Description
Chinese Dietetics and the power of foods in maintaining and restoring health. 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, to name just a few. Chinese dietetics is one of the pillars of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and thus, closely related to acupuncture and medicinal plant medicine and follows the same diagnostic principles. It is based on the observations and experience of centuries and offers practical and delicious recommendations for a healthy, holistic diet. Along with the right choice of foods and preparation methods, Chinese dietetics emphasizes developing a lifelong, healthy approach to food. This book covers the broad spectrum of Chinese dietetics: Part 1 introduces the Principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Chinese Dietetics, outlines the causes of diseases, and introduces the energetics of foods.
Part 2 and Part 3 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 4 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/sea food, dairy products, eggs, oils and fats, nuts and seeds and other foods. Part 5 lists many clinical examples and treatment suggestions. Part 6, for the reader in a hurry, and 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.
