Description (back cover)

Chinese System of Food Cures reveals a fascinating, proven way of using the healing properties of foods by understanding their flavors, energies, actions, and movements. It also explains why foods often affect people differently. The key is the “y-score,” a scale based on the traditional principle of yin and yang that applies to foods and body types.

Once you know your y-score (and this book shows a simply way to determine it), you can follow specially prepared food and body-type tables to develop your own personal approach to disease prevention and health.

This book is packed with eye-opening ideas for selecting and preparing hundreds of vegetables, fruits, meats, grains, and legumes to relieve and cure an astonishing range of health problems: overweight, smoking, insomnia, asthma, ulcers, diabetes, hypertension, nephritis, hepatitis, dysentery, anemia, menstrual disorders, and many more.

Begin now to bring greater harmony and health into your life, with the most effective, most natural disease-prevention system of all—the foods you eat each day!
