Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Did you know that fish oil and collard greens block breast cancer? Brazil nuts can improve your mood? That contrary to popular belief, sugar actually mellows out most people? Carper's collection of culinary medicine is astounding. Based on research culled from prestigious scientific institutes around the world, Carper reports on what you ought and oughtn't to eat for ailments ranging from heart disease to cancer, strokes to depression and anxiety. It's pleasant to think of health as taking place in your kitchen instead of the doctor's office or hospital. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

From Publishers Weekly
Columnist Carper ( Jean Carper's Total Nutrition Guide ) here provides preventive and antidotal foods for innumerable ailments: colic, gas, gallstones, cancer, ulcers, colds, asthma, osteoporosis and even headaches. Organized to be thumbed through readily, the book carries many catchy subheads jauntily: under "Coffee Calamity," readers will find the warning that caffeine may worsen gallstones; under "Milk Gone Sour," we learn that diarrhea can be an allergic reaction to cow's milk. Besides its practical applications, the book is interesting just for its facts, some familiar, some not: red wine, chocolate, cured meats, MSG, and even fava beans may spur headaches; tomatoes and other nightshade vegetables, some believe, bring on arthritis. And nursing mothers who consume garlic before feeding time will induce their infants to drink longer and better.
