Welcome!


Welcome!! My name is Paul Lappen. I am in my early 60s, single, and live in Connecticut USA. This blog will consist of book reviews, written by me, on a wide variety of subjects. I specialize, as much as possible, in small press and self-published books, to give them whatever tiny bit of publicity help that I can. Other than that, I am willing to review nearly any genre, except poetry, romance, elementary-school children's books and (really bloody) horror.

I have another 800 reviews at my archive blog: http://www.deadtreesreviewarchive.blogspot.com (please visit).

I post my reviews to:

booklore.co.uk
midwestbookreview.com
Amazon and B&N (of course)
Librarything.com
Goodreads.com
Books-a-million.com
Reviewcentre.com
Pinterest.com
and on Twitter

I am always looking for more places to post my reviews.

Dr, Sebi Alkaline Diet

 Dr. Sebi Alkaline Diet, Nicole Gibbs, 2021, Independently Published

This cookbook/diet plan is all about preventing illnesses like diabetes and inflammation and removing toxic waste from the blood by a strict, vegan diet. Another cause of health problems could be your body's pH level. An optimum number is approximately 7.3, or slightly alkaline. The lower that number is, the more acidic it is (not a good thing). A blood test will give that number.

The book also explores pluses and minuses of the diet, how it helps with weight loss, examples of acidic and alkaline foods, and foods that are allowed and not allowed. It also includes 48 recipes that can help start your journey back to health.

Among its recommendations: Drink Lots of Water - up to one gallon per day (!). Greatly increase consumption of fruits and vegetables (organic if possible). Eliminate consumption of processed food, red meat and junk food, which is most of the typical American diet. For most people, this book may be common knowledge. For everyone else, this book is worth reading. Maybe this will help the reader get over their gastrointestinal or inflammation problems. (This book loses one ratings star because it needs a trip, or another trip, to a proofreader.)
