About this product

When Mehmet O or any of New York's leading doctors have a patient whose life depends on losing weight, they call on Joel Fuhrman, M.D. In Eat to Live, Dr. Fuhrman offers his healthy, effective, and scientifically proven plan for shedding radical amounts of weight quickly, and keeping it off. Losing weight under Dr. Fuhrman's plan is not about will power, it is about knowledge. The key to this revolutionary diet is the idea of nutrient density, as expressed by the simple formula, Health = Nutrients/Calories. When the ratio of nutrients to calories is high, fat melts away and health is restored. Losing 20 pounds in two to three weeks is just the beginning. The more high-nutrient food Dr. Fuhrman's patients consume, the more they are satisfied with fewer calories, and the less they crave fat and high-calorie foods. Designed for people who must lose 50 pounds or more in a hurry, Eat to Live works for every dieter, even those who want to lose as little as 10 pounds quickly. No willpower required—just knowledge!

Editor's Take

Amazon reviewers say this book is practical, informative, and easy to follow, with many readers reporting weight loss, better health, and fewer cravings after using the plan. Some Amazon reviewers also say it is detailed and evidence-based, while a smaller group feels it is too rigid or not worth the price.

On Goodreads, readers are split but generally positive, with many praising the science-backed ideas and nutrient-density focus, while some criticize the tone or length. One review blog described it as a strong, well-researched read, and a Reddit discussion raised questions about Fuhrman’s credibility and some of his more controversial ideas.

Overall, the main pattern across sources is that fans value the book’s clear structure and health results, while skeptics push back on how strict or doctrinaire the approach can feel.
