The How Not To Die Cookbook: Over 100 Nutrient-Rich Recipes to Help Prevent and Reverse Disease

Teri Kopack: After reading the How Not To Die book, we found this cookbook. The recipes are easy and straight forward— though we do know our way around the kitchen.

Robin L.: The only reason for the low rating is, because each recipe takes a lot of ingredients. I admire the doctor who wrote this cookbook. I have read bits and pieces of his other book, which isn’t a cook book. And he has written several other books. His books are well researched, thoughtful, and well written. My only complaint with this cookbook is that if you are barely scraping by you wouldn’t be able to afford to make the recipes. Because each recipe takes a lot of plant-based ingredients. Plant-based ingredients are VERY EXPENSIVE. Being on a changed lifestyle of plant-based requires discipline, time and money. If you have those three elements, and purchasing a LOT of ingredients to make one dish doesn’t deter you, then you probably would enjoy making the recipes from this book.

Alice P.: This book is just like brand new & I only paid about half the cost of a new one. Shipping was quicker than I expected also. Will definitely buy from this seller again. Very pleased! I’m excited to try the recipes after reading Michael Greger’s other book, “How Not to Die”. He shows you the science proven ways to heal yourself through your diet. It makes so much sense.

Joshwright10: Great recipes, however all of the measurements are in cups. This makes it a little frustrating to use, as I need to convert everything to grams before starting.

Elizabeth H.Elizabeth H.: This is a great little cookbook!! I bought the "How Not to Die" kindle book, and realized I really needed this cookbook to help our family jump start to better eating. I can honestly say every recipe I have tried so far (6 in a little over a week) has been surprisingly delicious and flavorful. The zucchini alfredo was a huge surprise. Though it was coming out a little too nutty with all the cashews, I added some plain old Italian Seasoning blend and the flavor came out amazing. And filling! The black bean burgers were a tad dry but I think one needs to go in not expecting it to taste like a beef hamburger...and approach it just as something totally new. And my 6-yo-pickiest-of-all-kids-her-age, loved them!! She did not like the Stuffed portabellas because she hates mushrooms, but loved the stuffing, so simply scraped it off the caps and viola, ate all of it. Liked the zucchini alfredo but the sauce was too rich after a while. My 10-yo loved the stuffed portabellas but not the zucchini alfredo and ate the burgers but only because I bribed him lol. My husband, well, he loved them all but he has eaten everything I have put in front of him, so it would have to be terrible for him not...

LeanneLeanne: I eagerly pre-ordered this six months ago, and have been anticipating its arrival since then. It's a beautiful cookbook -- one that is sure to please both those who are new to vegan/plant-based eating and those who are already eating this way.

As a bit of background, I've been vegan for almost five years, but only read Dr. Greger's  How Not to Die: Discover the Foods Scientifically Proven to Prevent and Reverse Disease  earlier this summer. I loved that book and its focus on integrating research studies with practical tips, but had wished for more actual recipes. Enter this new cookbook . . . .

The book is divided up into the following sections:

* Simple Preparations -- includes ten recipes that are used as the basis for other recipes -- things like spice blends, almond milk, and vegetable broth
* Breakfast
* Snacks, Dips, and Spreads
* Soups and Chilies
* Salads and Dressings
* Burgers, Wraps, and More
* Very Veggie Mains
* Bean Cuisine
* Great Grains
* Sides
* Sweets
* Sips

Also included at the end is a section that includes sample menus for two weeks of eating, as well as some kitchen prep tips. At the...
