		<description>I have read your books, and use them. You have inspired me to keep on eating well.  I do not know which Vitamins to pick for my own health, which is one of the shortcomings of using a mass media website:  I do not know what, or how much applies to me personally. There are so many choices.  Is there a difference for me,  a cancer survivor, than for somebody else? We are presently in a cancer epidemic! This is just my opinion. I fear for my daughters life, as well as my own. Thanks for your dedication!  You have saved many lives.</description>

		<description>Jonny,

Nice look, fresh and appealing!  Always like your choice of products and especially your opinion of each product.  Looking forward to ordering and receiving your new book release in Janaury 2010.  I&#039;m surprised that you don&#039;t have a form to pre-order this book.
Thanks,
Mike</description>

		<description>I purchased &quot;The 150 Healthiest Foods on Earth&quot; a couple months ago, and I love it. I love how it&#039;s not a diet book but an encyclopedia of good and whole foods, with a lot of science behind it. I have been incorporating many of the superfoods, etc., into my diet (raw whole milk--woo hoo!) and walking in the mornings; I have lost more than 20 lbs (lots more to go, but it&#039;s a start). Between your books and documentaries like Food, Inc., my diet moving forward is both personal and politicaI--for good health and longevity as well as a healthy planet--with no loss of love for food. It&#039;s all quite empowering. Thank you for the education. I look forward to the new book!</description>

		<description>Hi and thank you for the kind comments!

Possibly the new edition of &quot;Living Low Carb&quot; coming out in January-- she can skip around and find the parts that appeal to her but it may be just what she needs to start the conversation!

I have bought your &quot;150 heathiest foods&quot; book in the UK. Just a question that you may wish to cover in a future book: if haem (the red colour in meat) is damaging to the intestine (and hence one of the reasons for recommending its restriction): why does the same not apply to venison and other game meat which is red in colour?

Best wishes

		<description>Fabulous!  It&#039;s great to see such a great line-up resources to keep us healthy.  Gonna need to steal a bit away from my Christmas gift list money to get at least one for my own Christmas stocking.  And since I work on my 3 daughters and their families to stay healthy, I&#039;ll be sure to share what I get for myself and if I don&#039;t get something for their Christmas stocking this month, in the next few months, birthday presents will be purchased here.  Thanks for always suggesting how we can get healthier and healthier.   Best wishes for your holiday season.   Jim</description>

		<description>Maud
Thank you so much for your thoughtful input. We were Jewish growing up, but nevertheless celebrated the holidays in a very &quot;nonsectarian&quot; way with both menorahs and Christmas trees and i always thought of Christmas as having a wonderful holiday feel for all people regardless of faith (or lack thereof). But your point is very well taken and I will do it differently next year. Thanks again for your input

warmly

		<description>As a chaplain, my foremost thought is: help me understand what/how much discussion you had in choosing the name. Many people in our culture celebrate holidays other than Christmas, and many are agnostic. While I can understand your not wanting to miss this marketing opportunity, I cringe at the nearly universal commodification of Christmas. So on strong grounds of both religious pluralism and anti-commercialization, I suggest considering an alternative name, such as &quot;giftsource&quot; or &quot;holidaysshop.&quot; ...And to *all* a good night &amp; a healthy new year.</description>
