How Not To Die, Revised & Updated (CHES)

This course is only for CHES practitioners. Traditional medicine is good at treating acute illnesses, but not chronic diseases. This book has a wealth of nutrition science. The author, Michael Greger, MD, maintains a huge database of nutrition studies for his website, NutritionFacts.org, and this book condenses that data into healthy eating guidelines. The book has 147 pages of evidence-based references that support his recommendations behind the diet that prevents and reverses the 15 leading causes of disease-related death. Quotes: We strive to make the best of our lives by maintaining our physical health and mental happiness. As food is the fuel for our survival, how healthily we survive and how well we recover from illness may also depend on what we eat. Michael Greger’s How Not to Die suggests different preventative and curative measures for tackling ailments we are all vulnerable to. I hope that this book may help those who are susceptible to illnesses that can be prevented with proper nutrition. ― His Holiness the Dalai Lama The primary determinant of our health and well-beings: what we eat and how we live.
