5 stars!! The only book where is important information is compiled in one place - A Keeper! .......2007-07-14
Bryan Rosner has done it again! As with the rife book, he has brought to the Lyme community useful techniques, many of which, are not well known to main stream America. This information may mean the difference between feeling better, leading a productive life or leading a life of Lyme misery full of mind-numbing fatigue and pain.
Some of this information has taken years of trial & error by Lyme folks to find out what is helpful. This book allows you to leapfrog all that and start using right away what has proved significant.
If you are looking for a reference with every statement footnoted and cross-referenced.... a reference with every technique having a double blind study, then this book is not for you. Much of that information you are looking for, particularly the double blind technique trials does not exist. But if you are looking for cutting edge, practical information for Lyme, then buy this book, I think you'll find it worth your time.
Do these techniques work? All I can say is that on antibiotics alone, I was feeing better, but still struggled with work. Since minimizing antibiotic use over 5 years ago, and focusing on many of the techniques mentioned in this book; I am feeling much better. 2 years ago I climbed Mt. Rainier in Washington and last Christmas, I climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro in Africa.
I recommend this book. Thanks Bryan Rosner for putting this information in print, so we don't have to hunt it down anymore!!
A Practical and Very Useful Guide.......2007-07-13
The Top Ten Lyme Disease Treatments
Chronic Lyme patients are unique. Usually it is not just the Lyme spirochete they are left to deal with but those who are chronically ill often harbor several, if not many pathogens. This creates a situation where symptoms can affect every part of the body and there is no way to be sure which pathogen is causing what symptom. With the many allopathic and natural treatments we are bombarded with, especially for Lyme patients with cognitive problems, it is difficult to effectively decide where to begin. What treatments are most effective? How should they be combined? What are our most affordable options, where we as patients have more control?
Many times I have just thrown up my hands in defeat and decided not to deal with any of these questions. Because antibiotics alone seemed to be working for me, the rest was just too complicated to sort out. However, at some point we may not have access to antibiotics for the use with chronic Lyme. Another consideration is that antibiotics don't always remain effective forever, and for some people they just don't seem to work. These drugs can also build up in your system and cause toxic side effects.
This is where Bryan Rosner's book "The Ten Top Lyme Disease Treatments" comes into play. The author has created a practical resource that is organized and easy to understand and implement. Being a Lyme patient himself, he has done much research and experimentation. He offers information gleaned from his experience and the experience of others.
Antibiotics alone have not been the complete answer for curing or effectively controlling Lyme disease. Most people will come to the same conclusion concerning natural treatments. The Lyme disease germ (borrelia burgdorferi) is a very smart bug, is able to evade the immune system, antibiotics and current available testing.
Bryan Rosner's solution is to offer us valuable information concerning both allopathic and natural medicine and how to use them together to form a comprehensive treatment plan. He emphasizes 5 core treatment protocols and other supportive treatments. He suggests that antibiotics be rotated and used for fairly short periods of time. The author warns us that treating Lyme disease and the co-infections is more of a marathon event as opposed to a sprint. If we approach the treatment of Lyme with this in mind, it will help us to avoid discouragement.
On page 293 of Rosner's book he says, " Because Lyme disease is caused by a bacterial infection, the core of a Lyme disease treatment protocol is comprised of antibacterial therapies. The most effective antibacterial therapies are pharmaceutical and non pharmaceutical antibiotics, the Marshall Protocol, and Rife Machine therapy. At all times during the recovery process, at least one of these three therapies should be in use."
Bryan believes that Rife machine therapy should be the foundation of an antibacterial treatment and tells us why. He discusses the Rife Machine in this book but for those who want a more comprehensive understanding of this type of electromedicine, one should read his first book "Lyme Disease and Rife Machines."
The book stresses that we need to strengthen the immune system through diet, eliminating exposures to toxic and allergic substances, detoxification, electromedicine and herbs. He also points out that there is no magic remedy and that patients must become proactive and take the time to adjust their priorities.
Rosner does an excellent job making sure the patient understands what can and cannot be expected from the various holistic and allopathic treatments. Many of us are aware of the raging Lyme wars (disagreement on the testing and treatment of Lyme disease) that are keeping patients from getting proper treatment. Here is what Rosner has to say about that. "The debate has recently reached a boiling point, involving the passions, fears, biases, personal experiences --- and let us not forget, financial interests --- of those involved. Amidst the inferno, it has been largely forgotten that the goal of health care is not to establish exclusive, single-minded medical truths, but instead, to utilize all available medical treatments that cure disease --- regardless of which paradigm they belong to."
There is so much practical information and so many helpful resources listed in this book that I could go on and on but I am sure you would rather read the book. I highly recommend "The Top Ten Lyme Disease Treatments " to anyone who wants to better understand the realities of treating Lyme disease and what it takes to get well.
Best Investment I ever made.......2007-07-07
This is an excellent book and I would recommend it to anyone who has Lyme. I do not know Bryan Rosner personally but was part of a national teleconference and Bryan was the speaker. He has suffered immensely with this disease, and really wants to help fellow sufferers, in my opinion. This book synopsizes all the latest Lyme therapies. The book is easy to understand and Bryan has done an excellent job in sharing all that he has learned in his journey with Lyme. Well done, Bryan!
Exceptional Book.......2007-06-12
I consider this book a God-send. It is concise, well-organized, and thorough; no fluff, but well-stocked with the details you need to wage war with Lyme intelligently. It takes the reader all the way from understanding the big picture down to the brass tacks of where to find particular supplements and what websites to visit for more information. It is written by and for someone in the trenches and leaves one feeling competent to fight the fight. Best wishes to anyone needing this book. I think that you will be glad you purchased this one.
Thanks to Mr. Rosner.......2007-05-19
Dear Mr. Rosner,
Thank you so much for the wonderful book you recently published
on Lyme Disease entitled "The Top 10 Lyme Disease Treatments". I was
wavering on the edge of insanity, not only from the effects of the Lyme
Disease I have, but because of the multitude of confusing choices and
conflicting information I have been getting. Obviously, your brain is
working well (again?) as your straightforward and succint style of
writing shows, AND that is some of the main proof that you know what
you are talking about, because you are ABLE to write this book!!! I
haven't finished it yet, but even the few chapters I have read are very
encouraging and lend evidence to my suspicions about long term
antibiotic treatment.
Thanks for helping me to go from hopeless to hopeful in 0 to 60.
A huge hug,
Hilary Macatangay

The Bible on Chronic Fatigue!.......2000-08-31
This book is a must for all people who suffer with chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia. I read it slowly, trying to absorb each and every suggestion that was written.
Changed My Life (For the Better).......2000-06-30
My boss bought this book for me, and I thought it was going to be just another, "yeah, you have fibromyalgia and it's a real shame, this is how you cope with it", but instead, this book CHANGED MY LIFE! (Sorry for the run-on sentence). I had so much pain that some days I couldn't get out of bed. I would find a position that was minimally pain free and not move until I was better. It got so bad that I had to use a cane so I could get to work. But I read the book and I couldn't believe the case histories. But when the pain got so bad that I thought I would lose my job, I changed my diet (hey, what did I have to lose? ) and low and behold, within a week the pain was gone (I stopped taking pain medicine everyday), the "fog" lifted and I felt better than I had in YEARS! Another side benefit, is that I have lost weight! But I recommend this book very highly. I will also say that my doctors have pooh-poohed these results, but I firmly believe that what we eat, really effects how we feel. I just never knew how much!
A must have for the Chronic Fatigue/Fibromyalgia sufferer!.......2000-05-18
If you have or know someone who suffers from fibromyalgia (chronic muscle pain) or chronic fatigue, you absolutely must get this book. Don't waste one more minute, order it now. IT could save your life. Don't believe the naysayers who tell you that nothing can be done. There is plenty that can be done. Not all of it will work, but at least you now have a good place to get started, and techniques that have proven successful for others. Plus the book gives you excellent resources for finding the best doctors out there to get you well. Any questions feel free to contact me at srowe@nbn.net
A Book with HOPE.......2000-05-01
Anyone person suffering these illness, and has struggled with the lack of medical help, NEEDS HOPE. I felt this was truly provided in this book along with the information of Healing. Just reading this book, helped my depression of long term illness that no Dr. could see, touch or give me a Rx for. Getting older or gaining weight, being female did not cause these health problems. Seeing other accounts of similar problems has given me a place to start investigating just what is wrong with my health and so armed with this information, I think can be the first step on the path to wellness.
A must have for those afflcted, needing solid facts/answers!.......1999-11-05
After many hours of searching and reading, this book combines documented clinical facts and case studies. I too suffered with these conditions and have found this book and its treatments to produce positive results! I have been in the medical profession for 20 years and had to leave the field because of my condition, but until recently, have I put these practices to the test, and have found those that work for me. If you really suffer from this, trust me, YOU NEED this book. For those interested, please feel free to write me and I'll discuss with you my own treatment plan and results..
Book Description
Amalgam Illness: Diagnosis and Treatment starts with a detailed explanation of why to consider amalgam illness to be something that some people must have by comparing the well known statistics for how much mercury people absorb from their fillings to the well known statistics of how sensitive different members of a population are to a given toxin. This is for people who really don't know if they believe in amalgam illness or not (the other material available is rather sensational and I can't blame anyone reading it for having questions) before going any further.
Amalgam Illness: Diagnosis and Treatment discusses how to deal with physicians if you think you have a controversial disease - especially if you have the great "luck" to be covered by a managed care plan.
A key section is devoted to diagnosis - how to tell if you actually have amalgam illness instead of something else. It is also possible to be mercury poisoned from something other than amalgam, and the testing and examination described here is diagnostic regardless of the source.
How to get the dental work done safely if you have decided amalgam fillings are the problem is briefly described - there is a robust industry of amalgam free dentists if you know how to look for them.
The use of drugs and nutritional supplements to get the mercury out of your system is carefully presented - there are some important factors here that are not well described in the previous books on the subject and not all physicians who claim they know what to do actually give good advice.
Then comes what turns out to be the major section of the book - how to treat all the related health conditions amalgam illness can cause so as to relieve them while mercury detoxification proceeds. Since amalgam illness is not widely recognized in the medical community, most people with it get pretty sick before they get motivated to bounce around between doctors and eventually end up in front of one who tells them about it. So most victims have pretty serious, unpleasant health problems (like fibromyalgia or severe allergies) and they really need to make these STOP for the year or two it can take to get fully detoxed and let your body heal.
There are extensive tables of what to use for different conditions, a description of all the drugs and nutritional supplements suggested in the book, and appendices covering things like what the assorted clinical laboratory tests you might get actually mean, what other helpful books are that you might use, and supporting information like what the chelating agents are and how they work.

A Life Saver.......2007-03-31
My wife who is in her 30s, has never smoked, eats a very healthy diet, exercises daily, and in general has a very happy life. She started to have health issues that progressively got worse over the past three years. Things like, loosening teeth, hot flashes, nerve pain, racing heart, heart thumps, panic attack, immune system decline, insomnia, problems with certain foods. In one year alone we racked up thousands of dollors in co-pays and prescriptions. All of the conventional tests, blood tests, x-rays, CAT scans, EKGs the doctors used could not identify the cause. The doctors began to say, "you are young and can't possibly be really sick it must be in your head."
We began to do our own research and noticed that she had a very bad period with many ER visits shortly after having a large old Amalgam removed by her dentist. This is when our research led us to Amalgam Illness. We asked our doctor to test for Mercury. When the blood test came back she was over the limit. We finally had our first real clue to what was causing my wife's health issues. Even though there are millions of people who have Amalgam fillings in their mouth and are suffering various degrees of Amalgam Illness the Dental and Medical communities are not ready or willing to address the issue.
This book however does address the issue in great detail. It is written at a college reading level and so may be challenging to read for some, but it is well written and has excellent content. It in detail expains what the illness is, what the symptoms are, how to help relieve the symptoms, and most importantly how to recover from the illness. The book has greatly improved my wife's quality of life and enabled us to get her on a real path to recovery.
Thank you Dr. Cutler for writing this book! I only wish the government would address this issue. Just imagine how many people have this illness and are being wrongly diagnosed and medicated, not to mention the millions of dollars being wasted.
Sincerely,
Robert Brown
The Book Brought Me Back To Life..........2007-03-21
3 Years ago I was suffering from many of the symptoms of heavy metal poisoning. I did not really know what was wrong and I attributed many of the symptoms to stress and the beginning of middle age. I consulted a dr who wanted to put me on hormones, and a naturopathic dr. The ND took a full medical history and informally asked me if I had silver fillings. It turned out I did, I had many of them including one that had broken several years before and was continuing to crack. I could taste metal in my mouth. I then was sent to do a heavy metal test, via a "Challenge" test. I was very shocked when the results came back off the charts. I was rather skeptical that this was the source of my problems so I started to do resarch. I talked to people all over the world including firefighters who had been exposed in 911. I talked to the Department of Ecology in Washington State and the E.P.A. I then found Dr. Cutler's book and a support group for Chelation online via yahoo. I sought out additional medical advice. By this time I was very ill, almost bedridden. It was very horrible because I had been quite well most of my life and took wellness for granted. I considered the possibility that if I continued to feel so sick I wanted to end my life. I first did a detox as recommended by Dr. Cutler while your fillings are in and noticed improvement. I then went and scheduled total filling removal. After the removal I was even more sick. I had taken all the fillings out at once, something that is not recommended. It is better to do it in stages. I followed Dr. Cutler's recommendations for chelation and his protocol and I started to recover. Under the guidance of a naturopath, and an MD(who does not want to be named because of the controversy) I did chelation and natural detox using fir saunas and supplements. I have had a full recovery. I still need to chelate but I do it lightly in the spring with a follow up from ND and MD. I followed Dr. Cutler's recommendations to the letter. His book is very clear cut and concise. I recommend it for anyone who thinks they may have problems due to their amalgams. I am not a researcher but I do have common sense. An element which is very toxic out of our mouths, in fact a hazardous waste...cannot suddenly be safe in our mouths. I was told basically off the record by people at the Department of Ecology that this is "a consumer driven issue." In other words they thought it was a good idea to get mercury out of your head, and not let a dentist ever put mercury fillings in your mouth...but due to this controversy they could not say anything on record. Moreover...if you go to the E.P.A. website you will see they are telling dentists NOT to use amalgam fillings. I also had been overexposed to flouride due to a habit of eating toothpaste while on the way to workouts at the gym and not really spitting it out. I thank Dr. Cutler, Andy very much for his work because I believe it saved my health. I think it is very irresponsible for dentists not to let their patients know about the possible dangers of amalgam fillings. It is true that not everyone is sensitive, and everyone gets different results but we cannot ignore the effects and possible ramifications related to heavy metals being in our bodies. This controversy has been around for a long time. The attitude of some researchers is sort of to say, "well not everyone gets this from their fillings so it must not exist" This is not a very responsible position. Not everyone gets lung cancer from smoking, but we now know there is a definite correlation between cancer and smoking. I thank Dr. Cutler very much. I have purchased several copies of the book and given them away to people who have symptoms. I would recommend this book to anyone who currently has silver fillings and has symptoms or no symptoms. Recently a contractor I had hired took his 4 year old to the dentist. She was given 6 silver fillings and became ill and had spotting indicative of a reaction. I shared the book with him and he had these fillings taken out. I would never let my child get silver fillings now that I know about this research. I was most fortunate that the people I worked with were open, and willing to look at other research including studies from Europe, and the basis of the treatment came from Dr. Cutler because of his experiences and the fact he had evaluated other treatments that can cause harm due to how mercury works in the human body. I recommend this book to everyone who currently has amalgam fillings. For the people who say that it is quackery, I challenge you to consider that this was what people have said about smoking, having lead in paint, pesticides, and anything in the environment where people profit until enough people get sick and or die. It is very irresponsible to take this position. Thank you Dr. Cutler for having the courage to do the work and publish it.
Excellent resource.......2006-06-03
Even though his book could be more organized, I give Dr. Cutler five stars for his content. I have owned the book for over four years and keep referencing it over and over. It outlines a conservative and safe protocol for mercury/heavy metal detoxification.
Essential Information on Mercury Poisoning.......2006-05-16
If you or someone you love has or suspects mercury poisoning, you need this book. Mercury poisoning and amalgam illness are very controversial subjects (at least in the U.S.), and it is often hard to get thorough information on properly diagnosing and treating it. This book is a godsend for those looking for answers.
Some have remarked that this book is too technical and hard to understand. I feel Cutler has tried to explain this complex problem as clearly as possible...however, the fact of the matter is if you do have mercury poisoning, you are going to have to become an expert to have any hope of getting better.
A smiley "feel good" book on fasting and juicing garlic and cilantro may be easier to read and make you feel more secure, but it's not going to solve real mercury poisoning. Your family doctor will most likely ignore you, and even some alternative practitioners may be somewhat confused as to how to handle treatment, potentially causing more harm than good.
Dr Cutler spells out in detail the chelation tests and protocols you need to avoid that make the situation worse. Particularly helpful was the listing of supplements you can use before/during chelation to soften symptoms and side effects. Also essential information on specific details of chelation and testing to gauge how much metal you are excreting (in all cases, my practitioner recommended a different approach, and after I presented the information in the book, the doctor agreed Cutler's method was safer and made more sense).
Had I not found this book, I never would have had the courage and ammunition to take charge of my own treatment. If you are in the same place, and need reliable information, buy this book, read it, find the sections that pertain to you, learn it, know it. If there is information you don't understand, go to the library or get on the Internet and figure it out. A good place to start is learning about Amino Acids, how they function in your body, and which ones are linked to your specific symptoms. A great companion on this subject is Michael Lesser's "The Brain Chemistry Plan". I carry a copy of Lesser and Cutler's books in my backpack at all times.
Thank you Andrew Cutler.
The only one that works.......2006-02-25
I was almost dead. This works. First energy came back to me for each round of detox. Then allergies lessened, joint aches went away, stomach problems decreased.. Well, poisonoed people can have hundreds of symptoms, I wont count to 100. Read his forum on yahoogroups for more info.
Good luck

Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia and Lyme Disease.......2007-04-16
This book is jam-packed with information for treating the multiple dysfunctions found in Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia and Lyme Disease. It provides more insights on how to treat the latter two conditions than any other book I have read. What's even more impressive, it presents perspectives from a multitude of experts, so that a well-rounded approach to healing can be formulated.
I had to read this book several times to absorb all of the information in it and gained many valuable insights from it.
That said, I found the information on Lyme Disease to be sorely lacking and the section on Lyme to be rather small. Also, in many cases, CFIDS, Fibromyalgia ARE actually manifestations of Lyme Disease, and I don't recall the book emphasizing this.
Granted, much information about how to treat Lyme has just recently emerged and this information may have not been available at the time that this book was published, yet I believe that a more in-depth discussion of Lyme would have been appropriate.
Overall, however, this book is an excellent source of information for anyone wanting to learn about the aforementioned conditions and how to manage them.
Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia & Lyme Disease.......2005-09-16
Overall it is very informative. However, it was lacking in areas such as how to manage low blood pressure which is found in 70% of chronic fatigue patients. In fact, the tilt test which is used by the Social Security Administration (for disability claims)as a marker for the syndrome is never mentioned (my blood pressure dropped to 56/33 during this test). Dr. Cheney and Dr. Bell as well as other leading doctors/researchers who were/are the pioneers in identifying and treating CFS/FMS have protocols for low bp which would be helpful to CFS patients. There is little attention paid to the real leaders in this field. Although Teitelbaum, Chaitow, and Lapp were mentioned, other leaders were forgotten. There is serious research being done (and findings) at the University of Oregon and University of Miami that was totally neglected. In place of referencing these leading doctors, physicians like Dr. Haimes are referenced who is skilled with hgh therapy for anti-aging but who is not very knowledgeable with CFS or Fibromylagia nor does he claim to specialize in CFS/FMS treatments (the two syndromes I suffer with and subjects of this book). So readers have to take care not to use these physician references in the book as referrals to doctors who subscribe to the protocols/insights of this book.
Unbelievably thorough and right on the money!.......2004-10-07
Holy Smokes! I have been looking for the answers to my environmental illness/fybromyalgia problems for nearly 3 years, and have just been diagnosed with Lyme Disease as well. The answers to my remaining questions were found IN THIS ONE BOOK!
The authors have made sure to show pictures, diagrams, etc., so even the lay person can understand where certain body parts reside and how they do or do not work, depending on your situation. I consider myself to be reasonably well-informed on the subjects covered in Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia and Lyme Disease; and I have been able to help many others who sufferer with these diseases. Yet I have NEVER seen such a wonderful resource all in one place before! If you have these health problems, don't pass this one by! There is a lot you can do for yourself without having to damage your body/liver further with just massive doses of heavy-duty allopathic meds. :-):-)

EXTREMELY helpful book .... I feel like a "NEW " person! .......2005-03-14
I've been following MOST of what "Natural Choices for Fibromyalgia" suggested and after suffering from Fibromyalgia symptoms for almost 10 years, this is the best I've felt. The best part is that I'm NOT even taking anymore pain/sleeping pills!!
Although there isn't a cure for Fibromyalgia YET, this book explains so many simple, yet effective, NATURAL ways to manage so many of our awful symptoms.
I think everyone that suffers from Fibromyalgia needs to read this book. It's definitely been the best $15.00 I've spent and can honestly say that it's truly been an answer to my prayers!
I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone suffering from FMS. .......2005-03-14
Natural Choices for Fibromyalgia is VERY informative and I learned so much about how nutrition does actually play a HUGE part in helping with my Fibromyalgia symptoms.
This book recommends a "whole food" supplement called JuicePlus (www.jplus.net) (It's fruits and vegetables in capsule form). I've been taking for almost a year now and although I still have the pain, the fatigue is DRASTICALLY better since taking this.
I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone suffering from FMS.
Book Description
Mainstream medicine, however useful in other areas of healing, has failed to effectively treat the complexities of fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome.

In the area we live one of the biggest problems is finding a Doctor thats fully understands and can treat accordingly by using conventional and alternative means. We also do not have a support group in the area and we both have learnt so much in this wonderful book.We can now from the book understand a lot of what has happened almost on a daily basis for my partner as sections in this book are spot on with regular body signs and symptoms.
Book Description
Stop Feeling Sick & Tired All the Time! Finally, there is an effective treatment that uses homeopathic medicines and natural supplements to treat both Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue syndromes without drugs or special diets. In his life-changing book, Dr. Bowersox offers a recovery protocol that is based on extensive research and has proven successful in his daily medical practice. For many physicians, Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue syndromes are mysterious and difficult to treat, which is why you may have been to multiple doctors and still don't feel better. Dr. Bowersox validates the physical causes of your symptoms and explains how his recovery protocol has been shown to resolve underlying body imbalances, thereby freeing you from the symptoms of Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue syndromes. His proven recovery protocol: Uses NO drugs Requires NO special diets Has an average recovery time of less than four (4) months Is very cost effective

Helped in Colorado.......2006-06-09
When I read The Bowersox Protocol for Fibromyalgia And Chronic Fatigue I realized that there were other Chronic Fatigue sufferers. After years of pain, due to a back injury, I get run down and start a vicious cycle of not sleeping well, have no energy, feel run down during the day, and so on. The homeopathic approach has been natural and successful in breaking this cycle for me. Thank you Dr. Bowersox, for your many years of research and developing the help so many of us need.

Excellent - the allergy/sensitivity testing is on the money.......2003-03-20
This book led me to read the ingredients on my toothpaste. Everyday, twice a day, I was sabotaging my health by brushing my teeth. Although Toms of Main toothpaste is a really great toothpaste (my dentist noticed my cleaner teeth), it is made with Xylitol - which as explained in the ingredients list is derived from Birch. I read the label on my toothpaste after using the testing techniques and finding not only a weak muscle, but that my whole arm went weak (from just holding the tube of toothpaste). According to my allergist Birch is my worst allergy. I no longer feel like falling asleep during the day (at least in the mornings after I would brush my teeth) and at night I am sleeping better. I am working on the Candida and other allergy issues now. Some of the directions get a little confusing but even his basic exercises are very helpful.
This book is a must read for anyone interested in health.......2002-12-04
This book is a must read for anyone interested in health, not just those with allergies or candida. It contains information you could spend years searching for plus insights from the author you will not find anywhere else.
I use the techniques in the book on a daily basis to increase my mental clarity and physical stamina.
If you are sick or just want to stay healthy and feel great, get this book.
A Great Guide For Getting Well.......2002-10-10
In the course of my more than 13 years of battling with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, I have read literally hundreds of "health books". I have come to judge these books on whether or not they contain useful, practical information, and if applying the information results in a significant improvement to my health. After reading this book and following the principles it explains, I went from spending days to weeks at a time barely able to get out of bed, to working fulltime and resuming a normal lifestyle. This is one of the very few books I have ever read that effectively addresses the usual collection of otherwise "incurable" chronic illnesses, which have become so widespread. I would wholeheartedly recommend this book for anyone who is seriously interested in overcoming one of these chronic illnesses. Wishing you the best of health!
The most complete book on ecological illnesses........2002-09-27
I suggest that all readers with ecological illness buy the 4th edition. Prof. Rochlitz is a genius in the way he explains ecological illness and why so many people don't get completely well from either orthodox or wholistic medicine. He makes many suggestions throughout the book of things you can do to get well on your own, though he does caution that it is important to get to the root of the problem and not treat the symptoms. I know his ideas /techniques saved my family thousands of dollars in doctor bills and educated me about many bogus protocols that were only complicating my health.
As a teacher, I would also suggest this book for any parent or teacher who has children with learning problems. Prof. Rochlitz is a world leader on Brain Integration techniques. His suggestions should be standard in every regular and special education classroom.
The writer of the previous review obviously didn't read the same book I read or she couldn't quite grasp the ideas articulated. Actually she reviewed an older edition. Her advice doesn't make sense and is entirely out of context. The book isn't a recruiting tool to visit Prof. Rochlitz. Her mention of antifungals and parasites clearly demonstrates her ingorance of the topic. Furthermore her list of other books suggest some of the last things seriously ill people need.
I suggest readers who want more information read some of Prof. Rochlitz' recent articles in the medical journal Townsend Letter for Doctors and Patients or visit his website wellatlast.com.
extremely informative but not very helpful.......2002-08-18
The author is very knowledgeable about candida and allergies and all the symptoms that they cause. He is even correct that you have to get more exercize, adjust your diet, eat no sugar so you won't feed the candida, etc.
The book also suggests energy balancing of numerous types. These may work but are only temporary as the author himself states
unless you go to his clinic to be treated with kinesiology and antifungals. I was under the impression this was a book to help yourself not a 250 page advertisment on why you should go to his clinic.
I have been down the take the anti-fungal road before and this is only temporary as yeast and parisites are opportunistic and only hang around if there is wastes (undigested food, toxins, etc)
to eat.
Four books I would recomend more are:
"Why grass fed is best" by JO Robinson
"Nourishing Traditions" by Salley Fallon
"The master Cleanser" by Stanley Burroughs
and
"The Wonders of Colloidal Silver" by Dhyana Coburn
The first two listed are about the role the modern diet has
in Chronic illness. The third tells you how to clean your body
of toxins and the last is about a super non-toxic, anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, anti-microbial, anti-virus, anti-whatever is bugging you liquid. It was used before the almighty anti-biotics
were invented.
There are better choices.
Book Description
Personal testimony from patients and their medical practitioners frames the resounding message of this book: there are a host of alternative therapies available to help people with chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia, a condition of chronic pain. An important resource for people with these conditions, this book also covers health insurance and disability benefit considerations.
Customer Reviews:
Superb Book!.......2005-01-24
I found this book to be hugely informative and helpful. The authors give readers information from both the physicians' and patients' point of view. Definitely recommended for FM and CFS patients and the people who care about them.
This book not recommended.......2004-10-17
I found this book to be very disappointing. All this book basically is is interviews with doctors and patients in regards to different treatment alternatives. If you are trying to TREAT fibromyalgia, i definitely do not recommend this book. If you really want someones gripes and groans about fibromyalgia you can get that point of view FREE on line on Fibromyalgia web sites. If you want alternative treatments options- try The Fibromyalgia Nutrition Guide, although this book is all about nutrition, it is very easy to us and very helpful- All us fibromyalgics know about homeopathic stuff already such as massage and Alternative Treatments just reiterates that and has patients and doctor points of view on Massage, Chiropractic care, Etc....
Superb Resource!.......2000-05-01
It's so rare to read a piece of nonfiction, particularly medical nonfiction, and be able to tell that the authors truly care. This is one of these books! Many thanks to the authors for putting it together so beautifully!
Excellent book!.......1999-12-19
I really enjoyed this book. It is easy to read and provides a wealth of information about various ways to treat and cope with fibromyalgia. It is particularly nice to hear the stories and experiences of others who have this illness. This book is unlike any other out there and I want to thank the authors for writing it.
A wonderful resource for anybody with either FM or CFS.......1999-11-08
This is the book that I've been trying to find for years! The authors have done a wonderful job of interweaving the stories of patients with the helpful advise from practitioners of all kinds. It is great to have the full range of treatments from both conventional medicine as well as alternative & complementary medicine. The stories from the patients are so validating to hear. It helps to know that I am not alone in my daily job of managing this illness. The resource guide and bibliography are invaluable. Thank you SO much for writing this book!
