The Self-Healing Cookbook: Whole Foods To Balance Body, Mind and Moods
| Author | Kristina Turner |
| ISBN | 0945668155 |
This was too "out there" for me. It's kind of new-agey with guided visualization and smelling your produce to see if it tells you that it's okay to eat and that your body wants that particular piece of fruit. It does have some sound nutrition principles which I agree with such as eating more complex carbohydrates...

Integrative Nutrition: Feed Your Hunger for Health and Happiness
