From the Publisher

Could an angel have created this book? An amazing story goes with how it came to be. One day at the A.R.E. Clinic, in Phoenix, a woman named Brett Bolton showed up, saying that she had come to compile all of the Cayce excerpts on foods and beverages. She worked very steadily for quite a period of time, and when she had finished, she left -- and no one has seen or heard from her since!

5.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive List of Foods for Ailments, November 21, 2007

By	Carole Chapman "Photographer, Edgar Cayce cal... (Virginia, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This comprehensive book lists many ailments plus the foods and food combinations recommended by Edgar Cayce's trance source for the healing of that ailment. This reminds me of my Ukrainian grandmother who had different ways of making chicken soup based on whether you wanted to build up your blood after an illness or increase your milk supply if you were breastfeeding. I love that the Cayce readings provide so many wonderful ways of natural healing and also show such a respect for the wonderful remedies given to us by the nature.

Another book on foods recommended by Cayce for healing is Edgar Cayce on Healing Foods for Body, Mind, and Soul which describes healthy foods with such topics as the importance of positive attitudes while eating. Another great book is The New Life Cookbook: Based on the Health and Nutritional Philosophy of the Edgar Cayce Readings which is full of delicious recipes showing you how to prepare the foods suggested by Cayce. Plus, I love Treasures from earth's storehouse: Based on The Edgar Cayce readings because it lists the various foods (not the ailments) and quotes from Cayce's readings on the benefit of that food.

I like using a healthy way of eating to maintain health.

1.0 out of 5 stars Foods For Health and Healing, May 1, 2008

By	Gerald E. Bradley - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The information contained in the book is excellent, but the format renders the information nearly useless. The format of the book should be chapters and foods by the type ailment, not the type food. The format as I purchased would require hours of reading to get all the information about any specific ailment. Terrible, I would never purchase another book by this author and the price I paid for this one in for all practical purpose just wasted.
