Summary: Essential b.s. eliminator
Rating: 5  
After reading countless magazine sales pitches couched as articles and opinionated arguments among body builders on the Internet, this book is a welcome, refreshing source of understandable factual information on what to eat, how to eat it, and when to eat it. Simple.   
Since it is by and for the U.S. Navy it is not trying to sell you the latest supplementortraining video, so you might be left wondering what the catch is--there is no catch.   
Large text, many tables of reference information, clearly written in a commonsense way make this indispensable for body buildersorathletes, not just military personnel. I can't recommend this manual highly enough.  
  
Summary: Help Yourself Get Healthy
Rating: 5  
Although targeted toward the Navy SEAL, this book is full of easy-to-follow nutritional information anyone can benefit from.  
  
Summary: Simple and Concise Nutritional Information
Rating: 5  
I have bought nutritional books in the past and just been swamped with their language and theory. As a incredibly busy graduate student (people with similarly busy lives can relate) I just didn't have time to sit down and battle out the information, let alone in one sitting. Upon getting this book, I cracked it open and already found myself zipping through the worksheets giving myself quick access to important nutritional information. The authors have broken the subject down into easily understandable segments (though this book probably isn't for the more advanced nutritionist). It is important to note that the book is targeted towards Navy SEALs and other military personnel. Consequently it does give information that is important to them and may not be relevant to the average reader (i.e. - information on military rations and mission recovery nutrition). The chapters covered are:
1. Energy Balance = Energy Expenditure - Energy Intake
2. Carbohydrate, Fat and Protein: The Energy-Providing Macronutrients
3. Micronutrients: Vitamins and Minerals
4. Vitamin and Mineral Supplements
5. Fiber and Health
6. Fluid Replacement: Water and Other Beverages
7. Healthy Snacking
8. Restaurants, Fast Foods and Eating Out
9. Nutritional Considerations For Endurance Activities
10. Nutritional Considerations For Strength Training
11. Nutrition for Optimum Mission Performance
12. Nutritional Interventions for Mission Recovery
13. Food for the Field: Military and Other Rations
14. Nutritional Considerations for Adverse Conditions
15. Ergogenic Agents - Looking for "The Edge"
16. Ergolytic Agents - "Going Backwards"
Plus all the appendices and worksheets you could ask for!
I highly recommend this book for someone who just wants to get healthy and wants quick access to the information to do so. I ESPECIALLY recommend this book for military personnel who don't have the time in the field for the insane calculations found in other books, but who find it absolutely vital to stay in shape (their lives may depend on it!). Hopefully that was helpful and good luck in your searches for good health!  
  
Summary: Great data
Rating: 5  
This book is extremely helpful, with knowledge about every possible situation that you would find yourself in, and how to properly fuel your body.   
  
Summary: Clear and concise nutrition information for high perfomance
Rating: 5  
This volume provides clear and concise information on nutrition taylored to the need of the U.S. Navy SEAL operators and is as such equally valuable to all military personel. Although much of the material covered can be found elsewhere, this book cuts to the core and deliveres the information in context of the various missions undertaken by SEAL's and SEAL trainees, garnished with results from research conducted by the U.S. Navy specific to SEAL's and their operational environment.   
Written in a workbook format, it provides tables and work-through examples to let you easily determine your own diatery needs. The book also covers the contents and nutritional value of the different military rations (MRE, LRRP etc.) and their usefullness for various missions and climatic conditions. A chapter on healthy eating in (fast food)restaurants and on eating for post-mission recovery adds to it's usefullness outside of field missions.  
This is really a one-stop source for the military community. A very easy read and highly recommended!
