Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nutrition is a vital part of the complementary approach to health. This uniquely comprehensive and evidence-based text provides a detailed and systematic guide to the principles of clinical nutrition from a naturopathic perspective. The text begins with an overview of basic physiological principles and the body's protective systems, such as the antioxidant, detoxification and immune systems. The focus then moves to an in-depth examination of food components, including essential nutrients, such as protein, lipids, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals and trace elements, as well as nutritional bioactives, such as coenzyme Q10, alpha-lipoic acid, phytochemicals, digestive enzymes and probiotics. There is detailed information on how each food component is digested and metabolised in the body, and guidance on its impact on health, including an explanation of the effects of inadequate and excessive intake. The types of supplements available together with dietary sources are also explored. Discussions of important nutritional topics are featured - for example, water as therapy, obesity, anorexia nervosa, high-protein diets, hypoglycaemia, diabetes, phytosterols, gamma-tocopherol, vitamin E and mortality, vitamin C and cancer, infantile scurvy, acid-forming and alkaline-forming diets, hair analysis, sodium and blood pressure, and coenzyme Q10 and cancer. Summary boxes, case studies and quizzes will help readers consolidate their knowledge. Foundations of Naturopathic Nutrition is an essential reference for everyone studying nutrition from a complementary health perspective. 'I thoroughly recommend this book as a learning aid for students, and as an excellent reference guide for experienced practitioners.' - Jackie Day, President, Naturopathic Nutrition Association (UK) 'A fabulous resource, not only for practitioners but also all those with an interest in nutrition.' - Professor Alan Bensoussan, Director, National Institute of Complementary Medicine, University of Western Sydney 'The foundation nutrition text we've all been waiting for. Fay Paxton has drawn from her many years of clinical nutrition experience, combining it with relevant research-based evidence, to produce an exhaustive body of work that is unique in its specific relevance to naturopathic and complementary medicine students and practitioners.' - David Stelfox, Associate Program Leader, Naturopathy, Endeavour College of Natural Health

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATUROPATHIC PHYSICAL MEDICINE provides a philosophical naturopathic perspective, as well as practical clinical applications, for manual and physical approaches to health care. A wide range of bodywork and movement approaches and modalities are evaluated in relation to their ability to be appropriately used in naturopathic treatment and rehabilitation settings. The model of care emphasised in this text recognizes that naturopathically oriented therapeutic interventions usually focus on achieving one or all of the following: enhancement of function so that the person, system or part, can better self-regulate in response to adaptive demands; modification or removal of adaptive load factors; and symptomatic relief without creation of significant additional adaptive changes.
Download or read book Naturopathic Nutrition written by Abram Hoffer and published by Ccnm Press. This book was released on 2005-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From two leading authorities in naturopathic clinical nutrition comes this consumer-health and patient-care book, diagnosing the dangers of our modern low-fibre and high-carbohydrate diet, while prescribing an optimum diet of nutrient-rich food and supplements for better health. The authors identify the nutritional deficiencies and dependencies caused by our 'junk-food' diet that lead to malnutrition and other serious dietary diseases and disorders. They recommend a diet that is whole, alive, fresh, and varied, rather than processed, dead, stale, and monotonous. For individuals with nutrient deficiencies and dependencies, they recommend appropriate vitamin, mineral, essential fatty acid, and amino acid therapy. The book features a 12-step program for developing an individualised diet and a 30-page analysis of the nutrient content of common foods. This collaboration between Dr Abram Hoffer (MD) and Dr Jonathan Prousky (ND) offers a unique complementary and alternative approach to good nutrition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What we choose to eat is arguably the most important factor in producing and sustaining health.

Through fifty years of advocacy and patient care, this naturopathic champion wrote, collected, edited and published several thousand substantial articles on every conceivable naturopathic medical subject.

Our bodies are masters of self-healing, long verified in Physiology as 'homeostasis'. Yet, day after day thousands of unhealed men and women trudge off to doctors' offices seeking medicines to soothe their complaints. Many of these medicaments, though, have led to even greater predicaments. For hundreds of years Nature minded doctors have taught that foods and herbs, when misused, can harm, but when used appropriately will heal. Sussanna Czeranko, ND, has taken the best from this vast literature of the Lust journals and made it available for modern ND's and their patients. We can all benefit from the cumulative wisdom and pearls of the many early naturopathic doctors in these pages. Enjoy this wealth of nutritional insight. -Jonn Matsen, ND, Author of Eating Alive, Secrets To Great Health and Eating Alive II The founders of Naturopathic medicine understood that a vegetarian-based dietwas one of the cornerstones of their practice. Students and practitioners from allhealing disciplines will greatly benefit from this historical and informative text. A vegetarian diet is not a new fad but the basis of achieving optimal health and wellbeing. -Dr. Bruce Canvasser, ND, NCNM 1978 Dr. Sussanna Czeranko's Dietetics of Naturopathic Medicine dives deeply into the historical literature of our great master Naturopaths, reintroducing us to the most simple, but most important and profound, dietary rules for creating and maintaining health. Sussanna provides us with a fascinating view of how dietary evolution into the processing and chemicalization of food is what has brought us into an awful state of disease. She helps us understand that dietary logic was implemented decades ago and that the core diet suggestions from a century ago parallel, and even complement, many of the suggestions we make today as Naturopathic Physicians. -Jessica Black, ND, NCNM 2002, Author of The Anti-Inflammation Diet and Recipe Book, Co-author, Living With Crohn's And Colitis

Download or read book Principles of Naturopathic Medicine written by ND BBE Sussanna Czeranko and published by Nunm Press. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why Naturopaths do what they do is determined by a set of principles anchored in clinical experience and guided by successful clinical results. The fourth volume of the twelve volume Hevert Collection, Principles of Naturopathic Medicine, distills from a rich literature the principles that propelled the early Naturopaths to take a different path from those around them. All spoke in a unified voice, proclaiming that Nature must be respected and acknowledged, especially if healing was the objective. The human body's intelligence to restore vitality and health was a principle that the early Naturopaths knew and believed with absolute conviction. They knew that the self-regulating powers of Nature were beyond the powers of men, and that to think otherwise was simply folly, and even arrogant. Healing occurred when the body's own processes were supported rather than suppressed. They knew this. They practiced from these principles. The Hevert Collection: In Their Own Words restores to the profession an abundant literature, featuring the guiding principles of Naturopathy. Culling through this rich landscape of seminal articles, Dr. Sussanna Czeranko, ND, NUNM's Rare Book Room Curator, has lovingly and professionally created this twelve book series, reintroducing the roots of the medicine to modern Naturopaths. Richly illustrated with photographs of some article authors and advertisements for Naturopathic services, remedies, and healing principles.
