Über dieses Produkt

Product Information

Used as a reference by students of acupuncture, this is a hefty, truly comprehensive guide to the theory and healing power of Chinese medicine. It's also a primer on nutrition-including facts about green foods, such as spirulina and blue-green algae, and the regeneration diets used by cancer patients and arthritics-along with an inspiring cookbook with more than 300 mostly vegetarian, nutrient-packed recipes.The information on Chinese medicine is useful for helping to diagnose health imbalances, especially nascent illnesses. It's smartly paired with the whole-foods program because the Chinese have attributed various health-balancing properties to foods, so you can tailor your diet to help alleviate symptoms of illness. For example, Chinese medicine dictates that someone with low energy and a pale complexion (a yin deficiency) would benefit from avoiding bitter foods and increasing sweet foods such as soy, black sesame seeds, parsnips, rice, and oats. (Note that the Chinese definition of sweet foods is much different from the American one!)Pitchford says in his dedication that he hopes the reader finds healing, awareness, and peace from following his program. The diet is certainly acetic by American standards (no alcohol, caffeine, white flour, fried foods, or sugar, and a minimum of eggs and dairy) but the reasons he gives for avoiding these negative energy foods are compelling. From the adrenal damage imparted by coffee to immune dysfunction brought on by excess refined sugar, Pitchford spurs you to rethink every dietary choice and its ultimate influence on your health. Without being alarmist, he adds dietary tips for protecting yourself against the dangers of modern life, including neutralizing damage from water fluoridation (thyroid and immune-system problems may result; fluoride is a carcinogen). There's further reading on food combining, female health, heart disease, pregnancy, fasting, and weight loss. Overall, this is a wonderful book for anyone who's serious about strengthening his or her body from the inside out.

  • Good quality. Amygdalin=laetrile=B17 is ...

    Good quality. Amygdalin=laetrile=B17 is contained in the seeds of many fruit. The green plum seeds are most potent. Apricot seeds comes 2nd but easier to get & has been used for 100s of years if not 1000s for treating many illness including skin issues, parasites, and the big fat C words, but it has been suppressed & demonised by U know whom. It is suggested to take 20-40 seeds/day. I take 10 seeds each am/b4 bed daily on empty stomach & no food for 2 hours. Combines Apricot oil & dried apricot.

  • "Healing with Wholefoods" says what it is on the tin so to speak. Need I say more.

    This book has so much to offer a reader interested in finding out how our bodies work and what we can do to be responsible for our own health through diet. I recommend this book to anyone interested in self help.
