I have received a higher technical education. For a long time I worked as a private chemical engineer at a refinery. Our production is considered high-tech as it provides a comprehensive processing of raw materials. Many items were products of explosion and fire, not to mention their toxicity. Maintaining good health with my kind of job was simply impossible. Our workers preferred to ignore the problems with their lungs, stomach, liver and heart, believing that the higher paycheck sufficiently compensated for all the health hazards. Probably it was necessary for someone to raise an alarm and I had the strength to say, "Enough. Eric, this must have something to do." In order to somehow normalize the condition of my shattered body, I started to read hundreds of documents and spend a lot of time in the library. I started experimenting with myself through a radical change in my diet and trying out many traditional home remedies. Of course, it was difficult. Yes, many did not help, and some "medicines" were frankly useless. I learned a lot of alternate therapies and became acquainted with the writings of scientists and medical experts. I learned a lot, understood and analyzed. My friends and acquaintances first noticed, which I never did because I was so engrossed in making changes to my health and lifestyle that I forgot to take a look in the mirror. A gaunt old man, suffering from shortness of breath and overweight, had disappeared. I provided the first consultation to my sister. Candice has long suffered from excess weight and abdominal ailments. Based on her medical history, I compiled a personal diet for her. I didn't suggest anything extraordinary. I suggested what I have tried myself. Women are poor at hiding secrets, so soon I started giving advice to her friends and their husbands. My house could not accommodate everyone who wanted to seek my advice for physical and spiritual wellness. I rented a small room, where I read notes and advised the people. Among the people regularly attending my lectures was an editor of a major publishing house. At first, he listened in disbelief as I argued that only eating right can lead put the body in the right state. After some time, this man came up and thanked me. I was surprised. He decided to follow my recommendations and revised diet. As a token of thanks, he proposed to present the book to the public. So my first book about healthy lifestyles and proper nutrition was published the first edition of a trial.
