HEALING WITH WHOLE FOODS(ISBN=9781556434303) epub 下载 pdf 网盘 2025 mobi 在线 免费

　　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.
