There is much folk wisdom from ancient times on how food can enhance human health. Food is also becoming an increasingly important topic in modern medicine. Combining hundreds of research results in molecular nutrition and molecular medicine, Harvard medical expert Dr. William Lee proposed the concept of "eating to gain self-healing power" and advocated full use of the power of food to deal with the increasingly common sub-health conditions and common chronic diseases of modern people.
The human body has five inherent health defense systems: angiogenesis, regeneration, microbiome, DNA protection and immunity. Bioactive compounds in many foods can enhance these systems. This book explains in detail how these five systems work and how food can help us fight disease. Dr. Li also provides a list of healthy foods in the book and teaches his original 5×5×5 diet plan, teaching you to start with choosing your favorite foods and formulate your own healthy diet plan. You can gain valuable health benefits by eating the foods you like.
