Book Review: Unsafe at Any Meal: What the FDA Does Not Want You to Know About the Foods You Eat by Dr. Renee Joy Dufault

Unsafe at Any Meal: What the FDA Does Not Want You to Know About the Foods You Eat by Dr. Renee Joy Dufault

Back in 1965, a very good year by the way, Ralph Nadar published his book, Unsafe At Any Speed. Nadar was attempting to warn the American public about the dangers of the automobile and particularly the Chevrolet Corvair.

In the book Unsafe at Any Meal: What the FDA Does Not Want You to Know About the Foods You Eat by Dr. Renee Joy Dufault, the author is seeking to inform her readers about the dangers lurking in our food.

The author makes a very compelling case regarding the Standard American Diet (SAD) and how it can lead to autism, Attention Deficit Disorder (ADHD), and Alzheimer's disease. It even appears that it may be possible to reverse some of the effects of those conditions by changing our diet.

One would think that a book like this would be a very dry read, but it isn’t. This book is well-written and not too academic for most readers. When she does speak in scientific terms, she explains those terms in a simple form that even a redneck could understand and get the point.

Dr. Dufault tells her readers what they can do to live a healthier life. She explains how even a person on a very limited budget may be able to eat healthier. Wouldn’t it be great if she and her associates were to write a cookbook that provides healthy recipes on an extremely low budget?

We give Unsafe at Any Meal all five stars on our scale of zero to five stars. We think it is an important book. This book is well-written and easy to understand, even though it does take on a fairly complex subject.

This book should be made required reading for all high school students. A few hundred congressmen should also read this book.

We were sent a complimentary copy of this book. We are under no obligation to write any review, positive or negative.

Book Review: Called to Stand: How a Small Christian Ministry Courageously Stood Up to Government Tyranny By Patricia Feijo


Called to Stand: How a Small Christian Ministry Courageously Stood Up to Government Tyranny
By Patricia Feijo


From time to time we read a book that makes us slow down to take in all the details.  Called to Stand: How a Small Christian Ministry Courageously Stood Up to Government Tyranny by Patricia Feijo is one of those books.

The author takes us on a journey with her and her husband as they seek God. They lived the kind of life many would like to, but are afraid to step out in faith.

From traveling to foreign countries at the drop of a hat to taking in total strangers they felt needed God’s help, this family has done it all.

Then, the couple felt led to start a health food business.  This business became the subject of a federal witch hunt.  It appears the federal government thinks we, the American people, are too stupid to think for ourselves.

Most of Called to Stand is spent chronicling the story of that ongoing federal witch hunt.

We give Called to Stand all five stars. This book is extremely well-written. It is the kind of story that draws the reader into it.  The reader can actually feel the desperation of the family as they go through not only governmental persecution, but at times persecution and abandonment by fellow Christians.

If you are a Christian, you simply must read this book.  

If you believe in the freedom to choose your own health plan, you must read this book.

If you believe in the free enterprise system, you must read Called to Stand.  

You should add Called to Stand to the list of gifts you give out this Christmas.  This is the one gift that will work for anyone on your Christmas list that can read.

When you buy your copy, make sure to buy a second copy to give to your church.  You may even want to make this the text for a small group prayer study in your church.


We were sent a complimentary copy of Called to Stand in the PDF version.  We are under no obligation to write any review, positive or negative.
