The Healing Power Of Natural Whole Foods A Self Help Guide To Understanding Planning And Implementing A Healthier Diet

As a nation, Americans (as well as people in much of the developed world) suffer from a variety of nutrition-based afflictions: the epidemic of obesity, and the crisis of preventable diseases are examples. The on-the-go population of our 'fast food nation' eats poor quality food that has been stripped of its nutrients. We seldom consume enough fresh vegetables and fruits, and are addicted to prepackaged, pre-made meals. Twenty-five percent of Americans eat at fast food restaurants every day. But whereas we are well fed, we are undernourished. We have an abundance of food, plenty to eat, but we are starving ourselves nutritionally. Dr. Swilling has dedicated his life and work to the prevention of illness urging us toward a diet of these foods and other powerful nutrients. In this book, he reveals some of the most advanced information on these subjects available anywhere, and makes a solid contribution to the literature on self-healing and wellness.
