Doctor Yourself or Wood Becomes Water

Doctor Yourself: Natural Healing That Works

Author: Andrew W Saul

Don't bother looking in the history books for what has killed the most Americans. Look instead at your dinner table. We eat too much of the wrong things and not enough of the right things. Scientific research continually indicates nationwide vitamin and mineral deficiencies in our country, and we spend over a trillion dollars each year on disease care. Is it any surprise that doctors consistently place among the very highest incomes? Andrew Saul has seen enough of this situation, and in Doctor Yourself, he gives you the power you need to change it. Citing numerous scientific evidence, as well as case studies from his decades of practice, Dr. Saul explodes the myth that an army of medical specialists and pharmaceutical drugs are necessary to maintain our health. The human body evolved to live well and fight off disease on a supply of only a dozen or so essential nutrients. Unfortunately, modern meat-laden, high-sugar diets provide catastrophically inadequate levels of those nutrients. Using the guidelines and protocols for diet and vitamin megadosing laid out in Doctor Yourself, you can not only prevent disease from getting a foothold in the first place, but can also cure yourself of illnesses already in progress without resorting to drugs or surgery.

The most comprehensive guide to nutritional therapy ever published, Doctor Yourself provides proven methods for combating almost every possible health condition -- from asthma and Alzheimer's disease to cancer, depression, heart disease, and more -- all presented in Dr. Saul's unforgettable style. Whether he's delivering commonsense tips on subjects such as weight loss and longevity, praising the healthy glow of a carotene tan, or discussing with his children the merits of eating the aphids in their organic broccoli, Dr. Saul takes the starch out of healthcare and makes taking charge of your family's health an experience both valuable and fun.

Wood Becomes Water: Chinese Medicine in Everyday Life

Author: Gail Reichstein

Does your back pain flare up in the evening? Perhaps your water element is weak. Allergies in the spring? Emotional outbursts? Perhaps your wood element is too strong. Using the five element system of Chinese cosmology as a key-wood, fire, earth, metal, water-Gail Reichstein unlocks the ancient mysteries of Chinese medicine and makes them available for the everyday health and well-being of modern readers.

Each chapter includes: -Lists of common ailments associated with each element -Feng shui solutions for the home and workplace -Acupuncture treatment -Dietary therapy -Qigong exercises

Simple, easy to use, and practical, this introduction connects the physical, emotional, and spiritual forces at work in our lives and provides a vital contribution to the field of mind-body medicine.

What People Are Saying

Kenneth S. Cohen
Gail Reichstein's creative insight and engaging style makes a very old theory very new. By applying the Chinese Five Element Theory to health of body and health of home she reveals a level of wisdom relevant to people of any culture. I recommend WOOD BECOMES WATER to those who wish to deepen their understanding of Chinese medicine and themselves.
