In this compelling book, Ray Maor explores breatharianism, its challenges, rewards, and how it completely transformed his life and the lives of many of his students. He shares his experiences and his research on the energy of prana and the multiple benefits of becoming a breatharian. After years of spiritual development and in search of higher knowledge, Ray took the ultimate breatharian initiation challenge of eliminating food and living on prana. Then he volunteered to be tested in a televised medical experiment where he went 8 days without food or water, during which his blood composition remained stable, proving with scientific testing and research the viability of the breatharian lifestyle. His increasingly popular Pranic Living Group Initiation retreats are grounded in practical techniques and methods for safely living on light and demonstrating that indeed, our bodies and our spirits have capabilities extending far beyond our current understanding.
In 1923 Therese Neumann, a nun in Southern Germany, stopped eating and drinking. Apart from the wafer given at Mass, she did not eat again, despite living for a further 35 years. Other similar cases have been reported over the years - often holy men from the East - and have taken on something of a mythical status. However, they remain obscure enough to be brushed aside by modern scientists. Michael Werner presents a new type of challenge to sceptics. A fit family man in his 50s, he has a doctorate in Chemistry and is the managing director of a research institute in Switzerland. In this remarkable account he describes how he stopped eating in 2001 and has survived perfectly well without food ever since. In fact, he claims never to have felt better! Unlike the people who have achieved this feat in the past, he is an ordinary man who lives a full and active life. Michael Werner has an open challenge to all scientists: Test me using all the scientific monitoring and data you wish! In fact, he describes one such test here in which he was kept without food in a strictly monitored environment for ten days. Werner also describes in detail how and why he came to give up food, and what his life is like without it. This book features other reports from those who have attempted to follow this way of life, as well as supplementary material on possible scientific explanations of how one could ‘live on light’.
For fans of the New York Times bestseller I Quit Sugar or Katie Couric's controversial food industry documentary Fed Up, A Year of No Sugar is a "delightfully readable account of how [one family] survived a yearlong sugar-free diet and lived to tell the tale...A funny, intelligent, and informative memoir." —Kirkus It's dinnertime. Do you know where your sugar is coming from? Most likely everywhere. Sure, it's in ice cream and cookies, but what scared Eve O. Schaub was the secret world of sugar—hidden in bacon, crackers, salad dressing, pasta sauce, chicken broth, and baby food. With her eyes opened by the work of obesity expert Dr. Robert Lustig and others, Eve challenged her husband and two school-age daughters to join her on a quest to quit sugar for an entire year. Along the way, Eve uncovered the real costs of our sugar-heavy American diet—including diabetes, obesity, and increased incidences of health problems such as heart disease and cancer. The stories, tips, and recipes she shares throw fresh light on questionable nutritional advice we've been following for years and show that it is possible to eat at restaurants and go grocery shopping—with less and even no added sugar. Year of No Sugar is what the conversation about "kicking the sugar addiction" looks like for a real American family—a roller coaster of unexpected discoveries and challenges. "As an outspoken advocate for healthy eating, I found Schaub's book to shine a much-needed spotlight on an aspect of American culture that is making us sick, fat, and unhappy, and it does so with wit and warmth."—Suvir Sara, author of Indian Home Cooking "Delicious and compelling, her book is just about the best sugar substitute I've ever encountered."—Pulitzer Prize-winning author Ron Powers

Do you hate to grocery shop? Do you detest incessant menu planning, or do you spend more on your family's food needs than you do on your mortgage? Feel as if you're running to the grocery store before a storm or other potentially disruptive event because you need to stock up? Food storage is the answer to each of those problems. My name's Karen, and I care about making sure my family's dietary needs are met, no matter what. One way I do this is through our year's worth of personal food storage, and now I'm here to show you how to easily store a year's worth of food as well.In A Year Without the Grocery Store, I walk you through a step-by-step plan which:- Incorporates the meals your family already loves.- Takes into account your family's unique food allergies, intolerances, and preferences.- Teaches you how to economically store food, and shows you how, if necessary, you could feed each member of your family for around $160/year.- Provides you with recipes that take your food storage from edible to delicious. - Discusses alternate ways to cook your food storage in case you encounter a power outage.- Discusses properly storing water.- Points out pitfalls and holes in most people's food storage and crafts a plan for how to avoid them.If you thought the idea of a year's worth of food storage was a little crazy, take another look at healthy meals, money savings, not having to run to the grocery store before winter storms, and peace of mind that comes with knowing that you've planned and prepared and that your family can now go a year without the grocery store.
A food psychologist identifies hidden factors, motivations, and cues that cause overeating and offers practical solutions to help avoid these hidden traps and enjoy food without putting on excess pounds.
This past year, and living through a pandemic, has ultimately changed our lives forever. It has caused increased levels of stress, anxiety, depression, and isolation. Add to that a great reliance on a virtual world filled with misinformation and societal pressure, food safety issues and insecurity, an influx of body identification and you have the perfect storm for a mental health crisis and an explosion of people who are struggling to gain control of something and as a result, a surge in eating disorders. I have been a Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist (RDN) in private practice since 1990 where I specialize in eating disorders and felt compelled to put together this book of relational essays. When I decided to write about eating disorders, I took a different approach. Instead of scientific data and test cases, I gathered my patient's stories together to paint a vivid and relatable picture. In addition, I have included 23 pieces from recovered patients, parents of recovered patients, and professionals I've had the pleasure of knowing, with their permission.My intent on putting this book of relational essays together is to help those of you who struggle WITH or WITHOUT food to know that you are not alone in the world. Most people just keep their eating problems hidden. They do not express themselves because they feel people will think they are crazy or because other people just do not "get it."People struggle every day. Unfortunately, most people with eating disorders struggle internally and feel misunderstood. People in their lives can not relate to the inner dialogue and beliefs they have, so they struggle alone. My patients are so frustrated with the messages society and the media have insinuated that we need to be robotic or less than human. In this one size doesn't fit the same world we live in, I have found a way to provide stories that are truly relational so each person can feel special in their skin.
