A lot of repeated information from other health books I've read, however it was a great reminder- I bought the book because I had heard before it's release that it would discuss autophagy (and it did) but not quite to the extent I would have hoped. I also didn't love the journaling part of it.

My thoughts: 11% - Wow! So I can't believe she didn't know McDonald's wasn't nutritious, and I'm blown away by her red dye experience. 12% - 🤯🤯🤯I have heard from JJ Smith that we are surrounded by chemicals, but she didn't mention that our beauty products are more toxic than our cleaning supplies. The most dangerous product tested was a children's shampoo marketed to people of color. I wish she'd name the brands because all I can think of is Just For Me and Baby Love.
20% - I have heard this before but not with this much depth. The shampoo was in a kiddie relaxer I bet it was Just For Me, but I know they had competitors. I no longer feel guilty about not being body spray crazy.
52% - A journal is needed for all of this information. I will be purchasing this book.
89% - This is a bit overwhelming despite the relaxed approach.
I'm buying this book. One of the best books I have read on this topic. It has plenty of information without using scare tactics. I highly recommend everyone read this book. You don't have to finish it, there is even a screening at the beginning of the book. I was disappointed there was no separate journal for this book but there are questions in the book. I will have to read Fast. Feast. Repeat, she had a chapter on it, abd although I'm familiar with intermittent fasting, she sparked my interest. In a nutshell this the perfect book for someone who want to reduce the attack on their liver from our current environment but isn't giving up Oreos.
Recommend to others?: Yes! Even if you don't want to change your lifestyle at all, it's worth it just for the history and studies.
