English Summary/英文概要: Two-thirds of Americans and British people are overweight these days - a huge amount of concern for themselves as for the governments of both countries. As people are becoming more aware of the impact their food choices have on their lives and health there is much we can learn from Asian cultures. One of the fathers of Chinese Medicine wrote, ‘In cases of disease and disorder, the physician should first address the diet and lifestyle’. Many of us have lost the connection between what we put in our bodies and how they function. This book will pull the curtain back and educate readers about the daily effect that their food choices have on their bodies. In this era of fad diets, detox programmes, and ‘super-foods’, Jason Bussell presents the simple principles of The Asian Diet - balance and moderation. There are no ‘super-foods’. All foods are good when eaten in the right proportions. This book helps you to make the right food choices for losing excess weight, improving your energy and mood and living a longer and healthier life. The reader will discover just how much of what they have been told about ‘healthy eating’ is actually incorrect.
