    These people wrote me asking for a review of their products. Here it is:

    These books are for illiterates. If you can’t read, or can’t read well, this is the book for you.

    Paper with very little content. Lot of pictures–get out your crayons.

    Topics are distilled down to nothing. If you are stupid, this is the book for you. Fortunately for the publishers so many people today are both stupid and illiterate. Unfortunately stupid and illiterate people don’t buy books. So the write top reviewrs hoping for favorable reviews. They have written me three times asking for reviews.

    The reason they write top reviewers on for comments is they are hoping to get more people to buy books with very little content like this.

    Ok, I’ll put it this way. The entire book could fit on one page. Buy this book if you are stupid and think that one page of information is worth the asking price.

    Now, if the price for the book was free ou would get true value for the product.

    Free copies of these books are online. Here is a copy of the letter they sent me. Check out the url for complete copies of these worthless books.

    staccato panels of information. As you will see, our books are designed to

    be easily read on smart phones as well each panel corresponding with the

    screen of the phone.

    Give me a break. This is basically the South Beach Diet re-written. Nothing new hear is right. I was very disappointed. Waste of money, waste of time.

    I was a second away from clicking BUY NOW and then I scrolled to the reviews. Everyone seems to be in agreement that the Kindle version of this book is not formatted correctly and is unreadable in parts so I’ll be passing on this book until the problem is corrected. Thanks again.

    Just like all other diet books, nothing I didn’t already know. Expert in field makes it more sellable since author is a cardiologists.

    I found this a useless, boring and disappointing book. I was a sucker for a TV promotion; don’t make my mistake. This book will not help anyone get skinny.
