Beat Chronic Disease
F. Brown
This is a brilliant, easy-to-read guide to functional nutrition, also known as functional medicine. It is informative and upbeat and is divided into two parts: the first explains the main elements of the functional approach with plenty of inspiring case studies and the second looks thoroughly at diet as the key tool in recovering good health. It covers how to do an elimination diet, how to reintroduce troublesome foods and how to create a sustainable lifelong healthy-eating plan.
Getting to the root of chronic disease with functional nutrition means recognising that we are all bio-chemically different and unique, and therefore the causes of our illnesses, although they may have the same name, are also different and unique, and need to be treated as such.
This book is empowering in its tone and generous in the solutions it offers, including delicious recipes, resources for home testing, symptom charts and diet plans, as well as references to other practitioners in the field. In effect, Fleur gives us many of the basic tools we need to try out a holistic and functional approach to healing, whilst gently reminding us that good health cannot depend on the use of medication to suppress and manage our symptoms in the longer term.
If you are someone that feels they have tried everything to get well, then this might be the book for you. It is up-to-date, concise, gets to the root of the matter and genuinely embodies a person-centred approach, as opposed to a disease-centred approach to chronic illness.
