Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The statistics around health are shocking. According to the World Health Organization, by 2050, one in three American adults will have diabetes. One in eight people aged sixty-five and over currently has Alzheimer’s, and that number is expected to rise to one in four within the next twenty years. #2 The statistics on older Americans and the drugs they take are alarming. An average senior citizen who has been diagnosed with just five chronic conditions will be taking twelve different drugs every day to treat them. #3 The pharmaceutical industry spends billions of dollars every year to advertise their drugs to consumers, and many people are completely unaware of the many ways in which they are being manipulated into taking dangerous and sometimes completely unnecessary drugs. #4 The pharmaceutical industry is not in the business of promoting health; instead, it makes money off disease. And when one market begins to dwindle, it simply creates a new one by inventing yet another disease.

Yes, you are what you eat. For everyone who wonders why, in this era of advanced medicine, we still suffer so much serious illness, Food and Healing is essential reading. “An eminently practical, authoritative, and supportive guide to making everyday decisions about eating that can transform our lives. Food and Healing is a remarkable achievement.”—Richard Grossman, Director, The Health in Medicine Project, Montefiore Medical Center Annemarie Colbin, founder of New York's renowned Natural Gourmet Cookery School and author of The Book of Whole Meals, argues passionately that we must take responsibility for our own health and rely less on modern medicine, which still seems to focus on trying to cure rather than prevent illness. Eating well, she shows, is the first step toward better health. Drawing on an impressive range of thinking—from Eastern philosophy to current medical journals—Colbin shatters many myths not only about the “Standard American Diet” but also about some of the quirky and unhealthy food fads of recent years. What emerges is one of the first complete works on: • How food affects our moods • The healing qualities of specific foods • The role of diet in preventing illness • How to tailor a diet approach that is right for you “I recommend it to my patients. . . . It's an excellent book to help people understand the relationship between what they eat and how they feel.”—Stephen Rechtstaffen, M.D. Director, Omega Institute for Holistic Studies “Have a look at this important, well-thought-out book.”—Bon Appetit
