"The Graedons offer evidence-based answers to questions about home
remedies for common health problems." "-Book News Inc."
內容簡介:
A guide to healing foods and home remedies reported to and
verified by Joe and Terry Graedon, including their carefully
researched responses on how and why such treatments work. The core
of this title is organized as QAs between the general public
and the Graedons. It contains as much information as a voluminous
encyclopedia of home remedies, yet it''s quick, easy, inviting, and
fun to read, with the same friendly and authoritative personality
conveyed in their popular call-in radio show. The Graedons also
offer a dozen new recipes for food so good for you, it serves as
preventive medicine.
Organized alphabetically by ailment and then, within each of those,
by food or remedy. Offers the basics of three standard diets for
health, weight control, and fitness, along with a dozen new recipes
for preparing food to match the diets. Includes a helpful index and
cross-referencing system, making the book both a good shelf
reference and an entertaining browse.
This book builds on the reputation of The People''s Pharmacy and
adds the extra value that comes from a partnership with National
Geographic.
