Summary:
From the publisher. East meets West in the kitchen with the nourishing treasures of
Chinese
Medicine
. Food can be the most powerful
medicine
. This outstanding book introduces and teaches how to apply the ancient wisdom and traditions of the
healing
that comes through food according to
Chinese
medicine
. This is a new way of thinking about what foods are needed to achieve balance and ultimately improve
health
. Goldsmith provides a keen and comprehensive understanding behind the basic principles of
Chinese
medicine
so they can be easily applied to day-to-day lives. She takes these same concepts, expands on them for the food to eat in order to maximize the benefits of
Chinese
dietary therapy. Eating well is essential to good
health
and
Chinese
medicine
believes that food truly is
medicine
. In an easy-to-understand and straightforward manner, Ellen explains how and which combination of foods and flavors act upon the body to move qi (energy) and how they act on the body to warm or cool. Many of the modern day chronic
health
problems caused by lifestyle, genetics and stress can be helped by distinctive and long lasting changes in the way we eat.
