Fee Fie Foe Fum and other ailments

When you buy this book, you will rush to your nearest apothecary and order a home version of a mortar and pestle to grind most of these cures. They sound as credible as the "blood type" recipe/lifestyle books of the past 10 years or so. Unfortunately there's no mention of crawdaddys. If you buy this book used, you won't regret it. It is jam packed. None of the ailments seem dangerous or anti-conservationist, so if you have a hankerin' for rhino horns, fergit it!

Top notch

The good: this book has only 192 pages yet it has hundreds of food cures. it has chinese-medicine profiles of a large number of food items.the cures are really effective i have tried some my self. it has an effective cure for Hypoglycemia(low blood sugar) using an extremly common fruit everyday. I tried it with excellent results , I feel like superman!. it presents scientific experemints , citizen reports , medical knowledge , and personal experience and research.Also: This book gives a valuable working knowledge of chinese food effects and cures which is a major part pf chinese medicine.Food interaction is the first protocol of chinese medicine.So with this book you'll know a practical home based healing system with out needing to go to China or learn Chinese or going anyware because by just ordering this great book you'll learn alot of important info that will show its importance for a very long time in that you will constantly be referring to it.Remark:generally speaking , practitioners of an alternative medicine practice are more knowledgable of natural cures than MDs who research the field.The bad: of course this book cannot cover all known foods, you will find some common foods missing and this book has a large number of asian foods that arent common in some countries. some organization problems , sometimes the index does not show all possible cures , maybe there was a computer error in the printing , meaning that you might find a cure for a certain disease that wasen't listed under a food name.The Bottom line: buy this book now , try its remedies before you go to a hospital.

Great if you can find the foods

I bought this book after a friend recommended it. The cures really do work. A friend of mine often gets headaches and he is immune to any type of medicine including OTC pain relievers. I gave him a remedy from this book and his headache was gone in 20 minutes! So far all of the cures we have tried worked. Unfortuneately some of the items required are either very difficult to find or non-existant in the US. We went into Chinatown in San Francisco looking for black sugar and all we received were very weird stares.

Excellent! Easy reading and informative!

A unique book based upon Chinese Medicine. Informs the reader WHY certain foods are good and bad for YOUR body type. Many good hints about eating.
