0 out of 5 found this review helpful

After deep search of Dr. Budwig's discovery of flax seed, I can't still find basic ratio in use of oil and cottage cheese (quark)...I can't beleve that her life long work with fatty acid and etc. doesn't explain exactly how much oil we need mixed with cottage cheese???? ...and this book is same - no exactly written about ratio between oil and protein..I start thinking that everithing about flax oil is simple business, like all here in US (eg. "zeolite" ...etc.).

Straightforward and easy to follow. Based on vast experience of an accomplished researcher and experimenter. Not a fad, like so many other things to do with diet these days. Am using it for own persoanl and family use as well as for patients. Extremely valuable knowledge for anyone and everyone.

Recipes for variety and relief in a daunting diet May 19, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

If you are determined to follow this "flax-oil and cottage-cheese (or quark-cheese)" diet, say you found out about it somewhere else, e.g., [...], you'll welcome Dr. Budwig's own little book of over 500 recipes. I took heart when I saw that I could still have plenty of interesting deserts, even "ice creams" made with the recipe(s) in the book. But there are lots of other dishes and courses to keep life interesting. Although cooking and sauteing with butter, lard, margarine and almost any vegetable oil is a "no-no" - because the heat breaks them down into toxic components, it is still possible to cook, carefully, with pure cocoanut oil - a solid at room temperature. If you are a creative cook, after mastering preparing the basic ingredients and principles, you should have no trouble coming up with your own delicious recipes. The book mentions that fresh fish (non-farmed) and game (free-run poultry?) are permissible sources of protein. I cook these by baking or poaching rather than pan-frying.

I became quite interested in Dr. Budwig's work through research. My chemistry skills are pretty old, so I struggled mightily through her lectures embodied in the companion volume "Flas Oil As a True Aid ..." etc.br /br /Now, this book is supposed to be a cookbook. The substantial value of the diet is the preparation of the flax-based key ingredients that are then replicated in every ensuing recipe.br /br /What this book needed was a decent editor. It is a translation of work that was mainly done 60 years ago! One cannot go to Germany circa 1960 in order to implement the food plan, and so the editors needed to do just a little bit of work to make this relatively painless for implementation.br /br /There is virtually NO decent editing work done here, and the references to Dr. Budwig's patented, offered products is not suitable. For instance, one of the key ingredients in these recipes is a "Muesli" carefully designed by Dr. Budwig. (One of her colleagues stated that he wished the beneficiaries of this diet - the users - all had a PhD in chemistry so they could understand the quality of Dr. Budwig's work.) br /br /This Muesli ("Linomel") was once branded by Dr. Budwig, apparently, and the book references an 800 number to call. However, when you do call, they tell you that was a "misprint" in the book, and that they sell flax seed oil, and not "Linomel," Dr. Budwig's patented product.br /br /The fact is, you will look in vain for what Linomel truly is, and therefore will have to go without it. Some internet sites tell you to simply use 4 teaspoons of freshly-ground flax seeds, and to eat them within 20 minutes. Others simply replace it with flax seed oil and cottage cheese, which, in the book, is called something else.br /br /Therefore, when buying this book, be prepared to do a whole lot of head-scratching and web searching to get the basic ingredients down.br /br /Also, be prepared to pay a fortune for your flax seed oil, as the cheapest it can be found, even buying bulk, is $12.50/qt. More likely you will be paying around $15 per cup!br /br /

What could be better the information that will improve your health.br /For those who are not big fish eaters this is the answer.
