  • You want recipes and meal plans spelled out step-by-step rather than understanding the principles behind them

About this book

Dr. Thomas Rau, a physician known for biological medicine, shares the health approach used at his Paracelsus Clinic in the Swiss Alps, where patients have sought treatment for nearly 50 years. His diet-based program aims to rejuvenate clients and prevent or treat illness. Rau's Swiss health plan is grounded in medical research and designed to purify the body, regulate pH balance, strengthen the immune system, encourage healing, and prevent illness. According to the book, the program has been shown to reduce or eliminate accumulated toxins, address chronic conditions including allergies, arthritis, and diabetes, support weight loss, and promote overall well-being and energy.
