I read Kevins first book and although some of the information is repeated in this sequel it has a lot of important information that everyone should know to stay healthy. What I love about his books is it is crammed with so much that you can't find in one place. What I learned from this book that stuck out in my mind the most? That Rumsfield (yes Rumsfield) pushed the FDA to approve Splenda as safe even though there was evidence that it is not. Seems that Rumsfield has money in the company that created the chemical that is supposed the be "all natural"
In prison for fraud. Go figure. Total scam artist who could have done good in the world but instead ripped people off with sub-par filth. Pretty expensive book for the fire.
Not as good as the first book. Some passages are boring and repetetive. However some chapters and ideas were worth it. This is not a book about health only, it's also about the health system and government corruption. I think more people need to be exposed to such information because many don't have a clue!
This book in my opinion is a useless ..It is very poorly written ....It is a very long boring book that does not reveal anything secret..The book is of questionable value and all the info in it can be obtained free from a medical website on the world wide web or your local library...
A friend said that I should read this book and gave it to me. I read it and I marked it all up both good and bad, however somebody wanted the book and I gave it to them, and never got it back. So I can't give it an honest rating at this time because all my notes are gone. This is a brand new copy that somebody else gave me!
You know, whether or not you totally trust this guy (and I'm not sure that I do), he makes some VERY valid points. We do over-consume synthetic chemicals and our bodies do not know how to deal with chemicals and that makes us sick. To me it sounds logical. His personal life aside, I think the principle of what he's saying rings true.
I caught part of an informercial with Trudeau and wasn't all that impressed with his spiel, but I decided to see what he had to say. Some of what Kevin Trudeau states in his book is good advice (avoid fast foods; avoid heavily processed foods; eat organic whenever possible) but it's all drowned in a sea of conspiracy theory and New Age psychobabble. The way he demonizes science and medicine turned me off completely; I say this as a transcriptionist who's worked in the healthcare field for over 10 years.
His 'facts' aren't quite as factual as he claims they are. Page 76, for example: "Cancer incidence was less in the vitamin E group." He then breathlessly claims that the headline should have read "Vitamin E cures cancer!" Wait, what? Since when do the words "was less" equal "cures"? Is he suggesting that a person with a Clark's level III melanoma should simply take vitamin E and wait to be healed? That is idiotic.
He also regurgitates the medical myths of electromagnetic chaos causing cancer (without references) and the link between autism and vaccines. If you are writing a nonfiction book and you are making specific claims, you must be prepared to back up your claims with facts, statistics, actuarial tables, etc. Making a bold assertion that vitamin E cures cancer without providing relevant data is meaningless.
He also states, on page 104, to do a Google search for "natural diabetes cure" and the results will show products and research showing that diabetes can be controlled. The headline for this section of the book? CINNAMON CURES DIABETES. Mr. Trudeau, as the proud owner of several dictionaries, let me inform you that "controlled" does not come close to meaning the same thing as "cured."
I finished the entire book, but he completely lost all credibility with me when he wrote, on page 11, "I've been to Area 51 in Nevada. Area 51 houses most extraterrestrial artifacts, including a working spacecraft and dead alien bodies. I've seen these things with my own two eyes."
Ask yourself if you really want to take healthcare advice from a man who is delusional enough to believe "The X-Files" was a documentary."
I have been trying to follow his advice in these books and I love the results. I feel so much better and I know that I am not of the blind people trusting the FDA and the Government to tell me the truth. I am so much more better off having read this book.
This book adds on to the first one Kevin Trudeau wrote. In this book he gives all the information that the government prohibited him from giving in the first book.
