This edition of The Healing Foods Cookbook includes an introduction which explains why eating right helps your body to prevent and fight: heart disease, stroke, weight problems and obesity, cancer, diabetes, blood pressure and hypertension, hormonal imbalances, PMS, and candida. The recipes reflect Jane Sen's talents as both a nutritional therapist and true food lover. The use of good, quality ingredients ensure that her recipes never feel like they're trying to be healthy. The recipes are free from animal products, saturated fats and unnecessary sugars, instead making use of fresh, unprocessed ingredients.
