I have known David Nico for several years and have found him to be a kindred spirit in the world of health and wellness. He is not content with just quick-fix methods that invariably fail after a time, like many so-called experts are, but he is interested in the holistic, long-term healing of the body, mind, and spirit. His depth of insight into the physiology and biochemistry of our complex bodies and minds are impressive for a non-physician. His understanding of the connection between our physical and spiritual health is vitally important in our world today. And he is able to distill the jargon down into understandable language for the common people seeking answers and hope. Dr. David Nico will be a credible voice in the world of health and wellness for many years to come.

If you are either confused about diets or interested in learning more about the dozens of different diet programs and which one might work best for you, then David Nico’s book Diet Diagnosis will be a valuable resource. But Diet Diagnosis is more than just a survey of different types of diet programs. It discusses a wide range of important topics like GMOs, artificial sweeteners, agricultural toxins, and the underlying causes of obesity, plus a healthy dose of encouragement to find the diet that is right for you.
