The Rice Diet Solution by Robert Rosati (2005, Hardcover)

This book is excellent, very clear in the program, how to use it, and written nicely. I would recommend this book to others who are interested in eating a healthy diet, not another fad diet that doesn't work. For vegetarians a must have.

This is a very easy to follow diet plan. It woos a person into learning to include fiber into their diets. I have eaten more fruits and vegetables through this program than I had in at least a year and a half prior to embarking on the Rice Diet journey. It is a subtle way of also teaching the "dieter" how to lessen the use of salt and how to control the size of portions of meals and snacks. The title, "The Rice Diet Solution" is effective in getting people who are lookin for "quick weight loss fixes" to purchase and read the book. However, the benefits of the diet itself is more about developing a lifestyle. Excellent book. Very well written. This "eating plan" is much less restrictive than the original Duke University diet, written by a patient, Judy Moscovitz, entitled, "The Rice Diet Report." Dr. Rosati's, "The Rice Diet Solution," is, in addition to being easier to follow, probably provides a safer means of rapid weight loss, with the additional benefit of learning to modify eating habits. I would recommend this book highly. However, I find a lot of people who I have mentioned this book to, are put off by the title. They are wary of it being just about another "diet fad."

This is good book, very easy to follow diet. It has quite few recipes and easy to follow menu ideas.I definatly recommend to other.

I was given the suggestion from a friend you had read this many years ago - I looked at some other reviews, and after obtaining the book, I find it simple, easy to read, comprehend and follow. This is a simple, inexpensive method of imporving health, streamlining the body and losing "fat" weight. It provides the appropriate nutrients from simple fods and ideas that most anyone can perform. Like all diets, a person should commit to following the routine - and for most of us, old habits are difficult to break! Give it a try....success is easy!

I learned about the Rice Diet from a magazine aritcle. It lead me to check out this book. The book is an easy read and easy to understand the science behind the diet. The Rice Diet has had success at a center in NC since the 30's where you can pay $4800 a month to attend. You can experience the same success at home by following the advice of The Rice Diet Solution. I have made most of the receipes and love them. My husband and I have both lost weight on the diet and love our new "dieta".

I ordered The Rice Diet Solution book from this company and sent my money order in as instructed. It has been well over two months and I have not received my book or my money back. I even paid extra for two day delivery. After about a month went by I called Alisha Prophet on the phone which is a long distance call so it cost me even more money. I called several times and left messages and finally she called me back and gave me some story about them switching vendors and the book was not available after all so she was going to refund everybody that ordered this book. She asked me to give her a week and I would have my refund. It has now been a month and I still have not received my refund, surprise surprise!!!!! I have tried to call her several times and emailed her but have not received a response. THIS COMPANY IS A BIG RIP OFF!!!! I would suggest to everyone who is even thinking of ordering from this company to NOT DO IT or you'll be out your item you purchased and a lot of money!!!!!

Can you really lose twenty pounds in a month? Will you really keep it off this time? With The Rice Diet Solution, you will! The Rice Diet Program has been helping dieters successfully lose weight since 1939. Now in book form, this world-renowned weight-loss method can help you change the way you eat forever.

The Rice Diet Program in Durham, North Carolina, was one of the first medical facilities in America to use diet as the primary way to treat disease. On this high-complex-carb, low-fat, and low-sodium whole-foods diet, "Ricers" lose weight faster, more safely, and more effectively than people on any other diet. Men lose on average twenty-eight to thirty pounds and women on average nineteen to twenty pounds per month! The Rice Diet also detoxes your body, ridding it of excess water weight and toxins from processed foods and the environment. The program's results have been documented by extensive studies and confirmed by thousands of people who report amazing weight loss, as well as immediate improve-ment in such conditions as heart disease, diabetes, and hypertension. After all the other diets out there have failed them, people find that the Rice Diet is the one that finally works -- for good.

Here's how it works: The Rice Diet strictly limits salt and sodium-rich ingredients. Salt, like refined sugar, is an appetite stimulant, so when you reduce salt intake, you lose water weight and are less inclined to overeat. The Rice Diet also limits saturated fats and instead relies on carbohydrates (fruits, vegetables, grains, and beans) as the main source of nutrition. The fiber cleanses your system and satisfies you so you feel full quickly. The Rice Diet makes iteasy to limit calories; when you're eating foods that truly satisfy your hunger, it's a challenge to eat 1,500 calories per day!

To make it easy to follow the program, The Rice Diet Solution includes hundreds of tasty, filling, easy-to-prepare recipes -- some from the Rice House kitchen, others inspired by major chefs and adapted to Rice Diet standards.

The Rice Diet is not just an eating plan. It's a physical, emotional, and spiritual program that will change the way you live, giving you new vitality, energy, and longevity. Ricers report that the Rice Diet not only helps them solve weight problems they've struggled with their whole lives but also teaches them a whole new way of healthier, more mindful living.

Whether you want to lose twenty pounds or two hundred, the Rice Diet can help you do it -- finally and forever.

This is one of the best diets and healthly to follow. It is good for everyone-
just be sure you read the portion control. I lost five pounds in five days even when I doubled the portions it described-I thought I was getting to much too eat...I was. After the first week I didn't lose because I was actually doing the maintence portion. So after that I adjusted the portions...I feel very heathly, and light!

Recommended by friend. Menu's are laid out for 3 weeks 3 meals a day, and are easy to follow. Variety of recipes.

I would love to write a review of the book, however I never received it, it has been over a month and no book, and no response from the seller.

Can't say this has been a good buying experience.

Great book, and very fast delivery. Great customer service! This book was very hard to come by in local book stores. I was very happy to be able to get it in a faster turnaround thant he bookstore was offering and a little cheaper to beat!!!!!!!!!!!
