I bought this book initially for the recipes, which I made 2 of the first day I had it. They were simple and delicious. (Easy Corn Soup, Curried Tofu, Cashew, and Broccoli Stir-Fry). I found this book by searching on google for tofu recipes for liver health and came across the Garlicky Tofu recipe featured in TODAY. I made that first, then bought this book.
The first third of the book provides an overview of the fatty liver disease, what it is, and provides examples/anecdotes of individual's discovery, diagnosis, treatment, and outcome. Toward the credibility of the book, there are 14 pages of selected references at the end, though they are not well cited throughout. This book helped me calm down a lot about the potential diagnosis of someone I care about. It put fatty liver in perspective, and made it something much more treatable and common than the nurse practitioner at the GI's office made it seem.
That being said -
I appreciate the middle 3rd of the book which addresses "where to go from here". Lifestyle change, exercise, etc. However, this is where the trouble started. In the chapter on "Liver Love" The author gave her personal opinion...

Love it - well explained - but scary when you do have NAFLD and have not been as strict since Covid hit. But an eye opener too! It’s a silent killer.

Lots of information to enable one to understand and to tailor their own routine/lifestyle. Also the recipes were a surprise - delicious, easy, healthy, and wholesomely satisfying. The menu plan and included recipes make it very easy to sort ones food issues/problems out, both as on it's own and/or as an example to use as a guide.

Has great information to understand liver function and fatty liver disease in easy-to-understand language. In the past two months I have lost over 10 lbs (162 to 150) and my liver enzyme levels fell by 50%.
My favorite part is the sample 4-week menu with recipes. I’m terrible at planning meals and can’t be trusted to incorporate vegetable and fruits on a daily basis. So a set menu ensured that I snacked on fruit and nuts and completely eliminated processed junk food. The recipes are easy to follow and you can get the ingredients at any health-foods store.
And the dishes are SO GOOD! I feel like my palate has adjusted to the natural taste of food, rather than the overly salted or sugared dishes of popular American cuisine. The recipes rely more on spices and aromatics to bring out flavor; and often the spices are also anti-inflammatory (like turmeric or cinnamon).
I am so grateful for this book and I highly recommend it, not just to those suffering from fatty liver, but to those seeking a healthier diet and overall lifestyle.

December 2017, 51 years old, a non drinker, a non street drug user and yet his liver stopped working. He was told that it was going to go one of two ways. (1) Liver Cancer (2) Liver Transplant that was it. Completely scared, unsure of what to do, he saw this advertisement on TV for this eating regiment for people w/Fatty Liver Disease. He bought the book here. He read the forward and realized this book was written for him! Starting weight 265 pounds. That was January 2018. Following the recipes and guidelines in 3 weeks he lost 15lbs.
Seven months later he weighs 197 pounds. He says he feels so much better. He’s off all medication, except for 2.5milgram high blood pressure med. He is continuing with this book.
