BOOK WAS VERY HELPFUL
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I read this book and put the plan to work and lost 9 lbs in 3 wks. My doctor asked what I did, and I told her about this book and she said - GOOD - keep doing it-it is working.
Lost 40 pounds
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
Lost 40 pounds in one month to requalify on my Navy physical in 1982 on the Pritikin diet. I couldn't run a city block before starting it. By week 3 I was running 5 miles. Twice each year I went on the diet during my stint in the Navy to complete the physical readiness tests. At age 44 I ran the mile and a half in 7:54 and max'd out on the PRT. I had trained on the diet for 2 weeks.
It really works!

I followed the recommended diet for Maximum Weight Loss plan and lost 10 lbs in 7 weeks. My cholesterol level dropped from 220 to 156 in that time also. I continued to follow the maintenance plan for over a year and kept the weight off. I just had a baby and plan to follow the plan again to get back to my goal weight!
The best diet/health book ever written
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
While it is not the most popular, The Pritikin Program will help anyone lose weight quickly while maintaining the proper nutritional balance. Especially good for those people interested in losing body fat. I managed to get down to 3% body fat and 130 Cholesterol level while following Pritikin. While you need not follow the program in its entirety, it is an especially useful guide to helping the dieter get more fit while feeling better.
the definitive book about nutrition, way ahead of his time
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
Nathan was so far ahead of his time, people actually scoffed at his ideas about the link between nutrition and heart disease. Now we know much more than he did, but this basic overview makes more sense than any other book I have read on the subject.
