Christopher Scarfe has had articles and interviews published in magazines and newspapers since 1986. He also co-published his own and others' work through Optimum Nutrition magazine and a series of 'How To' books entitled The Nutrition Connection. A selection of his publications is available here to read and/or print.     Click here to open a PDF copy of the book          Not for resale - Copyright - Christopher Scarfe - (1989) This book was published in 1989 when there was little information available for the lay person about digestion and absorption, cleansing diets and the importance of indigestible fibre and bacterial balance in the gut relative to general health and disease.  Now there is a wealth of published data and readable books on the subject, as well as increasing exposure in the media. It was intended as an introduction to the subject and still provides a foundation from which the reader can explore the importance of a healthy digestive system in relation to the health and vitality of the whole person. Remineralise Now – this article appeared in Optimum Nutrition Magazine Vol 3 No 1, 1989 and covers the basics of soil demineralisation and remineralisation.  It also outlines the hypothesis for the coming ice-age, which contradicts much of the thrust of the present obsession with “man-made global warming”, suggesting that global warming is a natural part of Earth’s geophysical cycles and is a precondition for ice ages.  See Remineralize The Earth to explore this subject further. Myositis - Facts, Feelings and Future Hopes (2003) covers different types of myositis such as dermatomyositis, polymyositis and inclusion-body myositis.  Myositis is a rare inflammatory, auto- immune, rheumatic disease mostly affecting the muscles.  I wrote a chapter for the book about nutrition and inflammation which can be viewed as a PDF document by clicking on the link above.  This chapter is covered by the usual copyright conditions.
