"Having had the privilege, for the past decade, of working with people suffering from eating disorders, it is a particular simcha for me to see that David Zulberg has put out a monumental work entitled The Life-Transforming Diet. I am confident that this book will be received and will replace secular books of this genre. All who read it fulfill the mitzvah, "You shall greatly beware of your souls." -Rabbi Dovid Goldwasser, Author, lecturer and eating disorders counselor
" David Zulberg has taken Maimonides' instructions for proper nutrition, accompanied by other suggestions for proper living, and made them easily understood . It is a major contribution to a field where there is so much controversy and confusion." - Rabbi Abraham J. Twerski, M.D., director of Gateway Rehabilitation Center, Aliquippa, PA
"This book provides both the rationale and the practical advice needed to begin and maintain a sensible nutritional program to optimize weight control and general health. Highly recommended." - Rabbi Akiva Tatz, M.D., well-known lecturer and author
"The Life-Transforming Diet has presented a program based on Maimonides' teachings on health [which] addresses dietary, exercise and behavioral aspects of eating. The importance of gradual and sustained changes is emphasized in this book". - Dr. Charlene Wolberg, medical director of Linksfield Med-Clinic, South Africa
"This book goes back to the building blocks of exercise and diet. It makes it easy for everyone. Now you can't say I don't have time, because the Life-Transforming Diet teaches how a little goes a long way." - Natasha Louw, Hons., biokineticist, qualified health and exercise expert
If you think dieting just isn't for you, read what people on the Life-Transforming Diet used to say, and are saying now:
"Although I'm an avid reader of diet books, I myself have never lost weight permanently... "After losing and regaining thousands of pounds, I finally found an answer to my prayers: a way of life that is healthy, spiritual, fulfilling, and that facilitates weight loss."
"I feel tired a lot of the time, and my energy levels are low.... "Since I have been on this program I have seen a ajor change in my general mood and emotional reactions. I am much more patient and much less impulsive."
"I can't sustain complicated and time-consuming exercise workouts... "The basic, well-rounded Life-Transforming exercise program is not about complexity but rather simplicity and practicality."
"Each diet I've been on has had its positive aspects, but ultimately I felt bored and deprived by their monotonous repetitiveness... "On the Life-Transforming Diet, I am able to customize my own program to suit my schedule and interests exactly the way I like it."
"It's impossible for Shabbos observers to be on a diet... "The best part for me is that I don't dread Shabbos meals."
