Many individuals who follow the Nutritarian diet write to Dr. Fuhrman about their success. Keep in mind that results vary from person to person. As always, consult your physician if you have a medical history and/or condition that may warrant individual recommendations.

Jeff's Story

Jeff felt like he was dying from GERD and ailments doctors couldn't cure, he lost 43 pounds and is free of health problems  

At age 45 I got very sick and was bleeding internally from acid reflux (GERD).  The doctors just told me to stop drinking and take Prilosec everyday which stopped my reflux. However, I did not like the side effects.  I was still not feeling well, weighed 204 pounds, was always tired, and had asthma, allergies, skin rashes, high blood pressure (145/90), high white blood cell count and foggy thinking.  I hit rock bottom and thought I was dying. I joined a gym and worked out three to five days a week for three years, but it did very little to improve my health, so I needed to find another answer.

I found drfuhrman.com and bought Eat For Health. In eight months I lost 42 pounds and now weigh 162 pounds.  I no longer take Prilosec or use asthma inhalers, blood pressure 108/68, no allergies, no skin rashes and think clearly. I also noticed my toe nails went from looking like ruffle potato chips to nice clean and ruffle free.  Now when I go to the gym the 25 to 30 year old trainers are asking me questions.  I can run ten to twelve miles and lift weights for one hour, all in the same workout.  At age 49, my energy level has skyrocketed and I can keep up with my twelve year old son.  Thanks Dr. Fuhrman, you saved my life and I will follow the Nutritarian plan for life.
