Description

About the Author Shaneequewa Samuels is a level 1 certified holistic level 1 nutritional counselor. In 2009 she adopted a lifestyle of fasting, raw vegan diets, and clean eating after having several inconclusive test results during 2008. She was disconnected from everything that could bring her body back into balance. After researching and experimenting for over ten years she figured out what diet was the most efficient for people of color.

Features & Highlights

  • This information is available and beneficial for all races but it is especially beneficial for people of color. For centuries the Medical institution has ignored the specific bio-chemical make up of Hispanic and African people who have the highest melanin content. There is a complete break down of how to cleanse your body of disease for the beginner and the advanced person. You will have sample meals to assist you with changing your lifestyle. For specific ailments there will be all natural treatments that you can perform at home. You will also have access to my food shopping list which will greatly assist you on the journey back to health for the future.Along with change of diet I introduce a section on the history of the black and brown person in America and how it has shaped our eating habits today. It is very important to learn our story and not History in order to reverse the self hate that has been instilled in black and brown people all over the world. This is necessary for our children because they need to know who they were prior to colonization. Mental ingestion of bad information is equally detrimental as ingestion of poor quality foods. In the final section of this book you will learn how to slow down your thoughts in order to heal from within which is essential to reversing dis-ease in the body. All physical disease manifest from thoughts.

A must read for every person of color!

A great read, very informative with research links to look further into topics yourself. Also like the book recommendations as well. This definitely has been an eye opener for me and I’m Gradually incorporating some of this information into my everyday life. She discuss topics on the Black community and the medical community. She also touches on how our diet is different than the Europeans and the proper way we are supposed to eat. Like what we should eat and not eat and even the best time frames. Very informative and I’m glad I choose to get this book. I will also say to do your own research and asking questions never just take the word of someone else. And remember EVERYONE is human and doesn’t know all. Each person is different than the next, so research on one particular group doesn’t define another. What works for one or most doesn’t define all. We are not the same, history and science has proven that!

Mind, Body & Spirit

I have consciously already been ready to start the shift to further get my mind, body and spirit connected. Three pages in and this book already has me hooked. As a personal trainer who preaches anything that has anything to do with the body being healthy, I am ready to spread this knowledge to all my people.

Simply: You need it! So get it!

WOW! The information within this book for Black Men and Women is bountiful.

She covers so many topics in a extremely relate-able way and language. This will take at least 2-3 years of reading, re-reading and referencing to become full out in-tune with a healthy melanin lifestyle...but it will be worth it.

I recommend it to so many people. Honestly if you're even thinking, searching on information on how to look and feel better, gain more knowledge on you makeup and what systems/medicine/steps works best for US! You need this book like last week.

A must have!

Please buy this book...and while you’re at it, buy another copy (or two or three) for a melanated loved one!). There’s so much we can heal and change and this is a wonderful guide to do so. She takes a scientific, holistic and easy to digest (pun intended) approach to healing on every level. I cannot recommend this book enough. Find this author or YouTube and IG as HighFrequencyTea. Love her!
