Master Your Metabolism: The All-Natural (All-Herbal) Way to Lose Weight

The concept of mastering metabolic issues by incorporating flower remedies and aromatherapy was interesting to me. Unfortunately, this book only delivered a restricted vegetarian program. This is not to say that aromatherapy and flower remedies are not addressed. They are in a term paperish manner. The properties of the assorted herbs and spices are presented inblocks--distracting and annoying. There is no central list of the properties say of each of the flower remedies (this book focuses primarily on Bach) or herbs. Directions for use are skimpy at best. There are sections on juicing, recipes and the author's suggested program. I was disappointed in this book. Granted, each of these areas, flower remedies, aromatherapy,juicing, etc, have warranted books of their own. I had hoped this would be a manualthat distilled the information succinctly and outlined a doable program for use. Exercise is barely addressed and the recipes are unappealing. for people who have busy lives, challenging careers or active lifestyles will have neither the time nor the incliniation to iimplement this time. After a hard days work, a grilled tofu sandwich, even if served with onions and peppers is not going to cut it. This book provides some very basic information. People may find it valuable as a starting point. However,overall there is neither the depth or the organization necessary to make it my go to manual. The plan has no options for non-vegetarians and the recipes are one note and uninteresting. There are tons of vegetarian cookbooks with appealing, enjoyable recipes. While inclusion of different modalities is appreciated, this book ultimately presents nothing more than a strict vegetarian diet.
