An essential guide to the optimum diet for health and wellness, from the founder of Whole Foods Market and the doctors of Forks Over Knives.

The Whole Foods Diet simplifies the huge body of science, research, and advice that is available today and reveals the undeniable consensus: a whole foods, plant-based diet is the ideal eating plan for health and longevity.

Standing on the shoulders of the Whole Foods Market brand and featuring an accessible 28-day program, delicious recipes, inspirational success stories, and a guilt-free approach to plant-based eating, The Whole Foods Diet is a life-affirming invitation to become a Whole Foodie: someone who loves to eat, loves to live, and loves to nourish themselves with nature's bounty.

If Whole Foods Market is "shorthand for a food revolution" (The New Yorker), then The Whole Foods Diet will give that revolution its bible—the unequivocal truth about what to eat for a long, healthy, disease-free life.

Critic reviews

"Evangelical and passionate, Mackey, cofounder of Whole Foods Market, along with Pulde and Lederman (co-authors of The Forks Over Knives Diet), reaches beyond the typical diet plan tenets of eating right to feel better and lose weight; this plan is expressly intended to help save and extend lives."—Publisher's Weekly

I would highly recommend this to someone who loves food and is looking to use it as a blueprint for food as medicine.

We've all heard the warnings about our health and the narrow-minded viewpoints of groups who like to target one particular type of food or one component of foods and eliminate those as a "quick fix". I love that this book avoids that whole narrative and instead gives a comprehensive overview of how food affects multiple facets of our health, concerning longevity, weight, overall mood, disease, etc. Written by the CEO for Whole Foods, there was significant mention of the store, but it is not portrayed as an advertisement for the store. There is also significant mention of scientific evidence, studies, and cultures around the globe that have proven the benefits of this type of lifestyle. I am excited to try it out!

Good, Comprehensive Overview

I learned at... I've read some of the other whole foodies books but I like how this one has messages from all of them and I also like the "read this: learn more " after each one.

very interesting

I’ve been listening to this book for about 3 weeks now, and it has caused me to do a complete health “re-set,” getting back to eating whole foods. Very informational and also extremely motivating!

Really inspiring

Very informative and easy to listen to and learn from. It’s one of those books that you listen to more than once as you go through your journey; maybe specific chapters. There’s a perfect blend of advice, information, and encouragement to put into practice steps towards a new healthy lifestyle.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book!
