A unique blend of dietary world wisdom, The Seasonal Detox
Diet provides readers with a dynamic program for using
healing fasts to detoxify, tone, and restore the body for
optimum energy and performance. Traditional cultures
worldwide have wisely followed the art of eating according
to the natural rhythms of the changing seasons. Keeping the
body in peak condition requires occasional fasts, periods of
rest for the body's hard-working systems. Today, faced with
exposure to an increasing array of chemicals, additives, and
pesticides, our bodies need these healing respites more than
ever. Unlike modern notions of fasting, Carrie L'Esperance's
concept of this practice emphasizes dietary alteration
rather than abstinence. She offers recipes designed around
seasonal changes and geared toward individual health
concerns, including fatigue, digestive disturbances, and
excess weight gain. You will increase your energy levels,
aid digestion, revitalize your skin, and cleanse your
internal organs with a rich variety of delicious recipes
from Banana Coconut Ice Cream and Big Scene Salsa Salad to
Curry Potato Salad with Kidney Beans and Japanese Soba
Noodles with Sesame Miso Sauce. The author also includes
instructions for healing herbal baths and cleansers to round
out your home healing program.
