Great book on nutrition and the PD patient., Feb 23 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Eat Well, Stay Well With Parkinson's Disease: A Nutrition Handbook for People With Parkinson's (Plastic Comb)
One of the most enlightening books I've read regarding Parkinson's Disease. Focusing on nutrition and what your body is going through with PD, it is a primer for what to watch out for, how to deal with dietary challenges, and what to expect. This book will help you make a nutritional game plan, and prepare a pre-emptive strike against most of the common surprises PD throws at you. I don't suffer from PD - I'm a family member. It was great for me and great for my family PD-er. I recommend this book to everyone interested in living better with Parkinson's.

A GODSEND, April 4 2002
By Colin Campbell - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Eat Well, Stay Well With Parkinson's Disease: A Nutrition Handbook for People With Parkinson's (Plastic Comb)
This book has proven a godsend for my mom (who suffers from Parkinsons) and myself. The information is sound, easy to follow, and presented with ample background. I like the writer's approach to nutrition (i.e., good flavor is essential). Her knowledge of Parkinsons is impressive. I can't begin to tell you how many questions it answers. I consider this book an essential part of my mom's medical "team."

DO NOT PAY 5 TIMES over the Author's price for this book, Sep 21 2007

This review is from: Eat Well, Stay Well With Parkinson's Disease: A Nutrition Handbook for People With Parkinson's (Plastic Comb)
This is an excellent book and I highly recommend it, WITH 1 CAVEAT: ALL of the "Used and New" sellers are charging about 5 TIMES OVER what the author, Kathrynne Holden, asks for this SAME BOOK on her own web site. SAVE YOUR MONEY and visit www.nutritionyoucanlivewith.com OR just Google "Kathrynne Holden" and save TONS of money if you decide to purchase this exzcellent book.
