Elson Haas, M.D.: Detoxing For Life

Do you often need caffeine or sugar to get yourself through the workday? Do you have frequent neck or upper back pain? Do allergies plague your days? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you are among the millions of Americans who suffer from toxicity. Over the past 30 years, Dr. Elson Haas has developed and practiced the concept of Integrated Medicine. Since 1975, he has been devoted to healing through the process of detoxification and cleansing. Dr. Haas considers detoxification to be "the missing link in the American diet." He is a physician who practices cooperative medicine, guiding and supporting his patients, rather than telling or dictating what is good for them. "Illness represents conflict. What are our bodies guiding us to do?"

Dr. Elson Haas has transformed thousands of patient's lives through his practice, workshops, and books. He directs the Preventive Medical Center of Marin in San Rafael, California and is the author of Staying Healthy with the Seasons (Celestial Arts 1981), Staying Healthy with Nutrition (Celestial Arts 1992), and The New Detox Diet: The Complete Guide for Lifelong Vitality with Recipes, Menus, and Detox Plans (Celestial Arts 2005).
