Quotes:

  • BE LEAN, HEALTHY, ENERGETIC! is an inspiring book that will help you reach your healthy lifestyle goals! I recommend it to all my patients and use it during counseling sessions."
    - Kimberly Altman, M.S., R.D., Executive Director, Nutrition Services, University Suburban Health Center.
     
  • "Helene has developed an excellent tool for preventive medicine". 
    - Carol Gottesman, R.N., H.N.C., L.P.C., Creating Wellness, Inc.
     
  • "Your book makes it easy to make the transition. Your therapeutic recipes are basic, like pancakes -- so I can get started immediately. Plus, once I realized I would get energy from drinking water, because of the oxygen it contains, my whole perspective changed, and now I can't get enough of it!"
    - Pat Weurl, L.P.N., Homeostasis, Inc.
     
  • "I am border-line diabetic and have suffered from high triglycerides (1318 mg./dl). Now they are still slightly elevated at 190 mg./dl -- but I am not on any medications to control triglycerides or diabetes! Actually I've also lost 21 pounds using your mental checklist. I still eat all my favorite foods -- just less of them. Thank you for caring enough about others to write this comprehensive medical health planner". 
    - Ralph DeLuca, C.P.A.,     Certified Public Accountant
     
  • "It's like a home-study course; an intensive review of the information which lays dormant in your brain. Helene's book helps me to remember what I intuitively know is true. I keep it in my kitchen as a reference guide."
    - Patti Dial, Tree of Life, Inc. [distributors of natural products]
     
  • "I am a fan of yours. I really have enjoyed the book and I try to incorporate it as often as possible... And it has helped me. I recently had a very large baby and I gained a lot of weight with him. I am an x-aerobics instructor and I am getting back on track. Your book has been an inspiration. You put forth a good message about Mind-Body-Spirit. That's why I was drawn to it."
    - Tonya Strong, News Anchor & Reporter, Channel 5 WEWS, Cleveland, Ohio
     
  • "...loaded with good advice. A chapter on the food - mood connection is fascinating. After explaining how proteins, complex carbohydrates and sugar effect the body's levels of mood-related chemicals like serotonin and tryptophan, she gives suggestions or snacks that, unlike a Snickers bar, will work with your body's natural chemistry to boost mental focus, energy and mood. Not that Helene would tell you that you should never eat a Snickers bar. The best thing about her program is the value it places on listening to your own body's cravings, and the room it leaves for naughtiness."
    - Frank Green, "Body & Soul" column, THE CLEVELAND FREE TIMES
     
  • "...for people who can't afford nutritional counseling...and for people who don't like to read."
    - Susan Ketchum, staff writer, THE SUN NEWS
     

  • "Brilliantly Organized!"
    - Tom Katovsky, Publisher Healthy Referral Register, Cleveland, Ohio
     

  • "Be Lean, Healthy, Energetic! fills the void to provide what I have been missing: a practical, do-able program to integrate all I have learned into my daily life. The Daily mental checklist is posted on my wall, reminding me to keep the water bottle by my computer and stay hydrated, to get my 30 to 60 minutes of exercise, select superior foods, and to program time for myself to meditate and enjoy my surroundings. 

    My refrigerator and pantry are stocked with fruits, vegetables and other foods having a low-glycemic index. I am now eating low-glycemic, nutrient-dense foods for lunch and staying productive all afternoon. Soy protein products are readily available when I am looking for something to eat.  Thanks to Helene, I've become fascinated with soy foods and soy beverages. Our cereals and breads are now mostly whole grain. 

    In addition, my wife has been after me for years to take regular turns at making meals and doing the shopping. Using Helene's recipes and grocery lists, I've gotten excited about preparing evening meals. I've also implemented her hunger scale for determining when to eat. Copies of her 24 Hour LIFESTYLE LOG have been installed in a 3-ring binder which I use regularly to monitor not only my food intake but the level of hunger and fullness I am at when I start and stop eating... so I can better listen to what my body is telling me.

    Helene's book has provided me with the best chance I have ever had to actually become lean, healthy and filled with the energy I need to accomplish my work and serve my family. She has provided me with a path to follow to reach my goals, and for that I will be eternally grateful. I recommend this book to everyone who is trying to feel better, live longer and have a happier more fulfilling life."
    - Peter A. Gail, Ph.D. Goosefoot Acres Center for Resourceful Living, Cleveland, Ohio
