Dr. Gabriel Cousens has created a comprehensive foundational work on nutrition with his books, which has achieved the status of a vegetarian bible in the USA. In this volume, he emphasizes the importance of transitioning to a conscious diet. He demonstrates how we can make intelligent choices for health and quality of life, gradually, non-dogmatically, and most importantly, enjoyably becoming conscious eaters. He proposes a path in four steps or stages. Particularly important on this journey are enzymes that strengthen the immune system, structured water, as well as bioelectricity and the zeta potential of living food. Additionally, Dr. Cousens discusses the risks associated with dairy products, meat, fish, and heated fats, as well as chemical pollutants in our food. However, the author is not only concerned with health and a long, healthy life. The spiritual significance of a conscious diet is especially important to him. While we cannot "eat" our way to God, a conscious diet supports our transformation process. It makes us more open to perceiving the presence of God in our lives.
