Product Description
What Dr. Andrew Weil is to herbal medicine and Dr. Phil is to TV psychology, Dr. John La Puma is to culinary medicine. At thirty-five, after eating too much of the Standard American Diet (SAD, isn’t it?), Dr. La Puma had become SADly paunchy. So he decided to research the science of nutrition while also going to culinary school to learn to cook. He created the revolutionary new concept of “culinary medicine”–recipes, foods, and meals that prevent or control common health conditions without sacrificing restaurant-quality taste.
Now you can use culinary medicine too. In ChefMD’s Big Book of Culinary Medicine, you’ll learn to stock the medicine chest in your kitchen, use the doctor inside of you, and create dishes that give you lifesaving benefits and truly dazzling flavor.
Dr. La Puma serves up a step-by-step eight-week plan to motivate you and help you change your life. Try Saffron Scallop, Shrimp, and Chickpea Paella. Or Sicilian Pasta with Swiss Chard, Goat Cheese, and Basil. Or Spicy and Rich Sausage and Kidney Bean Chili.
Anyone who loves food, wants to have more energy, wants to reverse his or her family health history, or wants to know what to eat to get and stay healthy should read this book. Its recipes, meals, and menus can work within minutes of eating them.
Experience food you can’t wait to make, and grab the energy and good health to reclaim your life.

Excellent cookbook for preparing organic meals.We eat way too much processed foods,that our bodies store as toxic fat.The fresh fruits and vegetables are loaded with cancer fighting compounds and good health restoring ingredients.Our tastebuds change over time.I loved fastfood,yet hated snacking on veggies.I learned to love the various vegetables,after seeing the results of sticking to an organic diet.You are what you consume.The processed fats,starches and sugars will do more harm than good for you,over the long run.This book has so many worthy all-natural recipes,for the prevention of disease,diabetes,heart troubles and fatigue.The book opens new avenues of insight into alternative ways of getting the most nutrition for your body's top fitness.

I am still in the process of reading this book. It is really great. I gives basic nutrition info to get you started. It gives the steps to set up up your kitchen and cupboards that will have you on the right track for eating healthy. It is filled with lots of new recipes giving the break down on nutritional value. I cant wait to finish it and be on my way to feeling healthier.

Great book. Not boring at all like a lot of health books are written. I thought I knew it all on this subject but I learned so much more. I learned new things not discussed in other books or materials I have read. I will purchase more of these books and give them as gifts. That's how much I enjoyed the book and think this information should be shared with your loved ones.
