Staying Healthy With Nutrition: The Complete Guide to Diet and Nutritional Medicine

Nutrition Health & Wellness Alternative Medicine Holistic Health Diet Therapy Natural Medicine Medical Reference

Staying Healthy With Nutrition: The Complete Guide to Diet and Nutritional Medicine is the 1992 blockbuster reference that alternative-health seekers still hunt for in the 1,200-page first-edition paperback. Author Elson M. Haas, M.D.—a pioneer of integrative medicine—distills decades of clinical practice into one encyclopedic volume that covers everything from the chemistry of individual vitamins to full therapeutic diets for asthma, arthritis, heart disease, and fatigue. At 235 mm tall and nearly 1.7 kg, it’s built like a textbook, yet written in plain English that teenagers, culinary students, and wellness-minded parents can all follow.

Buyers love this copy because it has been gently personalised: a careful reader highlighted only twelve pages, so the bulk of the text remains crisp and unmarked. The binding is still tight, no ex-library stamps or odors, and every chart, shopping list, and detox menu is completely legible. That makes it ideal for the student who wants a clean study copy or the practitioner who needs a desk reference that opens flat and stays open while formulating meal plans.

What keeps this 1992 Celestial Arts edition in demand is its unique blend of old-school nutritional science and time-tested holistic protocols. Haas explains acid–alkaline balance, food-combining, elimination diets, and safe supplement dosing in the same chapters where he teaches macro-nutrient ratios and glycemic index—information many modern “quick guides” leave out. Whether you’re reversing candida, supporting thyroid health, or simply learning to read a label like a nutritionist, this single book replaces a shelf of smaller titles.
