Why do the relatively poor native populations in Mexico and Africa have such low levels of the chronic diseases that plague the United States?

Why is the rate of seasonal affective disorder in Iceland--a country where dreary weather is the norm--so low?

Why is it that older women in Okinawa have such low breast cancer rates that it is not considered cost-effective for them to get screening mammograms?

The Jungle Effect has the life-changing answers to these important questions, and many more.

Whether it's the heart-healthy Cretan diet, with its reliance on olive oil and fresh vegetables, the antidepressive Icelandic diet and its extremely high levels of omega-3s, the age-defying Okinawa diet and its emphasis on vegetables and fish, or the other diets explored herein, everyone who reads this book will come away with the secrets of a longer, healthier life and the recipes necessary to put those secrets into action. The Jungle Effect is filled with inspiring stories from Dr. Miller's patients, quirky travel adventures, interviews with world-renowned food experts, delicious (yet authentic) indigenous recipes, and valuable diet secrets that will stick with you for a lifetime.

Red is bright red
Color: Red, Size: King
The quality of this is wonderful. It did have a funny smell, which I didn't care for. Four stars for the red one, as the red is brighter than in the picture. It reminded me of a Santa Claus suit. I gave it away. My friend loves it.

Good purchase ! Loved it .
Cozy Nights, Guaranteed This dark blue fleece blanket is an absolute dream! It's the perfect weight for those chilly winter nights, keeping you toasty warm without being too heavy. The material is incredibly soft and feels like you're sleeping on a cloud. I love that it's machine washable, making it easy to keep clean. The color is rich and doesn't fade or bleed, even after multiple washes. I purchased the queen size and it fits perfectly on my bed, providing ample coverage. If you're looking for a cozy and practical blanket, I highly recommend this one!

No cat claws allowed!
Color: Cypress, Size: Twin, Color: Cypress, Size: Twin
The quality of this set isn't the best. It you have a cat, a sharp claw or two will do visible damage! I actually clipped the loose threads off days ago, but there's still that double track of claw marks that will always be there. The pillow sham is also huuuge and looks awkward on a twin bed. It you have a large pillow it should be ok. The pillow sham isn't sewn together properly either, the fabric is bunched up where the seams meet. The comforter is pretty lightweight, so I will definitely be needing another blanket (or two!) with this one for winter. However, the set IS very soft, and it IS nice and cozy. The color in person is ok/does not look like photo advertised, as is, it would probably look nicer on a better quality set. The three stars is for comfort only. I will update this review after washing it a couple of times. Update: not even a month, and the fabric has ripped where the claw mark is. But, I have decided to keep it after all, if only for the comfort. Still not happy with the cost vs the quality. Latest update: added last 2 photos to show progression of wear. It does wash up well enough all considered. 3/31/24 Tears in the material (non-sherpa side) continue to appear. If you apply any type of tension to the fabric while making the bed, or just trying to pull the comforter over you when you roll over, you can hear the fabric tearing. I have found 6 tears to date.
