Summary

Suffering scoliosis and chronic pain, fatigue, and depression due to a back injury, Ellen Tart-Jensen became determined to take charge of her life. She began researching natural health care and discovered that by listening to one's body and following nature's simple laws, health is attainable for everyone-herself included. Now a nutritional consultant and certified iridologist, she's at her absolute healthiest and travels the world coaching others in self-care. Filled with a wealth of tips on nutrition, therapeutic teas, exercise, cleanses, and more, Health is Your Birthright is a roadmap for those looking to take charge of their ailments, or at least lead a more balanced, vibrant lifestyle. In his lifetime, Dr. Bernard Jensen wrote more than 50 books, with sales totaling in the millions; worked with 350,000 patients worldwide; and, finally, groomed Ellen as his protégé.
