With a foreword by none other than the renowned Spanish chef Ferrán Adriá, the book features 76 carefully curated recipes that reflect SHA's innovative approach to gastronomy. The recipes uniquely blend Japanese and Mediterranean cuisines, inspired by the dietary habits of the world's longest-living communities. The Food & Beverage team has worked symbiotically with SHA’s expert nutritionists to conceptualize a variety of recipes that support common health conditions and goals, including detox, weight loss, fitness, and even satisfying fast-food cravings. Each dish is meticulously crafted to be energy-boosting, highly balanced, and made with local, organic, and seasonal produce.
From appetizers and starters to main courses, teas, and desserts, "The Power of Healthy Nutrition" offers access to SHA’s 360-degree method, known for its therapeutic effects. The recipes are balanced, natural, and alkaline, centered around a plant-based diet with some including fish, adhering to SHA's philosophy. This philosophy combines centuries of empirical knowledge from oriental medicine with updated nutritional principles from Harvard University and recommendations from the World Health Organization. The result is a collection of dishes that do not sacrifice flavor or texture while ensuring the organoleptic qualities of the food. The cookbook is available for purchase via the SHA online boutique here.
