I will read this over and over and try most of his suggestions PRN. I mean so far he has revolutionized my life with other writing and speeches. His suggestions on other authors to read alone changed my perspective on pretty much everything. For instance the original text of Napoleon Hill’s Law of Success in Sixteen Lessons I have read over and over and learn something mind blowing and life altering each time. So yes, my plan is to continue learning as much as I can from sources like this here fellah and any other illuminated souls willing to teach us hidden truths.
This book totally opened up a whole new chapter in my life. It made me look at the drug companies in completely different ways. This book just happens to be the reason why I am doing an argumentative about the pharmaceutical companies. It's to bad that I can't use some of the material in the book because most of it is based off of opinion. I would recommend this book to someone who likes homeopathic remedies, and despises the FDA and Pharmaceutical Companies.
Lots of hype over this book, bought it for $1 so I thought I would read it. It's vague and since he writes like a doctor, but only "plays one on tv" they don't allow him to make health related books anymore. Read at your own risk...he's no smarter than the average joe.
I don't like to spend money on a book unless I know for sure that I will love it. I requested it from the library and spent four hours reading a book that basically told me that the government and the drug companies all want us to be sick because drugs do not treat the root causes of an illness, but rather the symptoms.
My main disappointment was reading thoughout the book that I would have to join his website [http://www.naturalcures.com] in order to get the needed information on these natural cures.
This is the book that started it all for me back in 2005. It exposes the corruption in government and Big Food, and teaches you how to be a more savvy consumer and steward of your health. Author Kevin Trudeau discusses everything from the common toxic ingredients in our food to natural remedies for a host of diseases and ailments.
Have you ever wondered how the chlorine and fluoride in your tap water are affecting your health? How about hydrogenated oils and trans fats in the food supply? Do you know what the two reasons are that a person becomes ill? These are just a few of the hundreds of nutrition and health questions that are answered in this book.
Kevin Trudeau does an excellent job of giving step-by-step lists that detail how to clean up your diet, lose weight, and naturally detoxify your body. Natural Cures “They” Don’t Want You to Know About gives you the information you need to overhaul your thinking about health and nutrition. It is filled with actionable information on the hows and whys of reaching your health goals. If you are brand new to learning about how Big Food, Big Pharma, and government are affecting your health by manipulating the food supply, this book is the place for you to start.
This book is chock full of valuable information. Most of it I knew, but I've been studying health related lies and truths for years now. This is a book that every person in this country and even on earth should read. The vast majority of people are SO unaware just how much they have been lied to, and their foundation of beliefs are mostly false or severely skewed.
Looking at the negative reviews, it seems like people read this wanting a list of cures for specific things, but he is trying to bring awareness in ALL areas and it would be tedious and a disservice to the world of information available to simply write a list. He provides all the general knowledge and sources for further research. He even says several times people can email him personally with any questions! People are just lazy, and reviews like that can even be written by paid shills. This is why I bumped up my review to 5 stars.
I was given this book as a present and I groaned when I opened it, knowing full well that the guy comes across as a crackpot on TV. How could any of this stuff be true?
However, I read very carefully the documented story towards the end of his efforts to market a healthy bread for weight loss...and I was horrified. I even verified elswhere that this court battle actually occurred.. and it did! One more reason why something being stamped by the FDA means so very little in regards to safety. Read this section before you read anything else and you can't help but beimpressed.
Now I won't go so far as to say I am a complete convert: you have to subscribe to the website and frankly there's just not enough information there to keep me going back and paying once a month, but Trudeau is spot on with his accusations that we have been poisoning ourselves in this country. While we were once a great country with some great nutritious food products, now we are at the mercy of corporations trying to get too many crops out of a field with some dangerous fertilizer!
Say what you will, but I changed my diet in several ways, including going to organic produce when I could. I lost more than 15 lbs that I had given up on and my stress level decreased. My doctor asked me what I was doing differently when my blood work improved. When I told her, she smiled and agreed with me. Now when I bring her an article, we discuss it and sometimes she tells me about things that work.
The bottom line is that everything can't work for everyone, but this book is a lot better at helping people get lots healthier than they were.. especially if anyone was like me and not caring a lot about what I ate. It's not a cookbook,but it does giveyou things to explore and I, for one, am grateful.
I liked this book. The information is good but I hated how if you "really want the information" you have to join and pay online to get the "actual" information. It's very repetitive and slams drug companies and doctors pretty well.
This book is not for everyone, it is not for close minded people. It is not for people who are afraid of the truth! Our food IS poisoned and the Pharmaceutical companies are also poisoning us! The author does know what he is talking about. It is easy to read so that everyone can understand it. I was lucky to be given a second copy and because I have one already I gave it to a neighbor, who was happy to get it and be better informed. The FDA only has to list a 'few' ingrediants, they leave many others out! Many that are put in our food to make us want to eat more, to give us health problems and make us fatter than we are! YES: Read this book IF your ready for the TRUTH... NO: do not read if you have a closed mind and cannot accpet the truth!
Yup, this book is poorly written and rambles on and on. However, I know from personal experience that what he is saying is true, for the most part. It could be helpful to someone just figuring out that much of our food and medicine is full of poison. I don’t, however, think joining Scientology is an important part of one’s health and the constant attempt to sell you more things is a put off and makes him seem like a scam artist.
