“The Adaptation Diet offers a unique perspective on weight loss,
pointing out the weight-gaining effects of ‘dietary stress,’ and
how to deal with them. Going way beyond just calorie control, Dr.
Charles Moss points out that dietary stress reduction—with or
without calorie reduction—will result in significant and sustained
weight loss. He tells us which foods and supplements actually
reduce the food-stress-induced, over-active cortisol response,
allowing that elusive goal, weight loss, to happen while at the
same time improving your health. If you want to lose weight, The
Adaptation Diet is an excellent place to start!” —Jonathan Wright,
MD, Editor, Nutrition & Healing Newsletter

illnesses. His approach is sensible, well- founded from experience,
and grounded in the translational science of our age.” —Jeffrey

“As a colleague of Dr. Charles Moss in integrative medicine since
the 1970s, I can attest to his pioneering work in nutritional
medicine, and to his wide-ranging knowledge and contemporary
application of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the world's
oldest mind-body medicine model. In this book he blends the wisdom
of the latter with his thirty-five years of practical clinical
experience with cutting-edge nutritional medicine. The result is a
book that helps the reader deal with modern health risks with clear
and practical suggestions and with the wider understanding of how
our diet itself directly affects our stress levels. Both TCM and
modern Western medicine would agree that our overall ability to
handle stress is a foundational skill for vital living and the
single most important preventive principle for all modern
diseases.” —Ronald Puhky, MD, BAc, Dip Ac. Medical Director,
InspireHealth Integrative Cancer Center, Victoria, BC
“I would recommend this book if you are starting out on a quest for
better health… you just might find the answer you’re looking for!”
