5.0 out of 5 stars LANDMARK BOOK---A MUST READ, Oct 17 2001
By andrew i. chaplowitz "arame29" (springfield, nj United States) - See all my reviews
This book should be required reading in every high school health class. Why? For way too long, even those who are health conscious with the best intentions have made critical mistakes in choosing our fats and oils. For example, for years I purchased unrefined oils of "macrobiotic quality", packaged in a clear bottle and used them at high heat...a critical mistake! Read this book and find out why!!

Even worse are those who are consuming fats that are "illness by prescription"--and don't know it. Learn the truth, corroborated with good science, get informed, use the information.

This book is THE quintessential one on making one of the most vital decisions in your daily cuisine. Erasmus has a gift of taking the complex and making it an easy read. More importantly, one can, after reading this book, use the information to reach for your maximum health potential.

If you have a desire to be as healthy as your genetics will allow, then do not skip this book---it is as critical as anything you do, including check-ups and medical tests.

I feel most fortunate I got my hands on it before I did more damage. I wish it were published at the beginning of the century. Many of the degenerative diseases would have been greatly diminished.

Finally, to his credit, Erasmus does not use the book to promote his propietary oil, Udo's Choice, manufactured by the top of the line Flora Company. Rather, he gives you the information to decide how to purchase the best oils

5.0 out of 5 stars The Fat Bible, Jan 4 2004
By Robin Rheaume (Singapore) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This is a landmark work in the study of fat. Yes it is a "relatively" easy read given that the author starts you off on a crash course in organic chemistry. Nevertheless it is rather heavy going in places and I believe it is more useful as a reference book than as a cover to cover health read. This is a book you will want to keep handy as you will refer to it again and again.

It is true that Erasmus does include a push for his own oil product. It is, however, well known that his involvement in EFA oil production came AFTER the bulk of his studies and research ie the product is in response to an exposed need. This book was certainly not written to sell his oil. The references to his own product are few.

This is a well written, well organised, objective text.

5.0 out of 5 stars Arm Yourself With Knowledge, Nov 5 2003
I've been reading about Dr. Budwig's research on the role of fats in the body and found this book to be a wonderful complement to that information. Mr. Erasmus' book explains the difference between fats and the methods used to obtain them (I learned what "expeller pressed" means) and how the fats industry makes its money by manipulating natural fats to prolong their shelf lives--processes that are not very conducive to anyone's health, by the way. What I most liked about Mr. Erasmus' book, however, was the fact that, although he does speak about his own oil blend, he encourages people to read and think for themselves, which is what it's all about. This book is not the 'definitive' book on the subject, but it is written in such a way as to be extremely helpful in deciphering all the jargon. This book is a wonderful tool, and I highly recommend its use as such.
