Transformed my skin!
This book is absolutely fantastic!! Lauren does a great job of explaining the impact the kidneys have on our overall health and well-being. If the information she provides doesn't make you want to rethink your health habits and give your systemic health a makeover, I don't know what will! It certainly convinced me, I had no idea how critical the kidneys are in controlling so many aspects of our health. I was reading the symptoms associated with poor kidney health that she provides in the book, and I was literally thinking "I have that, I have that, I have that" while reading them.The symptom that has plagued me for years is face and chest acne. It's been incredibly frustrating not feeling comfortable in my own skin and nothing I've tried has helped, until I did this kidney cleanse and started changing my diet around. This book provides so much information in a very easy-to-digest format and language. My favorite part of the book are all the recipes and grocery lists. I have now become an avid juicer and she provides so many delicious and easy ideas for juices, as well as other foods. This book has also made me a religious dry brusher. This, along with my changed diet and kidney cleansing, has absolutely transformed my skin!There is a reason why this book is the first result that comes up when you google "kidney cleanse book". It is full of great information and her enthusiasm and passion for the subject truly shows itself in her writing.

This book is extremely well-written and informative!
As someone who is not extremely familiar with the ins and outs of health, I always am a little hesitant when it comes to books around cleanses and health remedies. However, when I picked up this book I quickly realized that this book could not be more helpful, informative or well-written! I love how Lauren starts with an intro of why kidney health is vital to overall health (who knew??) and then she goes into some great, easy recipes that even the most novice of cooks can make! I also loved the yoga overview and pictures of the poses - I actually keep the book open when I do my yoga practice and it's extremely easy to follow. She also has some great shopping lists that I've taken to that market.I am so grateful that I found this book - it really has opened my eyes to a whole new viewpoint on health, and has really helped me implement easy, everyday small changes that have resulted in me feeling more healthy and energetic.I can't wait for more of Lauren's books to come out!!!

Good book! Insightful!
Pleased with the information in this book so far. Will read it periodically for a long time. And will be doing the 30 day cleanse to hopefully stop making kidney stones. Not sure if cleanse works yet because I am still just reading it.

Good information. But the print is so light that it is hard to read. There are some sections that are confusing and hard to understand.

I "kid-ney" you not... buy the book ;)
I in general consider myself a healthy person. I work out, eat healthy, get plenty of rest, even use a majority of "non-toxic" household products. However, sometimes I find my energy waining and my back aching. The worst part was I didn't know why. After reading this book, I realized how many toxins follow me around in my everyday that can affect my kidneys and cause these problems. I am a dental student so I am constantly in a lab working with plaster/stone, amalgam, and chemicals. The air quality is terrible. Also I live in LA which doesn't help either.This book is the perfect way to combat conditions beyond my control. It takes the kidney which is one of the most complex organs and simply explains its function extending to systems throughout the body. The author also very meticulously points out ways to help bolster kidney function with everyday food, great recipes, and small changes to daily routine. Who knew there were yoga poses that target my kidneys?I recommend this book to everyone!! Its an easy read, very informative, and has great solutions to a very complex problem.

Excellent 'How-to' Manual, Easy to Read, Wealth of Information for Kidney Health
This is an outstanding book on many levels. There is actually very little good information available to the general public about how important kidney function really is to overall health, and how our daily food choices, hydration, exposure to chemicals, and emotional / stress responses can affect our health. Lauren goes into great detail, from both western medicine and holistic medicine perspectives to explain the function of the kidneys and their impact on our health. This is an easy to read book with very clear instructions on how to complete a simple kidney cleanse at home. Smoothie, juice and healthy food recipes, shopping lists, supplement choices, adjunct therapies, and guidelines are included, as well as recommendations of when to consult a physician or holistic / alternative practitioner for additional support. This is a great book for anyone who wants to take charge of their health. The information presented is very accurate, science and clinical based, and very informative. I highly recommend it!

I learned so much- look at my diet differently now
I've always eaten healthy but just knew the general guidelines- more protein, less carbs, cut fat and calories, more water, etc. This book made me look at my diet and my body differently- I learned so much and it was well written even for someone who isn't a nutritionist. I HIGHLY recommend this for everyone and have already recommended it to most of my friends and family. I think people always have an idea of what they "should" do, but never a real grasp of why- this book puts that all into perspective and makes you realize how amazing your body really is. Even small changes in the right direction can get you to a place you never thought you could be. Also, it really helped me when I hit a weight loss plateau- sometimes you just need more info about what you are eating.
