Product Description
Natures cycles affect not only the external climate, but also our internal health and mental well-being. With this as its primary tenet, STAYING HEALTHY WITH THE SEASONS revolutionized the fields of preventive and integrated medicine when it was first published in 1981, and introduced a seasonal approach to nutrition, disease prevention, and mind-and-body fitness. A leading practitioner of the season-based lifestyle theory, Dr. Elson Haas provides simple, logical advice for achieving glowing good health: Bring the mind and body into balance with the earth, and consume a diet that emphasizes in-season, chemical-free foods. Joining Western and Eastern medicines with seasonal nutrition, herbology, and exercise practices, this timeless classic, revised for the 21st century, provides the keys to staying healthy from spring right on through winter.

 Getting well and Staying Healthy August 13, 2008
Jane C. Groff (Fresno, CA)
If you are tired of being prescribed another "pill" for every symptom and are more interested in finding the source of your health problems instead, this is a must-read. Every person interested in living healthy lives will benefit by this book. I really liked all the many illustrations and margin quotes and notes i.e. Stanley Burrough's Master Cleanser, a recipe for detoxing. It goes into great depth on healing and better health with proper nutrition. It can be read during the current season instead of all at once. While it has exercises and a few recipes,I recommend buying the book "A Cookbook for all Seasons" and "The Detox Diet" by the same author.
 Not a handy book January 3, 2008

Very disappointed- I was looking for something that would be helpful and it is not, unless one fully follows Chinese medicine. The book is time consuming for the small and questionable amount of information that one can glean out of the whole.
Quite an interesting and thorough book November 29, 2007

I owned this book years ago, but then misplaced it. My massage therapist let me borrow hers, and then I reordered this book. It explains all four season and what to do to take care of yourself each season. It's quite informative. Most of the reading in here is holistic, meaning no diet tricks, just great advice on organic eating, preventive medicine, a whole body approach to staying healthy. This is part of my permanent library.

I truly agree with the review written by M. Savoie "waxnwane" (Bound Brook, NJ USA).
I add that this book is like an owner's manual for the human body. I, too, went to a Holistic Massage School, and I thank the powers that be that I got this book from them! I am learning things from this book that I have not found (written or spoken) anywhere else.
I specifically like the "Anatomy of the Meridians: The Chi Flow Clock" on pg. 28. It illustrates what organ is active or passive at corresponding times of the day/night. I have never seen this information anywhere else.
It is easy to use, and most of the ingredients can be found in your local grocery store (for the cleanses). I keep this book in plain site in my home, and anyone who asks me gets overwhelmed by my response.
If you buy no other "health" book than this one, you have purchased the best one! Someone had to do it .... THANK YOU ELSON M. HAAS for writing this book!!!!
