Don't let the previous review scare you. The quackwatch guys are the quacks themselves. Barrett, who heads up the quackwatch "research", is not a board certified doctor of anything and has been sued a bunch of times. The book itself is excellent and describes a treatment protocol that works. This protocol brought me back from near death when no local doctor could even figure out what was wrong with me. The protocol has also significantly helped our son who has autism. The "best" specialists told us there was no treatment for our son's autism and he would be permanently institutionalized by the age of 7. However, like many autism kids doing biomedical treatments, including those listed in this book, he has almost recovered. He's now 8 and attends a regular school where he performs on grade level. The treatments in this book work. It's definately worth a look.
I want to reiterate what another reviewer already said: "Don't let the previous review scare you. The quackwatch guys are the quacks themselves. Barrett, who heads up the quackwatch "research", is not a board certified doctor of anything and has been sued a bunch of times." So true! Not only is that true, but any doctor who sets out to provide treatment protocols for patients that do not feed the bloody maw of Big Pharma (which brainwashes the masses into believing that any illness is the lack of one of their drugs!) is guaranteed to at least come under fire if not be set up to take a fall by covert measures.Okay, having said that so that you know I've read the court files and assessed them as a complete set-up, let me now talk about the book.This book is engaging and full of cutting edge science as well as practical advice. Dr. Edelson explains some very complex physiological systems in clear language that even impressed my doctor who said she never did understand it as well even in medical school! Not only that, but Edelson was a pioneer in a field that is now being taken up by other high profile doctors such as Mark Hyman, author of "The Ultra-Mind Solution". They are saying pretty much the same things, only Edelson said it first.Like any other diet or health book, there is a particular focus and some of his ideas and protocols won't work for everyone. But, by and large, Dr. Edelson manages to connect things together in a very comprehensive way, and those people who will not benefit from his approach are, I would think, a vanishing minority.One thing that struck me and convinced me that Dr. Edelson really knew his stuff was his mention of the inflamed blood vessel lumps that appear in the forearms of individuals who suffer rheumatoid arthritis. I've had these lumps for years, I have rheumatoid arthritis, and no other doctor has ever been able to tell me what those lumps are. What's more, they have begun to disappear simply from following the protocol in Dr. Edelson's book. My doctor is even willing to experiment with the anti-biotic treatment for my condition and I'm looking forward to even greater improvement than I have achieved already, and that will be something! I'm already almost 90% free of pain and my good days now far outnumber my bad days!Thank you Dr. Edelson!
This book has all the answers that a newly diagnosed person with any Auto Immune Disorder has in his mind.It answers the "WHY ME" kind of dejection and offers hope .Especially since the Rheumatologists do not spend any time in educating about the illness .This book shows the alternative path and it works.Hepls to take charge of your body rather than being a slave to prescription drugs .
I am a former patient of Dr. Edelson. Over twelve years ago he was the only doctor who so progressively addressed my chronic illness--a myriad of symptoms that no other 'expert' could even begin to understand. Chelation therapy and sauna therapy gave me my life back. Slowly, within one year, a severe chronic illness I had struggled with for eight years began resolving itself and my body began to heal. Today, I manage a mild thyroid condition that remains. It is sad that our corporatocracy keeps the stupidity alive--more and more people are suffering and dying of all sorts of needless cancers and degenerative brain diseases because we won't own up to the toxicity we've created in our own environment in the last 50-60 years.
My opinion: I found that a good portion of the ideas presented for drug-free treatment of AI disease *did* make sense to me; in fact, at one point I have been through some seemingly medically unsound means of getting off all prescriptions for treatment of my diagnosis with Systemic Lupus.The rapid taper and detoxification process I went through was similar in ways to certain methods described in the book. This outside the box thinking I imagine could get a medical professional in trouble with either his colleagues, big drug companies, or even patients that are very ingrained in a specific type of doctor/patient process that they cannot move past.The reasons why there are lawsuits, closed medical centers, and disciplinary actions taken against the author definitely concerns me though. I have seen other outside the box thinkers not have this amount of legal trouble; frankly I think where there is smoke there's usually fire so I have trouble trusting the author and ideas in this book as a result.Bottomline: I would say that I can recommend examining the ideas in the book and then weighing and investigating what you feel comfortable with, along with consultation and advice from your doctor.
