Yoland Lim's Recipes For Health And Longevity
Alternative Health Nutrition Clean Eating Asian Cuisine Vintage Cookbook Longevity & Wellness Health-Focused Recipes
Yoland Lim’s Recipes for Health and Longevity (1989 hardcover, ISBN 9780947116897) is a scarce vintage cookbook that fuses time-honoured Asian culinary wisdom with modern alternative-health science. Every page is illustrated, walking readers through easy-to-source ingredients and step-by-step techniques designed to boost immunity, balance digestion and promote lifelong vitality. Buyers searching for “clean eating Asian recipes,” “longevity diet cookbook,” or “1980s health food book” consistently rank this title near the top of collectible lists because it delivers practical kitchen know-how while staying light-years ahead of today’s wellness trends.
What makes this copy especially appealing is its tight, square binding and crisp, un-dog-eared pages—remarkable for a 35-year-old kitchen reference that was actually used. A neat previous-owner inscription on the fly-leaf and a tiny tick mark on most page edges hint at a devoted home cook who valued the recipes enough to mark progress, yet treated the book with care. The result is a gently loved copy that feels personal, not battered, and still presents beautifully on a shelf or in the kitchen workspace.
Collectors and health-minded cooks alike prize this edition for three reasons: it pre-dates the current super-food craze yet nails the same nutrient-dense principles; it offers authentic Asian flavours—think medicinal broths, antioxidant-rich teas, and low-sugar desserts—without hard-to-find ingredients; and the 1989 hardcover is now long out of print, making clean copies increasingly hard to secure. Whether you’re shopping for a functional wellness manual or a nostalgic foodie gem, Yoland Lim’s guide delivers both everyday utility and enduring collectible value.
