About

"A wonderfully practical tome that explains how folks around the world benefit from the healing power of food." - Mehmet C. Oz, MD, co-author of You: The Owner's Manual

The Jungle Effect is a fascinating, useful and important book." - Michael Pollan, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Omnivore's Dilemma and In Defense of Food
"[The Jungle Effect] reads like an exotic, ever-unfolding international mystery - with recipes." - Heidi Benson, , San Francisco Chronicle
"The Jungle Effect was such an enjoyable read that I almost forgot I was being fed a steady dose of valuable nutrition advice-advice that combines the wisdom of our ancestors with the latest nutrition research." - Bradley J. Willcox, MD, co-author of the New York Times bestseller, The Okinawa Program and Clinician-Scientist, Pacific Health Research Institute, University of Hawaii

The Jungle Effect is an odyssey where she follows clues and food experts to discover some of the healthiest diets around the world -- and how best to recreate those meals and lifestyles in our daily lives." - Juliette Rossant, author of SUPER CHEF
"The Jungle Effect is a brilliant piece of work. Why? Because it is so gloriously green: indigenous knowledge is recycled and transformed into a comfy, hip, yummy set of food choices. The message is practical, palatable, and pleasing." - Harriet Beinfield, coauthor Between Heaven and Earth: A Guide to Chinese Medicine
"Presents us with a unique travelogue of healthy eating." - Gail Altschuler, MD, Medical Director, The Altschuler Clinic, A Center for Weight Loss & Wellness
