 Optimal Healing
Author Patricia Tsang, MD

Reflecting training and experience in both Eastern and Western medicine, this reference uses a scientific perspective to shed light on the teaching and practices of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM).

A user-friendly survey includes a look into the meaning of liver fire, hot qi, and wet heat; offers advice on common complaints, among them how to avoid having bronchitis every winter, how to become asthma-free, and finding relief from back pain without drugs; provides answers to infertility that won't break the bank; and addresses appropriate food choices for the individual.

Author L Robert Keck PhD
Blurb
This is a remarkable story of a life of pain and determination. A survivor of polio, a broken back, and chronic, crippling pain, L Robert Keck points the way toward an empowering new paradigm -- the challenge of taking control of our lives. Continuing the exploration of the meaning of present-day crises and revolutions, begun in his highly acclaimed book 'Sacred Quest', Keck explores the burgeoning awareness of mind, body, and spirit interaction. At the heart of his story lies the recognition that the discovery of our true 'soul-self' is the most important ingredient in disease prevention and healing.

 Conscious Health
Author Ron Garner
Blurb
This book teaches natural health principles with an emphasis on the causes of disease and methods of prevention. It takes the mystery out of how the body operates, why it succumbs to disease, and how health problems can be reversed. The book makes us aware that neither doctors nor medications alone can heal us -- only our bodies can. We come to see that health is a gift, and disease is a failure to take care of the gift. We are shown what we must do to give the body what it needs to keep us healthy. With the awareness that Conscious Health brings, we can move from hoping for health to conscious creation of it.

 Alternative Healthcare
Author Jack Raso MS RD
Blurb
Raso examines the philosophical underpinnings of "alternative" medicine as well as hands-on healing, Qigong, and faith healing. He shows that, whatever the specific philosophy, the common denominator is a rejection of the scientific approach of modern medicine in favour of a belief in paranormal forces that influence the well-being of mind and body. The final section is a firsthand account of Raso's many revealing visits to various "alternative" healthcare practitioners. The book concludes with an encyclopaedic glossary of "alternative" healthcare terminology.

 Detox Book, 2nd Edition
Author Bruce Fife ND

We live in a toxic world. Environmental pollution and disease-causing germs assault us continually day after day. Our food is nutrient deficient and our water supply dangerously contaminated. People today are exposed to chemicals in far greater concentrations than were previous generations. Diseases that were rare or unheard of a century ago are now raging upon us like a plague. Millions are dying from diseases that were virtually unknown in the past. Experts tell us that by the time we reach middle age, each one of us will have already been affected by either cancer, cardiovascular disease, or some other serious degenerative condition. Conventional medicine has no sure cure. Drugs, surgery, and radiation treatments can be as dangerous and debilitating as the diseases they attempt to cure. This book outlines the steps you need to take to thoroughly detoxify and cleanse your body from these disease-causing agents. You will also learn how to reduce your toxic exposure and how to strengthen your immune system.

 Naturopathic Nutrition
Author Abram Hoffer MD & Jonathan Prousky ND
Blurb
From two leading authorities in naturopathic clinical nutrition comes this consumer-health and patient-care book, diagnosing the dangers of our modern low-fibre and high-carbohydrate diet, while prescribing an optimum diet of nutrient-rich food and supplements for better health. The authors identify the nutritional deficiencies and dependencies caused by our 'junk-food' diet that lead to malnutrition and other serious dietary diseases and disorders. They recommend a diet that is whole, alive, fresh, and varied, rather than processed, dead, stale, and monotonous. For individuals with nutrient deficiencies and dependencies, they recommend appropriate vitamin, mineral, essential fatty acid, and amino acid therapy. The book features a 12-step program for developing an individualised diet and a 30-page analysis of the nutrient content of common foods. This collaboration between Dr Abram Hoffer (MD) and Dr Jonathan Prousky (ND) offers a unique complementary and alternative approach to good nutrition.

Bestowed an honorary degree from The Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine, Dr Abram Hoffer is a founding father of the complementary and alternative health movement, whose pioneering research in vitamin B-3 and vitamin C therapy for diseases and disorders inspired Nobel laureate Linus Pauling to publish his ground-breaking 'Vitamin C and the Common Cold' and 'How to Live Longer and Feel Better'.
