FOOD IS MEDICINE VOLUME 3 BY BRIAN CLEMENT
The Food IS Medicine series emphasizes the powerful effect that an organic, plant-based diet has on disease prevention and recovery. The evidence provided in this series suggests that when a diet consists of a wide variety of health-building foods, it protects cells from degeneration and affords greater potential for a longer life. Volume Three compiles summaries of scientific studies that spotlight the foremost dietary hazards to human health. High on this list are meat, dairy products and sugar. Processed foods, food additives and food contaminants are also proving to be a potential cause of chronic illness. Brian Clement advocates that avoiding non-foods and an ever increasing group of man made products is just as important in disease prevention and longevity as the consumption of a proper diet. This indispensable reference provides key findings on dozens of conditions and their relationship to the foods we eat.

- Psoriasis
- Multiple sclerosis

HEALING LYME DISEASE COINFECTIONS BY STEPHEN HARROD BUHNER
A guide to the natural treatment of two of the most common and damaging coinfections of Lyme disease-Bartonella and Mycoplasma. Reveals how these conditions often go undiagnosed, complicate Lyme treatment and cause a host of symptoms-from arthritis to severe brain dysfunction. Outlines natural treatments for both infections, with herbs and supplements for specific symptoms and to combat overreactions of the immune system. Reviews the latest scientific research on Bartonella and Mycoplasma coinfections and how treatment with antibiotics is often ineffective.
Distilling hundreds of peer-reviewed journal articles on the latest scientific research on Bartonella, Mycoplasma, and Lyme disease, Stephen Buhner examines the complex synergy between these infections and reveals how all three can go undiagnosed or resurface after antibiotic treatment. He explains how these coinfections create cytokine cascades in the body-essentially sending the immune system into an overblown, uncontrolled response in much the same way that rheumatoid arthritis or cancer can. Detailing effective natural holistic methods centered on herbs and supplements, such as the systemic antibacterial herb Sida acuta, which acts to protect blood cells from invading organisms, he reveals how to treat specific symptoms, interrupt the cytokine cascades, and bring the immune system back into balance as well as complement ongoing Lyme disease treatments.

Healthy Coconut Flour Cookbook by Erica Kerwien
Coconut flour is quickly becoming one of the most popular flours on the market today. It contains no gluten and no grain, and is also low in digestive carbs, making it a favorite among paleo, primal, gluten-free, and low-glycemic dieters. In addition to what coconut flour doesn't contain, what it does contain is just as impressive. Not only is it packed with protein, but it also contains four times more fiber than oat bran; just a few tablespoons provides you with between 28% to 50% of your daily required intake! Unlike gluten-free flour mixes, coconut flour may be used on its own and contains only one, all-natural ingredient: coconut! Its pure, slightly sweet taste is subtle enough that even coconut haters won't be able to detect it, and it lends itself perfectly to baked goods, creating results far superior to other gluten-free treats. One bite of light and moist coconut flour bread will have you addicted! With The Coconut Flour Cookbook, you'll learn how to bake wonderful breads, muffins, cakes, and more with this amazing flour, which is now easy to find in most grocery stores and online.
