Overview

In this singular book, Ana M. Negrón, MD explains how our human body is put together, what nourishes it, and lays out the best ways to maintain it. She encourages us to look behind the curtains of authority, to glean the facts from independent sources, and to arm ourselves with truths. As in her first book, Nourishing the Body and Recovering Health, she urges the reader to reevaluate our dependence on pharmaceuticals and supplements. With a papaya, a horse, theatrical drama, a Scrabble game, and a keyboard, this book guides us from the molecular to the universal with ease and clarity. For fifty years the author has watched the pervasive conflicts of interests within our social, political and health systems entrap one and all. Negrón grants the reader a peek into the unique weekly reunions she holds in her home. Anecdotes from her community add a note of compassion. Practical suggestions, recipe templates, and color plates are included. Nutrition is too important for you to eat a particular food, or stop eating a particular food, just based on hearsay. After you read this book, asking informed, probing questions to improve your own health might become your new superpower. The author originally wrote We Create Health One Truth at a Time (Creamos salud una verdad a la vez) in Spanish. She translated it into English without the use of AI (artificial intelligence).
