Vegetarian Weight Loss

I received a free copy of the ebook Vegetarian Weight Loss to review.

This is a pretty good book for anyone interested in trying a vegetarian diet or anyone looking to lose weight who is open to going vegetarian even if only temporarily. Though be warned, if you try a vegetarian diet temporarily you may find yourself permanently a vegetarian as you may end up feeling much better as a vegetarian that you won't want to go back to your meat-eating ways. The book is pretty good, it's mostly recipes including some bonus recipes from other books the author has published. There is also some good information about transitioning to a vegetarian diet, getting enough nutrients on a vegetarian diet, and just some good general information. I do have a couple of complaints, though. The first is all the smoothie recipes. Granted, that is mostly a personal complaint as I don't like smoothies but it is important to remember that smoothies aren't really all that healthy. The second complaint is a bit different, it is about the author claiming that food should not be microwaved because it will destroy the nutritional value of the food. That is blatantly false information. People used to believe that somehow microwaves broke down nutrients in food be now know that not only is this false, the opposite is actually true: microwaves, due to their shorter cooking times, can actually help keep the nutrients in food better intact than other cooking methods. I truly believe the author should retract that false information instead of continuing to spread such lies.
