Online reviews and interviews:
A rabbi and a medical doctor have teamed up to write Body & Soul: The Torah Path to Health, Fitness and a Holy Life.
Jewish tradition has 3,000 years of wisdom on this subject but until now it has been scattered across many books, most of which have never been translated. In partnership with doctors and dietitians, Body & Soul includes current medical information (with references to medical literature) on what is known about nutrition, exercise, weight loss and longevity, as well as related topics such as environmental toxins.
Body & Soul is a provocative and motivational book which for the first time brings together hundreds of Jewish sources (translated into English) about health and well being, along with the most recent, reliable, evidence-based science of food, diet, nutrition, exercise, and much more to aid in leading a vibrant and balanced life.
The book highlights the interconnectedness of physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of well being, with practical information and tips, including:
● Addressing special Jewish food challenges
● Creating a balanced diet and conquering a sweet tooth
● A Torah view of exercise
● Helping children develop healthy habits
● The importance of sleep
● A Jewish view of intermittent fasting
