Who Wants To Have Access To Over 700 Healing Foods At Their Disposal With The Ability To Cure Over 1,500

Diseases?

Introducing:

The Encyclopedia Of Foods And Their Healing Power

This Encyclopedia is the result of the serious and in depth research into the science of foods and the healing power that they contain to treat and prevent disease

Over 700 foods researched, endowed with greatest healing power are grouped to try to prevent over 1,500 diseases according to the organ or part of the body that they can benefit most, from head to toe.

Throughout our lives, between 10 and 20 tons of food (or even more for some people) will pass through our months. A part of it will remain in our bodies, forming our cells and tissues. In reality, we are what we eat.

Eating is an inescapable act, from which nobody is free if they wish to carry on living. "Obliged" as we are to eat, we must do it in the most intelligent way possible. We should ask ourselves?

...Am I poisoning myself with the food I am eating?

Is it possible that the increase in cases of cancer has anything to do with the fact that more and more contaminated food is being eaten?

Do foods exist that are capable of preventing and healing disease in our times?

...What type of diet gives me the best quality of life?

"It is becoming more and more important to know how to choose correctly the food we buy in the supermarkets; what we put onto the table; what we give to our children; what we put in our mouths."

To know how to choose foods capable of giving us good health;

To know which foods can cause intoxications or diseases;

To know the healing and preventative properties of each food;

To know which foods are advisable for me to eat and which ones should be put aside to keep you healthy...

...For all of this, information and knowledge is needed, such as that which is offered in this encyclopedia of foods.

The most complete three volume set of Encyclopedia of Foods and their Healing Power teaches you to let food be your medicine and your medicine be your food. This full colorillustrated set includes an index of diseases, mediteranian style recipes that prevent and heal, as well as full nutritional contents of the foods presented.

Eating is an act that we repeat several times every day and one that greatly influences our health. Eating is one of the necessary pleasures of life. To be healthy, our bodies periodically need certain amounts of carbohydrates, fats, protein, vitamins, and minerals. If we provide too little or too much of these things, given enough time, we may succumb to disease. But on the other hand if we know how to feed our bodies in the correct manner, food can become our ally instead of our enemy.

In the first two volumes of the Encyclopedia of Foods and their Healing Power, Dr. George Pamplona-Roger presents the latest scientific studies on the nutritional value of different foods along with their level of suitability for the body. The third volume gives careful instruction on food preparation and how to transition to a healthier lifestyle.

The Encyclopedia of Foods and their Healing Power will give you an in-depth analysis of the composition and healing value of almost 700 different foods from five different continents. Based on these studies, Dr. Pamplona-Roger shows how increasing or decreasing consumption of various foods can prevent or heal almost 150 different diseases!
