Everything I planted on our five acres this year was with an eye toward turning it into a bird haven. After reading this book, I will be planting goji berries next year for the humans, and using a net if need be to preserve that crop for the humans.Of course I doubt the crop will be ready next year, but does it hurt to plan ahead?The author surprised me by some of his facts on artificial sweeteners, but that didn't matter. My own doctor told me long ago they did more harm than sugar. And let's not start any arguments about sugar being 'all natural'. So is arsenic.Mr. Lee recommends some fruits more than others and feels most people are too weak to give up their favorite beverages. Since I did in February I have two words for him- free will.What gave me the will power to give up something I enjoyed? Check into what high fructose corn syrup does to your body.But giving up that little caffeine has left me lifeless by 6:30 p.m.  I needed this book. Some of the things I knew, like eating in combinations; some I didn't, like more than the same two combinations day after day.So why did I only give the book three stars? At the end of the book there appears to be a link to a website. Wow!! Additional information, right?Nope, scam. A page full of advertising and trying to sell you very own website.What a cheap trick. Of course, after the author sees this he just might change his tactics. Anyway I hope he has the decency to do so.This book is too good to be ruined like that, but I'm not the one who ruined it.
