Nutrition, Health, And Disease : A Holistic View

The association between nutrition and health and many diseases comes from the Chinese holistic view of the human health. In addition, my parents consulted both the western-educated medical doctors and the traditional Chinese herbalists (less often) when anyone of us fell ill. My diverse background in healthful practices and use of food as preventative medicine, must also be a contributory reason for my newly found passion in the field. This book will be about the crucial and sometimes confusing role of nutrition in human health and diseases. This book, the second in a mini-series, will be suitable for a nutritional or an epidemiology course. The readership population is general. This is not just a book for epidemiology or nutrition students, but also for the man or woman in the street. It is for an adult who has taken back control of their nutrition and health (rather than staying surrendered to the whims of the food industry). These newly enlightened individuals need guidance in finding their own way in the very complex minefield of modern nutrition (food production and supply) and an environment that is growingly less healthful (mainly owing to human activity). The holistic approach to human health holds a position of worldwide significance.
