This well-worn copy of “Save Your Life Diet” by Dr. David Reuben is a time capsule from the 1970s health craze. Published in 1976, at the height of the fitness revolution, this book promised a revolutionary approach to weight loss and healthy living. Reuben, a renowned obstetrician and author of the controversial “Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex” (1969), brought his frank and accessible style to the realm of dieting. While some of his advice may now seem outdated, the book remains a fascinating glimpse into the era’s attitudes toward nutrition, exercise, and wellness. Collectors of vintage health books and cultural artifacts from the 1970s will appreciate this piece of dietary history, complete with its yellowed pages and well-thumbed cover – evidence of its role in shaping the fitness mindset of a generation.
