Be A Nutritional Sleuth Understanding Your Body's Messages: With special guest Jim McAfee, ThM, CCN

Be a Nutritional Sleuth, Understanding Your Body's Messages

An interview with Elizabeth Lipski, PhD, CCN and Jim McAfee, ThM, CCN, author of Your Bodys Sign Language

Jim McAfee has been described as the Sherlock Holmes of Nutrition. His investigations throw light on the causes and contributions to the epidemic of degenerative diseases that plague the lives of so many today. A common denominator he has discovered in his work is a startling lack of understanding in the relationship between food intake and the onset of physical or emotional deterioration. He feels that such ignorance has today reached an epidemic level. Far too many people rely upon pharmaceutical companies, the insurance industry, food processors, and the government to protect them and provide for their health care.

Paying attention to the body's sign language helps individuals to take charge of their own health and intervene effectively when signs of degeneration are detected. Jim McAfee teaches how to identify nutritional messages conveyed by the body through the skin, eyes, teeth and other body parts, and he discusses differences between men and women. His emphasis is on how we can easily train our powers of observation to detect changes and do something about them, before they become problems. Jim McAfee is one of the nation's leading Clinical Nutritionists and a member of the Scientific Council of the International and American Associations of Clinical Nutritionists. He has worked as Director of Nutritional Research for Image Awareness Wellness Institute since 1974.
