The Doctors Book of Food Remedies shows you how to use Mother Nature's "healing foods" to lose weight, prevent cancer, reverse heart disease, cleanse arteries, unleash an explosion of new energy, lower cholesterol, look and feel years younger, and much, much more.
You will discover how to:
• cut the risk of heart attack in half by snacking on nuts
• protect against colon cancer by eating grapefruit
• cool off hot flashes with flaxseed
• heal a wound with honey
• fight diabetes with milk—and wine
• reduce cholesterol with cinnamon

Newly researched, every entry provides current information and the latest clinical studies from real doctors and nutritionists working in some of the best medical institutions in the United States.
