Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

short and sweet

This is an updated account of the best ‘genius’ foods and science behind them. Max alludes to his recipes without ‘reading’ each in this audio version. He alludes to a pdf available for audio listeners which I assume includes the recipes. Thanks for creating an audio version! I enjoyed it.

Very informative. Helpful to my plan to become healthier as I have reached my 56th birthday

This cookbook is priceless.

The 3 hours of audio is worth it all by itself… not to mention you get 100+ recipes to go along with the priceless nutrition knowledge and tips Max offers.

The recipes are delicious and carefully thought out. And the audio portion teaches you about the different types of food/what to avoid and what to enjoy freely. There are countless tips throughout the book that are useful to beginners and experts alike, including shopping tips, cooking tips, even cookware tips.

Do yourself a favor and get this book. Read it, and re-read it. Share it with your family.
