The Tao of Healthy Eating – Book Review

I recommend this book for all my patients. I keep a copy in my waiting room. Dietary therapy is one of the most important parts of Chinese medicine. Major topics covered include food allergies, candida and obesity. The author explains the meaning of Chinese medical terminology such as Liver Qi, Stomach Heat, and Kidney Yin deficiency with easy to understand metaphors.

Bob Flaws is one of the most prolific American authors on Chinese medicine. In this book he nails the age old argument between cooked vs. raw food for once and for all. It includes the Chinese medical descriptions of over 200 Western foods plus Chinese energetic information on vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. Chinese dietary therapy can lengthen your life!
