      Holistic medicine is based on the principal that Nature created the
human body in perfect balance and that sickness is the result of
interference with the equilibrium due to inappropriate nourishment. Nature's
food supply furnishes the elements that would restore the balanced
co-ordination of the various bodily functions. What is good for the body is
medicine and at the same time food. The
food nutrient in relation to health and diseases must meet the requirments
as a Resistance Builder, Repair Agent and a Recovery product to build sturdy
minds and bodies in esoteric yin-yang proportions. The ESSENCE  of  a Plant
or Food is in its TOTALITY. The healing HARMONY of
the Whole is NOT the same as that of the sum of its part.
The microwave oven I purchased was dismantled more
than two years ago.
