“Mind over matter" is not a trite phrase. Your moods, your temperament, your very thoughts can and do affect digestion.
Are you overweight-or underweight? Appearances, even the scales, are not always reliable. Your age, your gender, the kind of work you do-all these factors determine whether your weight is correct or wrong for you. Do you know that some people suffer from food allergies? Learn these interesting facts, and how your digestion may be affected even hours after you have eaten.
The author of this book, Dr. Stanley K. Clark was for several years staff physician at the Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit. He was a noted gastroenterologist (specialist in stomach and intestinal disorders.) He brings you his wealth of knowledge in this field, plus his additional findings from his study of the effects of the mind upon digestion.
What to Eat And When is compact, free from unnecessary technical terminology. Includes complete handy index, food chart, and sample menus.
Easy read, although a little dated. I would recommend for anyone wanting to learn to eat healthy and understand how our thoughts and emotions impact our digestion.
While much of the advice in this short tune is timeless and useful, much of what the writer says is dated. This book offers some sound nutritional advice, but is more interesting as a cultural and historica lartifact.
This short book details the process of digestion of foods. It not only covers the physical process but how our emotional, mental and psychic states can affect the digestion. The book is to the point and quite short (59 pages). It is very readable and does not use much medical jargon.
