Book Reviews of Prescription for Natural Cures
Book Review: A handy reference
Summary: 5 Stars
This user-friendly reference on natural healing and preventative strategies for a variety of ailments is based on the premise that body functioning is optimal when the foods ingested are as close as possible to their natural state. The physician-author believes (and lot of people endorse this view) that non-emergent and chronic ailments should be managed by holistic medical techniques, while using modern medicine as a useful adjunct, and not the other way around.
Each chapter is devoted to a health condition, and it is further subdivided into an overview of the disease, its root causes, symptoms and testing techniques. Treatment is divided into recommended foods and the foods to avoid, detoxification strategies as well as complimentary treatments including homeopathy, accupressure, stress reduction and aroma therapy.
Over 100 health conditions are discussed in this format! These include conditions as diverse as acne, high cholesterol, diarrhea, headache and sinusitis etc. Part II of the book reviews essentials of natural medicine including diet, nutrition, fasting, supplements, exercise etc. This is one thorough book to have around!
