Description

First published in 1981, Dr. Haas's STAYING HEALTHY WITH THE SEASONS has become a classic in the fields of holistic health and healing through nutrition. Based on a traditional Chinese medical theory that embraces five seasons and their corresponding elements, this book suggests that each element is associated with a flavour, and each flavour is an indicator of balance or imbalance within the body.

Reviews

One of the classics in the field of integrative medicine. -Dr. Andrew Weil, author of 8 Weeks to Optimum Health"This is the kind of book that helps to redefine healing. Instead of offering drugs and surgery, it advocates a natural path that helps us to heal from within." -Michael Samuels, author of The Well Body Book
