It is not the intention of this book to try and teach you diagnostic skills which can only be learnt after many years of study and practice. Instead, you will learn that by studying more closely the needs of every organ and system in the body and how they can be affected by changes to our environment - both internal and external - you can understand more fully the many ways in which you can assist or hinder your attempts at regaining your health through the foods you eat and the herbs you take. The dietary health program that you will develop as you work through this book has been designed to be as flexible as possible and meet the needs of a wide range of health problems. By working with these, your diet - whether meat eater, vegetarian or vegan - will become more nutritious, more balanced, more supportive to every body system, and you will become more effective at detecting and then eliminating your symptoms. In addition, it will take you from a diet that keeps you in a below par state of health to one that can increase your energy, make you feel better, look better, and function better.So for those of you who have already tried to improve your health and been less than successful, for those of you who have run out of ideas as to how to get rid of your health problems, or for those of you who have just begun on your path to health - this book is for you.

Drink and be Damned celebrates the 100th anniversary of the start of Prohibition on January 17, 1920 by looking at an era that has often been captured in grainy black and white pictures of people like Al Capone and barrels of whisky being smashed by Prohibition agents.Over the years, this era has become romanticized as a special time in American history and the flavor of the time has been brought back to life in movies like 'The Godfather' and 'The Untouchables' and by reopening, or recreating, some of the speakeasies used at the time in cities like New York and Chicago.Dozens and dozens of books have been written about Prohibition but this book aims to take a wider look at not only some of the people and the places associated with Prohibition but how some of the events that happened in and around the time created a momentum of change that can still be felt today for not only the individual but also society as a whole both in America and around the world.If you are starting this book with the innocent eyes of a Prohibition virgin - learning about this amazing era for the first time - you might think that the thought of life without alcohol was going to be a life without light at the end of the tunnel but nothing could have been further from the truth.The 1920s was, in fact, a magical moment in the history of America for people who lived through it. These people might have been 'innocent' bystanders enjoying a drink of whisky in a speakeasy while they listened to Jazz or they might have been at the forefront of change and became icons of the time. Whoever they were, and whatever part they played, they all added an energy and excitement to a time that was also known as the Roaring Twenties or the Lawless Decade.This was a time of great social change and innovation, a theme that will be explored here, where the spirit of America and its people changed forever and the world took notice and changed with them.
