Today it's time for another edition of the Food Heals book Club. It's been awhile since have done one of these so to remind you this is where I read chapters from my book, Food Heals: Physical, Emotional, and Spiritual Stories to Nourish Your Soul and Transform Your Health. And if you haven't read the book, it's like an anthology of Food Heals stories similar to Chicken Soup For The Soul. I put together a collection of healing stories with the intention to inspire readers that the body is designed to heal itself if given the tools that it needs to do so! On today's episode we've got chapters 18-21: Chapter 18: Why Ulcerative Colitis is The Best Thing That Happened to Me By Vince Lia Chapter 19: Dying to Be Pretty: Healing from Breast Implant Illness and Putting Health Before Vanity By Christina Roulund Chapter 20: Food Heals The Soul Marina Yanay-Triner Chapter 21: Healing Our Body By Healing Our Soul Kristie Reeves About Food Heals: Witnessing her mother and father — in short succession — lose their lives to cancer, Allison Melody endured significant trauma in her 20s. Why did their bodies fail them? Why did the doctors have no answers? This tragic loss instilled in Allison an unwavering passion for nutrition and propelled her into the world of holistic health and healing. She vowed to honor her parents' memory by dedicating her life to finding a way to heal the body naturally. After interviewing hundreds who have healed themselves of chronic and degenerative diseases for her film Powered By Plants and podcast Food Heals, Allison now firmly believes that the body has the ability to heal itself when given the tools it needs to do so. The intimate and uplifting true stories in this book are a must-read for anyone who is dealing with disease, stress, or any health imbalance and is looking for motivation, education, and inspiration to take their physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being into their own hands. If you are enjoying listening to these stories and you'd like to get a physical copy of the book into your hands, or as a gift for a loved one who may be struggling with their health right now, you can get the book on Amazon or at www.foodhealsnation.com/book. And when I am done recording these stories for you, Food Heals Nation, then the book will be available on Audible as well! Thank you for being a part of this beautiful journey with me!
