This comprehensive Edgar Cayce diet and nutrition guide is your road map to better health. Edgar Cayce, the world's best-documented psychic, emphasized the biblical view of the body as temple for the spirit. He gave thousands of readings addressing health and nutrition. Nourishing the Body Temple provides a complete overview of the principles of healthy eating, synthesized from the Cayce readings by a professional nutritionist who explains them from the perspective of modern nutritional science.

The book addresses a wide range of topics, including enzymes, pH balance, vitamins, minerals, food combining, vegetarian diet, and medicinal foods.

The book also gives you concise health information on topics such as:

• fruits, vegetables, and juicing
• raw food power
• seasonings, sweeteners, and beverages
• meat and dairy products
• fats and oils
• sea vegetables and herbs
• preserving nutrients in the cooking process
• balancing body weight
• boosting immunity with nutrition
  

A section of the book addresses the use of foods and supplements for nutritional needs during pregnancy and lactation, as well as for babies, young children, and teens.
