A book that could change the world - By: Ian McCabe, 18 Jun 2003 
Absolutely amazing book. The workings of the human body explained in simple terms & in a way that makes far more sense to me than conventional thinking. Ehret explains how every disease that humans suffer is caused through wrong diet & how a cure for every disease is possible through a change in diet. His teachings have cured many thousands of people whose conditions were diagnosed by "Medical Science" as incurable and, in many cases, terminal. His teachings have stood the test of time & "Medical Science" is very slowly discovering what he had discovered almost a century ago. Unfortunately, I believe that commercial interests may prevent this method of teaching from being accepted. However, if his teachings were to be adopted & practised we would truly have a far more healthy & peaceful world. Challlenge your current way of thinking & read this book!
Disease, aging, and death are reversible chemical processes - By: , 06 Jun 1999 Reading between the lines of this simple yet profound book tells us that aging is based on the progressive accumulation of nonfunctional matter within the confines of the body which ultimately obstructs organ function until a key organ fails & death ensures. The origin of the nonfunctional matter within the body is from diet. If the foods we eat are not completely digested down to simple sugars & amino acids, & these incompletely digested fragments are absorbed, they only serve to obstruct the body's internal mechanisms. Aging is based on the progressive accumulation of nonfunctional matter originating in diet. If we can eliminate more nonfunctional matter from the body on a day to day basis than is formed, we have in fact reversed the aging process. Nonfunctional matter is eliminated from the body through two surfaces: the skin by sweating & the entire lining of the alimentary canal from the mouth to the anus, in particular fhrough the surface of the colon from the goblet cells. The substance of Ehret's book is the same as that found in the HATHA YOGA PRADIPIKA which is a sanskrit text explaining the scientific basis of physical immortality. The key to making spiritual progress is the complete purification of the physical body. For the brain to function on a higher level the substance in the body that limits the electrical capacity of the brain must first be removed. The rest is then automatic.
For Truth Seekers: On the body, food, obstruction, vitality - By: , 29 Jan 1998 Reading this book I feel like a archeologist having just discovered in some anchient tomb, a manuscript containing the greatest secrets to life! Prof. Ehret uncovers in simple language the most fundamental aspects about the nature of the body, accumulation of obstructions, mucous & toxins & the resulting disease, by what ever name they may be callled. Also how to go about cleansing the body while transitioning to a pure, natural diet that is meant for our bodies. The book appeals to our common sense & rings clear as an obvious but completely overlooked truth.
Cowabunga! A cure for all disease is found. - By: , 06 Oct 1997 The "Mucusless Diet Healing System" is a book that teaches you an entirely new understanding of the human body as it relates to food consumption or nonconsumption, as the case may be.The body's eliminating functions are described in great detail. Thank you.
Turn of the century view of health,healing,+achieving them - By: , 09 Mar 1997 
While obviously not based on modern day science, he was indeed cutting edge in his time. Many of his ideas have withstood the test of time & science. Some however, like the 40 day fast- are not advised. He pioneered ideas like dairy products are not best for everyone (lactose intolerant) as well as that meat may clog you & slow you down,as some heart doctors say nowadays. He also points out that modern man has very little to lose by missing a meal now & then. Interesting reading from a pioneer of modern diet & medicine.
