Natural Stomach Care or Cooking with the Diabetic Chef

Natural Stomach Care: Treating and Preventing Digestive Disorders with the Best of Eastern and Western Healing Therapies

Author: Anil Minocha

The complete resource for digestive health.

It's been said that health begins in the stomach. When digestion is not working properly, the whole body suffers. Skin rash, bad breath, headache, fatigue, overweight, and premature aging can all result from poor digestion-not to mention gastric disorders like heartburn, indigestion, and irritable bowel syndrome. But nearly half of digestive disorders can be averted with proper eating, exercise, stress management, and related lifestyle modifications.

In Natural Stomach Care , gastroenterologist Anil Minocha, M.D., combines the wisdom of traditional Eastern healing with the advancements of conventional Western medicine to offer a wide range of easy-to-use, affordable, and effective at-home natural therapies that can strengthen digestion, keep the colon clean and the bowels moving, and improve overall health. In addition to recommendations for overall digestive health, Dr. Minocha provides remedies for a host of digestive complaints. Treatments include healing Chinese herbs, Ayurvedic medicine, yoga, tai chi, probiotics, vitamin and mineral supplements, and lifestyle changes, making Natural Stomach Care an innovative, integrative approach to digestive health.

Cooking with the Diabetic Chef: Expert Chef Chris Smith Shares His Secrets to Creating More than 150 Simply Delicious Meals for Peop

Author: Chris Smith

Many cookbooks for people with diabetes are written by nutritionists or dietitians, but while those books might present well-balanced and nutritional recipes, they often fail to focus on recipes that are flavorful and easy to prepare. Author Chris Smith is not only a trained restaurant chef and a graduate of the prestigious Culinary Institute of America--but he is also a person with diabetes.

You will find more than 150 recipes--everything from appetizers to entrees to desserts--arranged by season so that the freshest ingredients can always be used. You will also discover a simple and convenient way to organize meals up to a month in advance using the Diabetic Chef's unique meal planner.

Library Journal

Chef Smith was diagnosed with Type I diabetes while attending the Culinary Institute of America and interning at a four-star hotel. After teaching cooking seminars for diabetics, Smith developed this marvelous book for the discriminating palates of the diabetic population. Mouthwatering recipes are divided by season to reflect the abundance of fresh foods available at different times of year. Emphasis is placed on the use of the freshest meats and vegetables for optimum flavor. All ingredients should be easily found at any grocery store, and instructions are clear, concise, and easy to follow. Complete dietary data, including exchanges, are included with each recipe. The bulk of the recipes are for meats, main dishes, and vegetables, with a smattering for salads and desserts. Some condiments are also included, as are chef's hints and definitions of food terms (fat free, nonfat, low fat, etc.). A wonderful addition to any collection.--Janet M. Schneider, James A.
