Book excerpt: The essential guide for anyone who suffers from food allergies. Posing the urgent questions that anyone with food allergies will think to ask—and then some—Food Allergies provides practical, sensitive, and scientific guidance on the topics that affect your life. Allergy expert Scott H. Sicherer addresses the full spectrum of food allergies, from mild to life threatening and from single foods to food families, clearing up misconceptions along the way. He explores how exposure to foods can bring about an allergic response, describes the symptoms of food allergy, and illuminates how food allergies develop. Organized in an accessible Q&A format and illustrated with case studies, the book thoroughly explains how to prevent exposure to a known allergen at home, at school, in restaurants, and elsewhere. Dr. Sicherer also gives valuable advice about what to do if exposure occurs, including how to handle an anaphylactic emergency. Finally, he describes tests for diagnosing food allergies and chronic health problems caused by food allergies, such as eczema, hives, and respiratory and gastrointestinal symptoms. In this thoroughly updated new edition, Dr. Sicherer • describes new approaches to prevent food allergies • presents cutting-edge theories on risk factors for developing food allergies • describes innovative allergy tests to improve diagnosis • explains how to administer emergency medications for severe reactions • focuses on new allergens of concern, such as pink peppercorns • analyzes studies suggesting that resolution of an allergy might be predictable • talks about the role of "healthy diet" • lists additional resources, including allergy-related apps • provides revised school food allergy guidelines • offers insights into food allergy bullying—and advice to reduce it Dr. Sicherer also reviews food reactions that are not allergic (such as lactose intolerance and celiac disease), advises how to get adequate nutrition when you must avoid dietary staples, and discusses whether allergies ever go away (they do—and sometimes they return).

Book Synopsis This Is Not a Book About Benedict Cumberbatch by : Tabitha Carvan
Download or read book This Is Not a Book About Benedict Cumberbatch written by Tabitha Carvan and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why We Can’t Sleep meets Furiously Happy in this hilarious, heartfelt memoir about one woman’s midlife obsession with Benedict Cumberbatch, and the liberating power of reclaiming our passions as we age, whatever they may be. Tabitha Carvan was a new mother, at home with two young children, when she fell for the actor Benedict Cumberbatch. You know the guy: strange name, alien face, made Sherlock so sexy that it became one of the most streamed shows in the world? The force of her fixation took everyone—especially Carvan herself—by surprise. But what she slowly realized was that her preoccupation was not about Benedict Cumberbatch at all, as dashing as he might be. It was about finally feeling passionate about something, anything, again at a point in her life when she had lost touch with her own identity and sense of self. In This Is Not a Book About Benedict Cumberbatch, Carvan explores what happens to women's desires after we leave adolescence…and why the space in our lives for pure, unadulterated joy is squeezed ever smaller as we age. She shines a light onto the hidden corners of fandom, from the passion of the online communities to the profound real-world connections forged between Cumberbatch devotees. But more importantly, she asks: what happens if we simply decide to follow our interests like we used to—unabashedly, audaciously, shamelessly? After all, Carvan realizes, there’s true, untapped power in finding your “thing” (even if that thing happens to be a British-born Marvel superhero) and loving it like your life depends on it.

Book Synopsis Choose Your Foods Like Your Life Depends on Them by : Colleen Nmd Huber
Download or read book Choose Your Foods Like Your Life Depends on Them written by Colleen Nmd Huber and published by Xlibris. This book was released on 2007-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Choose your foods like your life depends on them makes you to start taking food seriously. You examine the relationship between the food you eat and the symptoms you manifest. This book gives you a challenge along with redemption: Forget everything you ate until today, and start over. The choice is between a set of foods that will nourish you and enhance your longevity on the one hand and the foods that tear you down subtly and gradually on the other. More importantly, that choice is always in front of you. You can turn around bad habits, bad choices and the resulting bad symptoms at any time. Do it now, because you're better off preserving the health you have than letting it deteriorate. Do it now, because living longer and healthier sure beats the other alternatives. Excerpt from the chapter Food as Medicine: We eat our way into our symptoms, and we can eat our way back out: "Let food be your medicine and medicine be your food." - HippocratesWe live at a strange crossroads in history. Over the last few decades, the human species has been hypnotized by the temptations offered by the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. The 1950's ushered in the "better living through chemicals" age. And we believed, and we bought and swallowed and injected and are still consuming them in massive amounts, and, most recklessly, injecting such chemicals as ethylene glycol (antifreeze), aluminum and formaldehyde into our babies as part of vaccines, without any prior safety testing. But now with massive chronic disease plaguing our most industrialized populations, autism closely following children's shots, and more pathology coincident with concentrated chemicals, we are beginning to wake up from our long post-World War II slumber. Now begins the next era when synthetic chemicals are starting to be seen as, however useful in many applications, best kept at a distance from our bodies, our homes, public spaces and wilderness. The old era of unthinking reliance on a synthetic existence is showing severe disadvantages, just as the urgency to forge new relationships with nature is becoming apparent. Plants and other whole foods are coming into their own new era as naturopathic physicians and other well-informed health practitioners rely on them for their central role in healing. Within our lifetimes, natural substances will eclipse pharmaceuticals in medical practice, as the general public awakens to its far superior healing capacity. But the pharmaceutical industry will be the slowest to catch on, just as most physicians and druggists of the early 20th century refused to believe that absence of certain nutrients could bring on such horrible diseases as scurvy, pellagra and beriberi. Then as now, allopaths were eager to lay blame for these diseases on microbes, until . . . oops! limes cured the "limey" British sailors of their scurvy, and we saw that Vitamin B3 prevented pellagra, while Vitamin B1 prevented beriberi and Vitamin D prevented rickets. As usual, conventional medicine corrects itself long after the natural physicians are already healing patients. In fact, evidence now shows that even bubonic plague, which allopathy still attributes exclusively to bacteria known as Yersinia pestis, was more likely to strike those with low Vitamin C intakes and those who did not eat garlic. What would possess a person to think that food could possibly be medicine? Our first clue is the structure of our intestines. Whatever comes into the mouth later travels through miles of efficient tubing that extracts certain molecules from the food we eat, then converts them to one common molecule, Acetyl Co-A, from which the building blocks of the body are then made: protein, glucose and (healthy-type) fats. The intestines are great little machines, but not omnipotent. That is, they can convert food molecules to Acetyl Co-A, because food has familiar and malleable combinations of carbon,
Book Synopsis How to Read the Bible (as If Your Life Depends on It) by : Michael Youssef
Download or read book How to Read the Bible (as If Your Life Depends on It) written by Michael Youssef and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2023-11-07 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As fewer Christians read the Bible daily, fewer understand what a marvelous revelation it is from God to man. How to Read the Bible (as If Your Life Depends on It) offers believers and nonbelievers alike a new appreciation for the Bible, helping them to read it for understanding, not just as the storybook they remember from childhood. There is no other book like the Bible. God used at least forty human writers over more than 1,600 years to compost the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testaments.They included kings and shepherds, a physician and a tax collector. They lived on three continents—Europe, Asia, and Africa. Yet the Bible is a single Book with a single Author, focused on a single theme: Jesus the Messiah, our Redeemer. From beginning to end, the Bible tells the story of the Kingdom of God and its King. The Old Testament tells us He is coming. The New Testament announces that He has arrived. The sixty-six books of the Bible do not tell sixty-six stories. Together they tell one story. It’s the story of humanity’s rebellion against God and God’s redemptive love for the human race. It’s the story of a Kingdom and a Covenant, of one Lord who saves completely and rules eternally. The unity of the Bible confounds human wisdom. The unity of the Bible baffles its critics. The unity of the Bible challenges its enemies. There’s no book like this Book because there’s no author like its Author.
Book Synopsis Heaven Between Her Thighs 2 by : Denora Boone
Download or read book Heaven Between Her Thighs 2 written by Denora Boone and published by Sullivan Group Publishing. This book was released on 2016-07-06 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chey can’t believe this is her life. Everything she fought so hard for in her relationship seemed to come to a crashing halt once the revelations of Qyree’s family were out in the open. From his mother dropping the news that she was HIV positive to Jaxon removing Qy from the family business, all Chey wanted to do was be there for her man. But the secret that she was now hiding could very well cause even more damage and possibly be the end of her happily ever after. Just when he thought God was giving him a chance to become a better man, Qyree is hit with news that rocks his world to the core and causing him to let go of the one thing that was keeping him sane, Chey. Qyree knew that the way he had reacted towards the only person who had his heart in their hands wasn’t right but he didn’t know of any other way to deal with it except the way his father had taught him. Protect himself and just let everyone else figure it out on their own. It wasn’t right but what could he do? It isn’t until his mother falls ill and even more secrets are out that cause him to really take a look at the man that he saw in the mirror. Would these new twists cause him to finally stand up and be a man or had Jaxon tainted him for life? Von is finally in a place of happiness. She has her son back, her own place, and the demons from her past have been dealt with so what else could a woman want? Love. That aching in her heart to have someone to spend the rest of her life with and love her unconditionally wasn’t possible in her condition. So instead of sitting around and sulking she decided that she would do what she could to mend the relationship between Qyree and Chey. She just hoped that once Qy found out about her secret it brought them closer instead of further apart. Channing “Tank” Reeves is the epitome of a ladies man. Recently discharged from the military, he’s back home to help his cousin start the business they had both dreamed of since they were little boys. Working so closely with Qy it was only a matter of time before he would run into the pretty young thing Von. As soon as he set eyes on her he knew that she was the one and because of her honesty he was drawn to her even more. But what will happen once his secrets are out in the open? Would she still look at him the same? The Bible says that life and death are in the power of the tongue but the same thing can be said about the heaven between a woman’s thighs. A woman can give life from her scared place but if you’re not careful it can also be the death of you.

Now, after learning that she is still alive and captive, he and his remaining family struggle to survive and rescue her.
