Healing with Whole Foods: Asian Traditions and Modern Nutrition
ISBN: 1556434715
Binding: Hardcover
Edition: 3 Rev Upd
Author(s): Paul Pitchford
Publisher: North Atlantic Books
Number of Pages: 784
Used as a reference by students of acupuncture Healing with Whole Foods is an invaluable guide to the theory and practice of Chinese medicine With facts about green foods such as spirulina and blue-green algae and information about the "regeneration diets" used by cancer patients and arthritics it is also an accessible primer on nutritionand a 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 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" by following his program The diet is certainly ascetic 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 the 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 offers dietary tips for protecting yourself against the dangers of modern life including neutralizing damage from water fluoridation 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
