Patricia Bragg (1929–2023)

This book was one of 6 I picked up at the Newport Public Library's book sale last weekend. I've had good luck with Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar chasing away sore throats, indigestion, headaches, and malaise so thought it'd be an interesting read. It is, but being that it's written by the producer of the Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar which practically has a monopoly on natural vinegar with "mother", it comes across as highly self-promotional, so I'll probably try some of the recommendations, but may hold off on declaring the "Bragg Healthy Lifestyle" as a cure for aging.… (altro)

The book is crammed full of words and quotes, but it is also quite repetitive. Some of the information isn't complete, pg 94 ...almost all meat is laden with herbicides, fungicides, pesticides and other chemicals that are sprayed on or poured into the feed which these animals consume."

This is true, but it's also true of our fruits and vegetables.

pg. 95 has outdated information about cholesterol.

The author sounds very confused about her religion as well and writing about God and mother nature is distracting as well as ridiculous.

I wouldn't recommend the book.… (altro)
