Recently, Morissette read the book, Eat To Live, by Dr. Joel Fuhrman, changed her eating habits and in doing so, she changed her health in addition to redefining her shape.  Eat To Live, advocates eating a vegan meat-free dairy-free diet , which Alanis Morissette says helped her to feel more energetic.  She also claims that as a result of this vegan diet,  she is suffering from less allergies.

In turning to the Dr. Joel Fuhrman’s program, she was not focused on losing weight, but was instead interested in living a long and healthy life.

Longevity. I realized I want to live till I’m 120. There’s a lifestyle that I am now happily creating that can, as best as is possible, prevent most forms of cancer and other diseases….

I went to my favorite bookstore, Banyen Books and Sound, in Vancouver. I saw this book, Eat to Live, and I thought, that’s exactly what I want to do. I wasn’t interested in some fad diet that was unsustainable, like “lose 10 pounds in two weeks.” I don’t believe in diets; I think they’re short-term and a bit of an emotional roller-coaster. So I opened it and flipped through and thought the weight loss is incidental. The primary focus is disease prevention.
