Wow, I'm really surprised that you aren't happy with the member site. I love being a member, and hardly know where to begin to talk about what a great value I think it is! The fee that you pay for the first six weeks includes the Eat to Live e-book in the price, however, after the first 6 weeks it is only $7.95 a month, and I think that what I'm getting for that amount is pretty amazing.

First off, we have access to Dr. Fuhrman 24/7 in the 'Ask the Doctor Forum', where members post any questions they have about health and nutrition, and he posts his replies. Dr. F. has been known to be up at all hours of the night answering those questions. He is totally dedicated to the health and success of all of us who have committed ourselves to following his recommendations.

The community support at the forums is also something I have found pretty amazing. Have you tried posting and interacting with the other members at all? Usually when new members show up and start to post they immediately get a warm welcome and lots of feedback, and very often will comment on how overwhelmed they feel by all the support.

Another great thing about the member-site is the access to all the newsletters, which I believe Chumly has already mentioned. I really love the newsletters, and there is a great search function which allows you to put in a keyword to search through all of them in order to find the ones that contain exactly what you are looking for. The member library has some other articles as well, but the newsletters especially are a phenomenal resource in terms of the easily accessible info. that they put at your fingertips.

As far as recipes go, if you look at the section entitled 'Recipe Guide', there are definitely more than a few! I'm pretty sure that all of the recipes from all of Dr. Fuhrman's books and newsletters have been compiled there, as well as recipes that have been submitted by members. Its true that you can find recipes all over the net, but these ones are special because they are all geared to Dr. F.'s dietary recommendations, and members comment on them and rate them. There is a 'Cook to Live' section of the members forum where people talk about what they are planning to cook, and it includes a 'cooking buddies' thread where some of the members vote on what to make from the recipe guide, and then all plan to make it at the same time and report on their results.

Last but not least, Dr. Fuhrman holds a wonderful teleconference once a month, where he lectures on a particular topic, and then opens the line up to take questions. And if you can't be available at the time the teleconference is held, the recordings of the past teleconferences are always available to you in the member library.

I can't even begin to tell you how much I have learned from being a member of Dr. Fuhrman's website. He is succeeding in turning all of his members into nutritional experts. Knowledge is power, and the knowledge I have gained has totally changed my whole relationship to food, so that I will never again be overweight, and I will achieve my optimal potential for health and longevity.
