About this book
Billions of dollars are poured into developing medicines to cure our ailments, allergies, and inflammations. However, sometimes these medications don't work right away or at all. What if it's not a drug alone that can heal us, but also what we eat?
In her first book, Emmie Cohen chronicles her long struggle with moderate to severe acne and her eventual realization that the root cause of her acne was from her gut and her diet. Ultimately, the reader should see this book as a tool to help them become more educated about the science of how our bodies interact with the foods we eat.
How Food Heals: A Look Into Food as Medicine for Our Physical and Mental Health is about understanding and adopting a new mindset. Cohen strives to normalize the idea that food can heal us, while reminding the reader that this process takes time and is highly individualized.
How Food Heals speaks to curious and driven individuals who want to explore food as medicine in a new way.
