I read this book way back when it first came out and then passed it on to my sister. I am ordering it again to reread it. It is so apropos today with the 3 year ongoing 'COVID Tyranny.'

The author, Trudeau, was immediately attacked by TPTB....the usual suspects. The message in this book is clear, informative and eye opening.......I don't care who 'the messenger' is. Yeah they railroaded him for supposed financial scams and he served some jail time. Just goes to show you, "Don't challenge the Big Medical/Pharma Industrial Complex."

There is a wealth of good information in this book. Don't let 'WIKI' decide what is good for you.

This book is a worthy read for ANYONE who has any doubts about COVID and the vaccine...that isn't a vaccine at all.

He de reconocer que solo logré leer completamente la primera mitad del libro y me costó varias semanas conseguirlo por que entre lectura y lectura dejé pasar un tiempo prudencial. Llegado cierto punto y ante las dudas de dejarlo o empecinarme en terminarlo opté no por practicar la lectura rápida, si no más bien una mezcla de lectura ultrarrápida y lectura “canguro”, dando saltos de varias páginas, hasta llegar al final.

Entre los consejos para que consigamos una vida saludable el autor nos recomienda no leer el periódico ni ver las noticias por que están llenas de negatividad y alterarán el PH de nuestro cuerpo. Además nos dice que es sabido que los periodistas se inventan las historias y nos las cuelan como noticias. Muchos pensarán que podría incluir su propio libro en esa lista de historias inventadas que se venden como otra cosa.

I approached the best selling "Natural Cures 'they' don't want you to know about" with a healthy dose of scepticism. After all, should we really take advice on healthy eating from a convicted fraudster? But I've concluded that Kevin Trudeau is the ideal person to write about the total scam that is the pharmaceutical industry and its packaged food counterpart.

"Natural Cures......" is basically a tirade against the culture of drugs and packaged foods that have taken over the modern world. Trudeau explains how this culture of drugs and snack foods (and some other products) is undoubtedly responsible for making us sick in many ways. He goes on to offer ways to reduce toxins in the body and cure or prevent many diseases.

A lot of what Trudeau teaches us is nothing new for most of us (snack foods have numerous chemicals, GM food loses much of its nutrition, etc.) but he goes to great lengths to make us realise just how serious the problem has become, just how extensive the lobbying and coercion of politicians can be and just how misleading drug or food advertising has become. So many lies and scams are exposed in this publication that there will be at least one revelation for everybody.

After making all this clear, Trudeau goes on to offer tips and ideas - many of them beautifully simple - on leading healthier lifestyle to clear the body of toxins and "never get sick again".

A lot of the advice is superbly simple yet often something we would never think of (Buy organic fruits and make a fruit shake every day, don't buy any product with ingredients you can't pronounce, etc.) and very passionate. Trudeau clearly practises what he preaches and has very extensive knowledge of the industries he discusses.

It's true that some of the author's ideas make him his own worse enemy. Statements such as "Animals never get sick" and "Wearing a magnetic ring will help you eliminate chaos" simply invite his many critics to knock him. But there are so many articulate, practical and genuinely heartfelt arguments and suggestions in this book, I get the impression many critics have based their reviews on their dislike for the writer.


This book did what "Super Size Me" and "Fast Food Nation" failed to do. It made me realise the dangers of my diet (as the aforementioned works also did) but it also gave me the inspiration and impetus to actually make a positive change. I've done two juice fasts and a water fast since I got this book two months ago. I've taken up many of Trudeau's ideas and I feel far better for it.

Highly recommended, if only to see what the fuss over this NY Times bestseller is all about.

The author of this book once claimed in one of his informercials that he was 70 years old, when in fact he is only 44, and if you follow his system, you will be as youthful as he is. Kevin Trudeau is a thief and a scam artist who writes fictitious books in order to make a living for himself.

Terrible book. There were definitely a few good points buried in the redundant babble and typos. Unfortunately, they could have been made in a quarter of the pages in this incessant monologue.

Do not read this. It will be a waste of your time. All it does is direct you to his web site and ask for money. Scam

This book does have some good advice and it did open my eyes to some of the shady things that go on behind the scenes in the food and drug industries. The biggest issue I have with it is that the author treats everything as black and white and ignores the fact that there are many shades in the middle.

It wasn't the worth book ever. I'm a writer and I noticed things like: his grammar was on point. I didn't see any sentence structure issues. This also is not as out-of-touch with reality as his second book, which I couldn't resist reading out of sheer curiosity. They offer this book for free at book stores so I figured what is the worst that could happen. He has ideas but they fail the science test.

Note: Because this book was very repetitive I read most of it but skipped through some chapters. I read the whole "Cures" chapter though.

PROS
- Most of the "cures" make sense
- Loved the story in the beginning about his heart defect
- Does expose the ideals of the pharmaceutical/health industry, as well as the 'health/research' organisations that are supposedly fighting diseases
- Reinforces the idea that you don't need drugs/surgery to cure yourself of illnesses

CONS
- Incredibly repetitive
- Every time you want to hear more details about something you have to go to his website and pay to become a "private member"
- Lots of grammar mistakes
- Arguments aren't always well structured
- Not sure how much research he's done or how qualified he really is (I don't mean being an MD, but just because he's rich doesn't mean he knows everything)
-No reference list, some of his claims aren't necessarily backed up
- Wish he mentioned emotions more, most of his info is about the physical body with no relation to feelings

Overall, he has good ideas and I believe if you follow most of his suggestions you will definitely get healthier and experience less infection, disease, etc. I would recommend this book to people who don't know much about the pharmaceutical industry, people who want to get healthier naturally, or who are interested in learning about health.

Some of the information in here is important and true. People should be wary of drugs and ear good diets. I do think the FDA is a conflicted or corrupt agency. I also believe chemicals in sunscreen do contribute to cancer, BUT sun exposure also causes skin cancer. That last part is not a con by scientists and telling people to stare at the sun every morning or evening (“sun gazing”) is dangerous and a better solution than getting as much sun exposure as possible, is buying a more natural sunscreen. Mixing good stuff with nonsense is dangerous and risks people not trying the good stuff. This book would also be only fifty pages long if you take out the plugs for the author’s website and other repeats of information.

I bought this book hoping that it would help me with Migraines. Instead, it gave me one.

Kevin Trudeau is maddeningly repetitive. It's been a while since I read this one, but I recall the 1st quarter of the book sounding like this... I'm paraphrasing here:

"Did you know that there are natural cures for almost every ailment and illness you can think of? Oh yes, there are, but there are people who don't want you to know about them. These people want to keep you sick for their gain. But, let me assure you, there ARE natural cures that are available almost everywhere. AND, I know what these cures are! They are natural cures that can be found in nature, but they don't want you to know that."

...and so on.

He goes on and on about the benefits of the "health care" industry and government keeping people sick, which of course, he says is all for profit. He also makes it abundantly clear that the "they" who want to keep these natural cures under wraps also want to shut him up about them.

Finally, the last part of the book contains an index of illnesses that can be "cured" by the natural ingredients previously alluded to, but Trudeau then negates everything he just went on and on and on about by saying that these cures aren't actually guaranteed to cure anything.

I tend to agree with him on one point, which is that it does benefit pharmaceutical companies and HMOs etc to keep people sick and needing their help, but that is fairly self-evident. If they cure the sick, they lose money. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that one out.

Anyway, my advice is, if you want to read this one make a trip to the library and pick it up. Don't waste your money on the book.

The biggest pile of poo I have encountered in a long time - just a long unsubstatiated rant, really badly written. Don't read it, don't touch it, WALK AWAY!
