Nutritionist Judy Stone Says Diet More Effective Than Drugs for Most Chronic Illness

ANN ARBOR, Mich.--(Business Wire)--
Nutritionist Judy Stone says most chronic conditions can be
prevented, improved, or even reversed through the proper diet, without
taking medication. Stone is author of Take Two Apples and Call Me in
the Morning: Using the Power of Food to Change Your Life
(www.taketwoapples.com). Stone is president of Nutrition Magician.

"Even the Harvard Health Newsletter (April 2008) has come around
to trumpeting the drug-free triumvirate of diet, exercise and
lifestyle changes," says Stone. "Unfortunately, they avoid
wholeheartedly advocating a change of course in healthcare, citing
patients' lack of initiative, the convenience of taking a drug, and
the forces of pharmaceutically driven medical care."

The book tells readers how to use diet and nutrition to address
common ailments, such as diabetes, hormone imbalances, bone loss,
depression, weight loss, and inflammation leading to heart disease and
many other problems.

In her nutrition practice, Stone sees many clients who have
noticed their health erode slowly over time, not realizing that the
primary causes are poor diet and medications. According to Stone,
"People tend to see each new symptom as a unique problem requiring
treatment, instead of realizing that the body is an entire system
suffering from nutritional deficiencies, many induced by drugs. Our
bodies are designed to repair and regenerate. Given the right
nutrition, they can do this quite effectively."

Take Two Apples and Call Me in the Morning has been hailed by
readers as "user friendly," "practical and informative," and "one of
the best books on nutrition." It gently guides readers from
understanding their bodies to feeding them, with menus, shopping
guides, and over 100 delicious recipes. Action plans to address
specific situations are included.

Stone, a former psychotherapist, runs a nutritional health clinic
in Ann Arbor. With a long-standing interest in health and cooking, she
changed careers after discovering the powerful impact dietary changes
had on clients with depression. She has been quoted in Woman's Day,
Cooking Light, Better Homes and Gardens, Delicious, Remedy and other
print media, and has been a guest on national and local radio talk
shows.

Take Two Apples and Call Me in the Morning is available for $22.95
through Barnes and Noble, amazon.com or taketwoapples.com.
