Friday Book Report: The Bulletproof Diet


Dave Asprey’s book The Bulletproof Diet is, obviously, a diet book.  One does not, in general, read diet books for fun and this book does not encourage one to do so, although I have read many worse diet books.  There is a pattern.  Person feels miserable.  Person tries everything.  After much searching and gnashing of teeth, person finally finds the way and wants to spare the rest of us all that pain and suffering.  Buy this book.

This diet might work.  It includes foods my husband might actually eat, so we might even test it right here at home.  It eliminates the sugars that are the bane of the Standard American Diet.  It does focus on mostly whole foods.

Like all diets, it has idiosyncracies.  Asprey is obsessed with avoiding mold.  He adores grass-fed butter.  He has his personal list of must-have supplements.


The recipes at the end sound reasonably tasty and functional.  If you are looking for a set of directions, you could do worse than this book.
