Chinese Nutrition Therapy

Author: Joerg Kastner

Chinese Nutrition Therapy shows how a daily diet in tune with the seasons and the body's requirements can maintain health and help heal medical problems; from the common cold and flu to cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, OB-GYN, skin, immune system, respiratory and eye disorders, just to name a few.

Key features:
• Part I introduces the principles of traditional Chinese medicine and Chinese dietetics, outlines the causes of diseases, and introduces the energetics of foods
• Part II and Part III describe Chinese dietetics in practice and introduce important dietary factors such as times of day, seasonal adaptations, pathogenic factors, as well as the different dietary requirements of children and seniors
• Part IV gives practical tips for successful implementation of Chinese nutrition therapy, and provides food classifications for the most common food categories: vegetables, grains, spices and herbs, fruit, meat, fish/seafood, dairy products, eggs, oils and fats, nuts and seeds and other foods
• Part V lists many clinical examples and treatment suggestions
• Part VI, as a handy reference, lists the healing characteristics of foods from A—Z

Chinese Nutrition Therapy is a "must read" for physicians, TCM practitioners, nutrition therapists, and all others concerned with healing and staying healthy. Written by an M.D. and long-time practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), it bridges Western allopathic medicine and Chinese syndrome diagnosis.

The Itinerary of a Breakfast

Author: J H Kellogg

Dr. J. H. Kellogg, who, along with his brother, invented the corn flake, here offers a "popular account of the travels of a breakfast through the food tube and of the ten gates and several stations through which it passes, also the obstacles which it sometimes meets." At the time he wrote this book, Dr. J. H. Kellogg was the medical director of the Battle Creek Sanitarium. Kellogg was a committed Adventist who was very interested in proper diet and health, which led to his medical vocation, but also to a keen interest to find natural remedies for disease. Among other things, he promoted vegetarianism, which led to the development of the corn flake and other breakfast cereals. He was the author of more than fifty books.
