What if there was a magic potion to help cure disease and lengthen life? And make you feel and look better in the process? Believe it or not, there is—and the place to find it is in the sea. Seaweed is eaten for its powerful nutritional benefits, used as a poultice for its healing properties, and soaked in for its ability to relax and moisturize even the most overworked bodies. This Fountain of Youth—whether fresh, dried, or in capsule form—is available more widely than ever before, and now readers everywhere can learn about its extraordinary qualities.
In this unique and comprehensive guide, Valerie Cooksley, R.N., explains in clear prose how to use seaweed, and why it works—in its medicinal, nutritional, and cosmetic applications. In addition, she offers fascinating information about humankind’s relationship with the sea and its mysterious underwater plants. Seaweed features recipes for delicious meals (including many for the seaweed-wary); do-it-yourself spa treatments and topical treatments for specific ills; advice on finding, storing, and using seaweed; and much more. It’s a book for anyone interested in living a healthier life.

by T. Colin, Campbell, Thomas M. Campbell II, John Robbins, and Howard Lyman |
ISBN: 1932100660, Paperback - 10.13 BUY
Referred to as the "Grand Prix of epidemiology" by The New York Times, this study examines more than 350 variables of health and nutrition with surveys from 6,500 adults in more than 2,500 counties across China and Taiwan, and conclusively demonstrates the link between nutrition and heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. While revealing that proper nutrition can have a dramatic effect on reducing and reversing these ailments as well as curbing obesity, this text calls into question the practices of many of the current dietary programs, such as the Atkins diet, that are widely popular in the West. The politics of nutrition and the impact of special interest groups in the creation and dissemination of public information are also discussed
