How to Eat, Move, and Be Healthy! (2nd Edition): Your Personalized 4-Step Guide to Looking and Feeling Great from the Inside Out

I love Paul Chek I'm so looking forward to receiving my book.

This book is really well written. It is easy to understand and very helpful. We learn things that we didn't ever think about before. It does not only give you information about nutrition and good health but also shows you how to use this information. I really liked it. It is also used in my nutrition class in college. Wonderful!

Let me first say that much of the information is definitely contained elsewhere, and much of it I felt I already "knew". The author though presents the information in a logically consistent holistic view of one's health; and thereby chances the paradigm by which we view our bodies. It has inspired me to change my food intake and my lifestyle - and that highlights the true value of the book. It doesn't just contain information, but presents it in a manner in which I could process and internalize it. I heartily recommend this book.

This is a great book about diet, exercise and general health. If you want to make changes to your life but aren't sure where to start out, this is definitely the book for you. If you want a solid explanation why you should change, followed up with research, this book is for you. Mr. Chek has taken information about diet, exercise, and mental and physical health from many different sources, including his own personal experiences, and compiled it into this book. The book is easy to read and is also an excellent starting point for anyone interested in improving his or her quality of life. The book covers such a wide variety of topics and everyone will be able to learn something from this book. But in covering so many topics, there is a lack of depth in some areas. Fortunately Mr. Chek sites many references throughout the book, allowing you to dig deeper if they choose. Paul is a big advocate of getting back to the basics. He uses examples of primal man and activities primal man engaged in through out his book. If primal man survived moving and eating a certain way, we should adopt those patterns to our own life. I personally agree with this way of thinking, I'm sure some others will not. The sections on training programs are excellent; my only gripe is the advanced program. Mr. Chek definitely practices what he preaches, but I doubt he got to where he is doing the advanced program presented in this book. I remember seeing pictures of Paul doing a one-arm push up on a Bosu and another of him doing a sit up on a Swiss ball with a 100+ pound dumbbell across his chest. Those sorts of very high level exercises are absent. I'm nit picking with this, so Ill digress. I personally enjoyed the book and have recommended it to many of my friends. This book as something for everyone, especially the person looking for a starting point. If you are serious about making life style changes and want a solid explanation as to why you should or shouldn't change something in your life; get this book. The book is easy to read but application of the topics will take time. Don't expect a magic band-aid. After all, this book it about life style changes and that takes time.

This is the best book on all subjects listed that I have ever found. Not only does it address what is going on in our food chain that needs to be looked at, but it also addresses how to eat in a way that totally works. I lost 55 pounds that were a real problem for me by finding out my metabolic type. Not only did the weight come off but health problems are now non-existant.The exercise programs and stretches in the book are easy to follow and as a massage therapist a great book for clients and chiropractors, in fact any one interested in helping themselves or their health conscious clients.Congradulations Paul for the excellent book.All the best to you.

Paul Chek has managed to answer the numerous questions regarding how to obtain optimal health. We live in a society that overemphasizes the "one size fits all" and "quick fix" attitudes when it comes to health. I am a physical therapist and am tired of seeing fellow healthcare providers apply this philosophy resulting in a population of patients not getting better. What I mean by not getting better is that the symptoms may have improved, but what have we done for their health and vitality. Modern medicine addresses achieving adequate health, but what we all really need is optimal health. It is optimal health that allows us to live to be over 100 years old and experience all that life has to offer. Paul's book is able to explain the fundamental steps of obtaining optimal health for the lay person and health professional alike, using his holistic approach and emphasis on biochemical individuality, which basically explains why other "How to" health, fitness, and diet books do not work for everyone. I HIGHLY recommend anyone who wants to make significant improvements in their health to buy this book.
