new or that I believe all his dietary claims. 

Basically he is saying eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains,  and nuts. Stop eating junk, processed anything, and eat much less eat.  Exercise.  Nothing new there. 

I am skeptical of the studies that he cites primarily because I know how easy it is to skew results to show just about anything you want it to show. Will you be healthier following his eating suggestions--sure. But I'm not so sure you can prevent or cure everything from colds and flu to cancer.

The recipes at the back of the book sound really awful.
