The Secrets to Healing, Resilience and Immunity With the Most
Powerful Natural Medicine in History From the bestselling author of
Keto Diet Long before the first pharmaceutical companies opened
their doors in the 1850s, doctors treated people, not symptoms. And
although we've become used to popping pills, patients have finally
had it with the dangerous side effects, addiction and
over-prescribing - and they're desperate for an alternative. Here's
the good news: that alternative has been here all along in the form
of ancient treatments used for eons in traditional Chinese,
Ayurvedic and Greek medicine. Ancient Remedies for Modern Life is
the first comprehensive layman's guide that will bring together and
explain to the masses the very best of these time-tested practices.
Bestselling author Dr. Axe explores the foundational concepts of
ancient healing - eating right for your type and living in sync
with your circadian clock. Readers will learn how traditional
practitioners identified the root cause of each patient's illness,
then treated it with medicinal herbs, mushrooms, CBD, essential
oils and restorative mind-body practices. What's more, they'll
discover how they can use these ancient treatments themselves to
cope with dozens of diseases, from ADHD to diabetes,
hypothyroidism, autoimmune disease and beyond. Through engaging
language and accessible explanations, Ancient Remedies for Modern
Life offers readers everything they need to know about getting, and
staying, healthy - without toxic, costly synthetic drugs.
