Foreword by David Perlmutter, MD, author of Grain BrainThe cult-classic health book, now revised and updated with a quick start cleanse, easy recipes, and more.It’s not news that Americans are sicker than ever. Seventy million of us suffer from digestive problems like acid reflux, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), or gastro esophageal reflex disorder (GERD). Another forty million have been diagnosed with anxiety and/or depression and a staggering fifty million Americans live with an autoimmune disease. But what is newsworthy is that all of these conditions share a common thread you’ve probably never heard of: candida."Candida" is the term for a group of yeast organisms that have lived in our digestive tract for millennia, in harmony with the other thousands of bacteria, viruses, and archaea that make up our microbiome. But due to poor diets, processed foods, overuse of antibiotics, environmental toxins, and increased stress, our microbiome has been under steady and constant attack for decades. Yeast are of a heartier stock than bacterial microbes, and as bacteria die off, yeast begins to overgrow in the digestive tract, a condition known as candidiasis. Mild and moderate cases of candidiasis present with fatigue, IBS, eczema, depression, brain fog, migraines, and weight gain. Severe cases allow the afflicted to develop autoimmune disease (such as Multiple Sclerosis), cancer, and Alzheimer’s.Ann Boroch’s self-published book, The Candida Cure, has been the #1 resource in candida treatment since 2008. Her program—which she used to heal herself from a life-threatening autoimmune disorder—has stood the test of time, and has become a life-changing resource for more than 65,000 people. Now, in this revised edition,  readers have even more tools, with updated information and case histories, a quick start cleanse, and all-new recipes and eating plans.

It is credited with helping fuel the abolitionist cause in the 1850s. In the first year after it was published, 300,000 copies of the book were sold in the United States alone.?This is probably one of the most beautiful digital version ever made of this story, containing over 90 gorgeous illustrations.?

Don Quijote de la Mancha (ortografía y título original —1605—, El ingenioso hidalgo Don Quixote de la Mancha) es una de las obras cumbre de la literatura espa?ola y la literatura universal, el libro más traducido después de la Biblia, escrito por Miguel de Cervantes.La novela consta de dos partes: la primera, El ingenioso hidalgo don Quijote de la Mancha, fue publicada en 1605; la segunda, El ingenioso caballero don Quijote de la Mancha, en 1615.La primera parte se imprimió en Madrid, en casa de Juan de la Cuesta, a fines de 1604. Salió a la venta en enero de 1605 con numerosas erratas, a causa de la celeridad que imponía el contrato de edición. Esta edición se reimprimió en el mismo a?o y en el mismo taller, de forma que hay en realidad dos ediciones de 1605 ligeramente distintas. Se sospecha, sin embargo, que existió una novela más corta, que sería una de sus futuras Novelas ejemplares.

Zece basarabeni pentru cultura rom?n? face parte dintr-un proiect mai amplu numit Interviuri cu tinerii dintre milenii. Anul 2000 era considerat unul mistic ?i chiar apocaliptic, s-a vorbit ?i s-a scris foarte mult despre aceast? cifr? plin? de simboluri, oricum, atunci treceam nu doar dintr-un secol ?n altul, ci ?i dintr-un mileniu ?n altul. Cum erau tinerii care au tr?it aceste momente, ce f?ceau, cum g?ndeau, ce proiecte de viitor aveau? – cartea aceasta ne r?spunde la aceste ?ntreb?ri-st?ri. Tinerii ale?i pentru dialoguri erau ?n focul ac?iunii, ?n v?rf, iar acum fiecare e o certitudine, nici unul nu a tr?dat speran?a investit? ?n ei, chiar dac? soarta lor – inevitabil – s-a schimbat de atunci.Dumitru Crudu nu mai scrie poezie, ?n schimb, acum a debutat ?i ca romancier ?i e unul din cei mai aprecia?i dramaturgi contemporani, piesele sale fiind puse ?n scen? pe toate continentele, ceea ce se ?nt?mpl? ?i cu piesele Nicoletei Esinencu, care atunci ?nc? nu debutase ?n volum, de?i textele ei erau jucate pe scena unor teatre de prestigiu at?t din Rom?nia, c?t ?i din Rusia, SUA, Germania, iar acum are c?r?i publicate ?i aici, ?i peste hotare. ?tefan Ba?tovoi a devenit ieromonahul Savatie, poetul deosebit de talentat dintre milenii s-a c?lug?rit, ?i-a f?cut o editur? ?i a ?nfiin?at ?i o revist?, iar c?r?ile sale de dup? c?lug?rire, romane ?i eseuri existen?iale, sunt poate cele mai citite c?r?i, cel pu?in asta spun v?nz?rile. Alexandru Vakulovski nu mai e debutantul furios care demonstreaz? prin c?r?ile sale de debut (3!) c? se poate scrie ?i altfel, revolu?ion?nd limbajul ?n literatura rom?n?. ?ntre timp, trilogia Letopizde? a fost publicat?, scriitorul edit?nd ?i c?teva c?r?i de poezie, iar piesele sale de teatru au fost traduse ?i editate ?n antologii din str?in?tate, unde au fost dramatizate, poeziile sale fiind selectate ?i pentru antologia de poezie din SUA, New European Poets, cea mai recent? carte a sa fiind romanul 157 de trepte spre iad sau Salva?i-m? la Ro?ia Montan? (Editura Cartier, 2010). Vasile Ernu a lucrat la una dintre cele mai mari edituri din Rom?nia, a editat o carte de mare succes (N?scut ?n URSS, Editura Polirom, 2007), tradus? ?n mai multe limbi, iar pe a doua a publicat-o direct ?n str?in?tate. Pavel P?duraru ??i continu? lupta ziaristic?, dar ?ntre timp s-a afirmat ca poet ?i a publicat ?i un roman destul de controversat, care a provocat multe discu?ii. Mito? Micleu?anu este, al?turi de Florin Braghi?, fondatorul ?i realizatorul ?Planetei Moldova“. ?ntre timp, Florin s-a concentrat pe munca de designer, iar Mito? pe literatur?, edit?nd trei c?r?i ?i devenind una dintre cele mai sigure voci literare. Roman Tolici este unul dintre cei mai aprecia?i arti?ti plastici tineri, expun?nd mai mult ?n str?in?tate dec?t acas? – la Praga, Strausberg, Celje, Berlin. Super-boxerul Octavian ??cu a devenit un om de ?tiin?? la fel de st?p?n pe noile instrumente de munc?, care scrie c?r?i de istorie ?i lucreaz? la multe proiecte valoroase. Iar Zdob ?i Zdub este una dintre cele mai populare ?i mai originale forma?ii de limb? rom?n?, c?nt?nd la prestigioase festivaluri europene, ?n turnee de promovare a albumelor sau pur ?i simplu ?n concerte, purt?nd marca unui nou stil: hardcore moldovenesc.Ce-i une?te pe ace?ti arti?ti ?nc? tineri? ?n primul r?nd, locul na?terii, to?i fiind rom?ni basarabeni, apoi limba ?n care creeaz?, to?i cei ?zece“ intervieva?i trec?nd Prutul ?i activ?nd ?n cultura rom?n?. Interviurile sunt splendide, Mihail Vakulovski fiind un maestru ?n domeniu, iar r?spunsurile sunt deschise, directe, lipsite de orice fel de inhibi?ii. O carte cu siguran?? interesant? ?i pentru cititorii dintre mileniile trei ?i patru. Lectur? pl?cut?!

Poemele lui Virgil Botnaru au una dintre cele mai rare caliti regsibile la un debutant: anume polifonia. Dei arat numaidect recognoscibil, ele sun diferit de la o seciune la alta a crii; se vede, vreau s spun, c-s produse de un acelai spirit i o aceeai energeia, ns sunetul lor e mereu altul. Uneori, ele par contaminate de un misticism aproape pios, ca-n poemul (aproape un haiku) n care poetul trece dimineaa devreme pe lng catedral i gsete c Dumnezeu doarme; pentru ca dup cteva pagini s gseti o strigtur licenioas de dou versuri, deucheat dar simpatic; iar, dup alte cteva pagini, poemele devin documente ale unei melancolii virile, alcoolizate & depresive. E limpede, pentru mine, c Virgil Botnaru e un poet, al crui instrument acoper cteva octave bune; i c tie, de la bun nceput, cum s i-l exploateze. E, adic, un poet despre care tiu sigur c voi mai vorbi–cu ncredere & apreciere.“ – Radu Vancu
