Product Description
The ultimate guide to using food as medicine from the Nutrition expert for the Today Show, Joy Bauer.
Nutritional healing has gone mainstream and researchers at top universities are publishing studies that show how the right foods can help prevent, manage, and sometimes entirely reverse the defining symptoms of a wide range of health issues. Whether it’s unwanted pounds or high blood sugar, mood swings or digestive trouble, the cure can be what you eat every day.
Now Joy Bauer, a nutrition consultant to celebrities from actors to gold-medal winning athletes, explains exactly what to eat to lower high cholesterol and blood pressure, improve skin tone, sharpen memory, sleep better, and take charge of PMS, arthritis, and more. Each chapter focuses on one of the many conditions that drive people to seek Joy’s professional help and simulates a personal consultation. Readers walk away with up-to-the-minute, scientifically researched recommendations on particular foods to seek out and which ones to avoid, plus grocery lists, meal plans, recipes, and supplement recommendations presented in easy-to-follow 4-step prescriptive plans.

 Food Cures September 15, 2008
Joy Bauer's book was a disappointment. Very short on recipes and hum-drum
on subjects to be addressed. High blood pressure and kidney disease are
greater concerns than healthy teeth and skin.
One other reviewer commented on repetitive material and I agree. The
book was repetitive and not what I was hoping for. I would have liked
to see far more food cure type recipes versus restatements similar
to other books. The organization and flow of material wasn't
as strong as I was hoping for. I bought it on sale for $6.99 plus
postage and felt as though I wasted my money.
 great book. haven't totally gotten all the way through it yet. August 28, 2008
This was a book reccommended by a friend and I ordered right away. I still haven't had a chance to put it to work, but I think it will be great.

I bought this book for weight loss, and the book is separated into lots of different chapters on anything from headaches to skin disorders...so not a huge section on just weight loss.
not that natural February 28, 2008

I thought this book would be a good resource, but it is rather mainstream and unexpectedly medically biased. I was hoping for more of a natural book. If you are just trying to figure out what foods are good for certain issues, this is ok. Otherwise there are many much better choices.
