I received this book free to review from Netgalley and I really struggled with how to review it. I picked the book because I am interested in Veganism and I think I must have just skipped over the part in the description about the “spiritual vibrational” quality of food. Due to my Judeo/Christian background, when I saw the word "spiritual", I thought "God" - not "God, the Universe, Spirit, the Creator, Allah, Rama...the One - which we are all a part of." Nor did I think the book would be about yin and yang, prayer and life-force energy, guardian angels, angel therapy or the chakra energy system. People need to be aware that this is in the book. I found it a bit distracting, and also entertaining at times. Despite that, the book really does contain very good health and diet information and has great resources listed at the back. I did learn some things from this book that I find very valuable such as the fact that "Americans eat two to four times the amount of protein that they need which can lead to fatigue.", vegans should take B12, it is misleading to classify proteins as incomplete or complete and more. So, if you are ok with stories about someone's guardian angel telling him it is ok to eat a sandwich made by an agitated food server and that praying over the food will keep the fear energy from affecting the food or him (I found that story entertaining if nothing else), then I really do recommend the book because it really does have some good information about health and diet.
