    Prescription for nutritional healing

    James F. Balch, Phyllis A. Balch, Stacey J. Bell · 1990

    This book is a wonderful reference to what all the vitamins and minerals are and what they do for our body. It also explains which foods to get each nutrient from and even provides delicious recipes. What I like the most about the recipes is the healthy alternatives they provide.

      I've read several things talking about shitake and reishi (sp?) mushrooms being used for treating sickness, perhaps helping the body fight viruses or bacteria faster than it would without. I am leaning towards seeing this in TC< (traditional Chinese medicine) things, but could have been in the book 'prescription for nutritional healing' -

      having solid references for western studies would take some digging. I think the effects are similar to garlic?

      It's been a while since I've read that info.

      QBC (quercitin/bromelain/vitamin c) seems to have a very good effect on my attention span, ability to concentrate, anxiety levels, etc. However it does not go well with coffee, I get a "speedy" feeling I don't like. So unfortunately I don't take this supplement as much as I would like, because I love coffee so much.

      Other nutritional remedies can be found in "Prescription for Nutritional Healing" by Balch.
