during my travel to taiwan one year, i got my hands on a series of 4 books on vegetables and fruits healing by the great ancient chinese master of healing - hua tuo. hua tuo is a famous physician
of the Han Dynasty. he is like the God of chinese medicine. for hua tuo info, i found a few links: http://www.taijichinesemedicine.com/huatuo.htm, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hua_Tuo, http://www.itmonline.org/arts/huatuo.htm,
so i got these books, i don't think it's been translated into english, reading about all the amazing info, how can i not share?
they are interesting in a way it's very specific in portions and time of day to have certain vegetable or fruit, i guess it works according to the "chi" (energy flow) of the human body. remember, these are all fruits and vegetables, so don't freak out thinking it's something that is from outer space!
so i will be adding to this section as i translate, i hope this best kept nature's ancient secrets and info will be useful to you:
