All day energy - Kathryn Marsden

This guide is by the author of "The Food Combining Diet". Marsden found that whatever illness her patients originally complained of, 92% of them mentioned tiredness. This book responds to this desire for improved stamina. It addresses the issue and provides practical advice on: the causes and reasons behind lack of energy and fatigue; high-energy and low-energy foods; getting the balance right - the ratio of acid to alkaline-forming foods; pollution - how to combat and avoid its effects; too tired to exercise - why you're not and why you should; overload - you can work hard but too many "overload points" spell danger; good tiredness and bad tiredness - iron deficiency, anaemia, post-viral syndrome, thyroid problems; stress, distress, anxiety and panic attacks - how emotional upset can bring on lethagy and exhaustion; breathing - how shallow breathing and hyperventilation produce anxiety-related tiredness; insomnia - how to improve sleeping patterns and enhance daytime energy; chronic fatigue and chronic fatigue syndrome (M.E.); vitamin, mineral and other dietary supplements; tiredness resulting from illness; hypoglcaemia; and the ten-point plan for restoring energy.
