Book of the Week: Prescription for Nutritional Healing by Phyllis Balch

Via: Prescription for Nutritional Healing.net



In the United States for example; health care accounted for over 17% of America's Gross Domestic Product (the GDP is an account of how financially healthy a nation is, determined by the consumer price index). That 2.5 trillion dollars spent on medical care had a positive effect on the economy but not a positive effect on your well-being. What does this say about a nation that continually seeks profit at the expense of it's own citizens?

A pioneer in the field of nutritional healing, Phyllis Balch passionately and meticulously researched and compiled this groundbreaking book entitled Prescription for Nutritional Healing. Now, a generation later, her message has more relevance than ever: consume fresh foods, avoid processed foods and those high in saturated fat, and optimize your intake of essential nutrients with the right supplements. Considered the book on alternative healing and preventive therapies and it's become an authority on vitamins, supplements, and herbs.

In the twenty years since the first edition was published, the natural health movement has gone mainstream. With more than 800 pages of comprehensive facts about all aspects of alternative way to wellness, Prescription for Nutritional Healing unites the best of age-old remedies, twenty-first-century science, and today's emerging health news.

The American Health Care Debate: tensions flare all across the nation

This lady is lucky she did not get the taste slapped out of her mouth, cause that is exactly what he wanted to do. Notice how some random guys gather around to prevent the smack down.

Just because a country elects a smart president doesn’t make it a smart country

Before I go about demonstrating how, sadly, easy it is to prove the dumbness dragging down America, let me just say that ignorance has life and death consequences. On the eve of the Iraq War, 69% of Americans thought Saddam Hussein was personally involved in 9/11. Four years later, 34% still did. Or take the health care debate America is presently having: members of Congress have recessed now so they can go home and “listen to their constituents.” An urge they should resist because their constituents don’t know anything. At a recent town-hall meeting in South Carolina, a man stood up and told his Congressman to “keep your government hands off my Medicare,” which is kind of like driving cross country to protest highways.

I’m the bad guy for saying it’s a stupid country, yet polls show that a majority of Americans cannot name a single branch of government, or explain what the Bill of Rights is. 24% could not name the country America fought in the Revolutionary War. More than two-thirds of Americans don’t know what’s in Roe v. Wade. Two-thirds don’t know what the Food and Drug Administration does. Some of this stuff you should be able to pick up simply by being alive. You know, like the way the Slumdog kid knew about cricket.

Below is a video proving my point...I rest my case!!!
