A Wonderful Guide to Caring for Your Body & Soul with Nature's Bounty

This book has been a treasured guide of mine for several years now, and I recently purchased my 3rd copy! Not only is it filled with important facts on how to nourish your body's needs according to the seasonal changes, it also includes delicious recipes that have become staples in my kitchen. Each season is represented with two chapters. The first chapter focuses on detox diets that target specific body parts, and suggests specific foods for creating health in that particular part of the body. The second chapter lists all of the foods that are available during the particular season, and recipes for including them in your diet. If you like to care for your body, enjoy shopping at the farmer's market, and love to be in your kitchen this book will be one you will have forever! Nothing in the book is extreme, it is all focused on using what nature provides us according to each season to create a healthier you! Buy it, read it, and get well!

Great!!!

This is a one of a kind book, very special that prepares you for the next season. It is about adjusting your body with the right foods so that you can prevent illness and other maladies, say for instance in the Winter, colds and flu. Also has the best information on fasting and the teas you would make to drink during these fasts, and how to break them. I have personally fasted with these teas and made it to 6 days and felt really wonderful, cleansed and renewed. I highly recommend this unique book, you will not be dissapointed.
