I ka makahiki 1973, i ka manawa he kanaka noiʻi ʻo Gordon ma ka National Institute of Mental Health a hoʻomaka ʻo ia e lilo i mea hoihoi i ka lāʻau lapaʻau ʻē aʻe, ua hālāwai ʻo ia me ka Indian osteopath Sheima Singh, he naturopath, herbalist, acupuncturist, homeopath a meditator. Ua lilo ʻo ia i alakaʻi no Gordon i ka palena o ka ho'ōla. Me ia, ua hoʻomākaukau ʻo ia i nā kīʻaha i pā i kona ʻono, hoʻokiʻekiʻe i kona pae ikaika a me kona ʻano. ʻO ka noʻonoʻo hanu wikiwiki i aʻo ʻia e Singha ma nā mauna ʻĀina i hoʻokuke iā ia mai kona makaʻu a me kona huhū.
Akā ma hope koke iho o ka hālāwai ʻana me Sheim, ua ʻeha ʻo Gordon i ke kua. Hāʻawi nā Orthopedists i nā wānana weliweli a hoʻomākaukau iā ia no kahi hana, ʻoiaʻiʻo, ʻaʻole ia i makemake. No ka minamina, ua kāhea ʻo ia iā Sheima.
"E ʻai i ʻekolu pineapples i ka lā a ʻaʻohe mea ʻē aʻe no hoʻokahi pule," wahi āna.
Ua manaʻo mua ʻo Gordon ua hewa ke kelepona, a laila ua pupule ʻo ia. Ua haʻi hou ʻo ia i kēia a wehewehe ʻo ia e hoʻohana ana i nā loina o ka lāʻau lapaʻau Kina. Hana ka Pineapple i nā puʻupaʻa, i pili i ke kua. ʻAʻole kūpono iā Gordon ia manawa, akā ua hoʻomaopopo ʻo ia ua ʻike ʻo Shayma i nā mea he nui i ʻike ʻole ʻia e Gordon a me ka poʻe orthopedist. A ʻaʻole makemake ʻo ia e hele i ka hana.
ʻO ka mea kupanaha, ua hana wikiwiki ka pineapple. Ua manaʻo ʻo Sheima ma hope mai e ʻoki i ka gluten, ka waiu, ke kō, ka ʻiʻo ʻulaʻula, a me nā meaʻai i hana ʻia e hoʻopau i ka maʻi allergies, ka hānō, a me ka eczema. Ua hana pū kēia.
Mai ia manawa, ua koi ʻia ʻo Gordon e hoʻohana i ka meaʻai i lāʻau lapaʻau. Ua aʻo koke ʻo ia i nā haʻawina ʻepekema e kākoʻo ana i ka mana therapeutic o nā lāʻau lapaʻau kuʻuna a manaʻo i ka pono e hoʻopau a hōʻemi paha i nā meaʻai i lilo i mea nui o ka meaʻai maʻamau o ʻAmelika. Ua hoʻomaka ʻo ia e kuhikuhi i ka lāʻau lapaʻau meaʻai no kāna mau maʻi lapaʻau a me ka psychiatric.
I nā makahiki 1990 mua, ua hoʻoholo ʻo Gordon ʻo ka manawa kēia e aʻo ai ma Georgetown Medical School. Ua noi ʻo ia i kāna hoa hana mai ka Center for Medicine and the Mind, ʻo Susan Lord, e hui pū me ia. No ka hoʻohanohano ʻana iā Hippocrates, nāna i hoʻokumu i ka ʻōlelo, ua kapa lākou i kā mākou papa ʻo "Food as Medicine" a ua lilo koke ia i mea kaulana i nā haumāna lapaʻau.
Ua hoʻāʻo nā haumāna i nā meaʻai e hoʻopau i ke kō, ka pulupulu, ka waiu, nā mea hoʻohui meaʻai, ka ʻiʻo ʻulaʻula a me ka caffeine. He nui ka poʻe i emi iho ka hopohopo a ʻoi aku ka ikaika, ua hiamoe lākou a ua aʻo maikaʻi a maʻalahi hoʻi.
I kekahi mau makahiki ma hope mai, ua hana ʻo Gordon lāua ʻo Lord i kahi mana hoʻonui o kēia papa i loaʻa i nā kumu lapaʻau āpau, nā kauka, nā limahana mālama ola, a me nā mea makemake e hoʻomaikaʻi i kā lākou meaʻai. He maʻalahi a maʻalahi nā kumu kumu o "Food as Medicine", a hiki i kekahi ke ho'āʻo e hahai iā lākou.
E ʻai e like me kāu polokalamu genetic, ʻo ia hoʻi, e like me nā kūpuna hunter-gatherer
ʻAʻole kēia manaʻo e hahai pono ʻoe i ka ʻai paleo, akā e nānā pono i nā ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo i hāʻawi ʻia. E noʻonoʻo i kāu meaʻai meaʻai holoʻokoʻa no nā meaʻai me nā meaʻai liʻiliʻi loa a ʻaʻohe kō i hoʻohui ʻia. ʻO ia hoʻi ke ʻano o ka ʻai ʻana i ka liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi (ʻaʻole ʻae kekahi poʻe i ka palaoa a i ʻole nā palaoa ʻē aʻe), a liʻiliʻi a ʻaʻole hoʻi i ka waiu.
E hoʻohana i nā meaʻai, ʻaʻole nā mea hoʻohui, e mālama a pale i ka maʻi maʻi
Loaʻa i nā meaʻai holoʻokoʻa kekahi mau mea e hana synergistically a hiki ke ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ma mua o nā mea hoʻohui e hāʻawi hoʻokahi wale nō. No ke aha e lawe ai i ka lycopene antioxidant ikaika i loko o ka pila inā hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻai i kahi tōmato i loaʻa i ka lycopene a me kekahi mau antioxidants ʻē aʻe, me nā huaora, nā minela a me nā meaʻai ʻē aʻe e hana pū ana e pale i ka maʻi puʻuwai, hoʻohaʻahaʻa i ka cholesterol a me nā pae lipid, a hoʻopau i nā mea ʻino. koko koko?
E ʻai e hōʻemi i ke kaumaha a aʻo hou e pili ana i kāu mea e ʻai ai
ʻO ke koʻikoʻi ke keʻakeʻa a keʻakeʻa i kēlā me kēia ʻano o ka ʻai ʻana a me ka hāʻawi ʻana i nā meaʻai kūpono. Paʻakikī ka poʻe i koʻikoʻi ke kōkua i nā meaʻai olakino. E aʻo e ʻai mālie, e hoʻonui i kou leʻaleʻa i ka ʻai ʻana. ʻAi wikiwiki ka hapa nui o mākou a ʻaʻohe manawa e hoʻopaʻa inoa i nā hōʻailona o ka ʻōpū ua piha mākou. Eia kekahi, ʻo ka ʻai mālie e kōkua iā ʻoe e koho i kēlā mau meaʻai āu e makemake ai ʻaʻole wale nō, akā ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi no ke olakino.
E hoʻomaopopo ʻo mākou a pau, e like me ka mea biochemist Roger Williams i ʻike ai he 50 mau makahiki i hala aku nei, ʻokoʻa biochemically.
Hiki iā mākou ke like me ka makahiki a me ka lāhui, loaʻa ke kūlana olakino like loa, lāhui a me ka loaʻa kālā, akā makemake paha ʻoe i ka B6 ma mua o kāu hoaaloha, akā makemake paha kāu hoaaloha i 100 mau manawa ʻoi aku ka zinc. I kekahi manawa pono paha mākou i kauka, meaʻai meaʻai, a meaʻai meaʻai paha e holo i nā hoʻokolohua kikoʻī a paʻakikī e hoʻoholo ai i kā mākou mea e pono ai. Hiki iā mākou ke aʻo i nā mea he nui e pili ana i ka mea maikaʻi no mākou ma ka hoʻokolohua ʻana i nā meaʻai a me nā meaʻai like ʻole, e nānā pono i nā hopena.
E ʻimi i kahi loea e kōkua iā ʻoe e hoʻomaka i ka mālama ʻana i ka maʻi maʻi ma o ka hoʻoponopono ʻana i ke kaumaha (a me ka hoʻoikaika kino) ma mua o ka lāʻau lapaʻau
Ma waho aʻe o nā kūlana hoʻoweliweli, he koho noʻonoʻo a olakino kēia. ʻO nā antacids prescription, type XNUMX mau lāʻau maʻi diabetes, a me nā antidepressants, nā ʻumi miliona o ʻAmelika e hoʻohana ai e hōʻemi i ka reflux acid, hoʻohaʻahaʻa i ke koko koko, a hoʻomaikaʻi i ke ʻano, e pili ana i nā hōʻailona wale nō, ʻaʻole nā kumu. A loaʻa pinepine lākou i nā hopena ʻino loa. Ma hope o ka nānā pono ʻana a me ke koho ʻana i ka lāʻau lapaʻau non-pharmacological, e like me ka mea e pono ai, ʻaʻole pono lākou.
Mai lilo ʻoe i mea ʻai meaʻai
E hoʻohana i kēia mau alakaʻi (a me nā mea ʻē aʻe i koʻikoʻi iā ʻoe), akā, mai hōʻeha ʻoe iā ʻoe iho no ka haʻalele ʻana iā lākou. E nānā wale i ka hopena o ke koho kānalua, aʻo, a hoʻi i kāu papahana. Mai hoʻopau i kou manawa a me kou ikaika i ka ʻai ʻana o kekahi! E hoʻomāʻewaʻewa wale ʻoe, a e hoʻonui i kou koʻikoʻi, kahi e hōʻino hou ai i kāu digestion. ʻAʻole kēia e lawe mai iā ʻoe a i kēia poʻe i kekahi mea maikaʻi.
