Food for health; food as medicine

Live healthy and long

                                                  

In the recent posts I made, attributed to Dr Mercola, there was a mention of GAPS, theory of Dr. Natasha Mcbride, namely that the Gut is the seat of neurologic and psychiatric health.  Dr. Gerson therapy on cancer relies solely on nutrition and detox.

The thesis of many of the posts here, like the late posts shared from Garden of Eden is that food contributes to sound health, and prevention of diseases.

The book of Jean Carper, "The Food Pharmacy " has its main MVP, thesis, that food is the best medicine.

Some important findings on food (from Introduction of the book):

l.  Food contains a lot of pharmacologic agent;
2.  Some doctors are prescribing food as medicine;
3.  Many folklore on food, are not just based on hearsay but supported by scientific evidenced based facts;
4. By making small changes in your diet, some chronic diseases:  high blood pressure, diabetes, allergies may be stopped/reversed.
