You are What You Eat by Kirsten Hartvig
Naturopathy is a partnership between the healing power of nature and the self-healing ability of the body. Its basic principles are that you are what you eat, and good food is the basis of good health. This look at naturopathic nutrition challenges out-of-date ideas about diet and shows how it is possible to treat acute and chronic illnesses naturopathically. This guide explains how much protein, fat and carbohydrate is needed to be healthy, and how much of each vitamin and mineral should be obtained from our diet in order to maintain good health. Tables are provided to help the reader find the best sources of all nutrients, and twelve wonder foods are pinpointed which should be eaten as often as possible. Ways of analyzing your diet are provided as well as a diet plan according to particular needs, whether the reader be convalescing, pregnant, wanting to lose weight, or wanting to improve their diet and health. This guide also shows how common diseases such as osteoprosis, eczema and arthritis can be prevented and treated by a naturopathic diet. The aim is to show how healthy food can de delicious and interesting, as well as good for you.| SKU | Unavailable |
