Prevention's New Food for Healing by Yeager et al. Editors,
By Joseph S. Maresca "Dr. Joseph S. Maresca CPA,... (Bronxville, New York USA) - See all my reviews (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Prevention's New Foods for Healing: Capture the Powerful Cures of More Than 100 Common Foods (Hardcover)
This book has a compendium of foods for weight loss, cancerprevention, management of arthritis and a whole host of health problems too numerous to list here. For instance, Vit. C levels, Zinc, garlic and produce help with the common cold. Did you know that olive oil is a good source of Vitamin E? Foods to control diabetes are noted; such as, multiple servings of fruits and veggies, high fiber, calcium rich foods and beans. This book is a solid value for the price charged. It will be a good addition to your personal health library collection.
