This is the third edition of this book that I have owned in about the last 25 years; it is the main source of natural health information I use when I need to know about alternative methods of treatments for health conditions or questions that come up. This book shows different approaches to treatment ie: nutrients & herbs, remedies & therapies, and it gives considerations and recommendations for the disorder, in addition to the detailed explaination for the disorder. I used this book heavily while my children were growing up...sometimes to address one of their situations and sometimes it was able to provide a different perspective on an paper or project they were working on for school! I recently used the book to provide someone information since there was hesitation on that person's part to seek immediate medical treatment; I did tell the person that what the book recommended for treatment did not take the place of seeking medical treatment and I thought they should go to a doctor. In the end, medical treatment was sought & they were told that what had been done on their own had been good, otherwise the consequences of the ailment could have been more severe. It was at that point that I decided I needed to update my book, as I was using the 2000 edition. I have also had a relative recently express an interest in the book, so I update my edition and will pass the older edition on them them.Read full review
The first step in the Obama Health Plan is that a copy of this book should be in every household. I am without health insurance and this book has been my Bible on Healthcare. I've cured a gaul bladder attack without the expensive surgery the urologist recommended. Cost of cure: $14.00. Also cured a serious case of lead poisoning from my work as a stained glass artist by nutritional chelation. 95% of the plan came from this book. This is my second copy of the book. I've owned the second edition for years and it was time to update to the fourth and most recent edition .More than 30% more and updated information. I've given several copies as gifts to people I care dearly about.
This book is very useful and practical. For those who are skeptical of the medical establishment and pharmaceutical “wonders” being marketed so aggressively today, for those without proper medical insurance and who are tired of the impersonal “waiting room mill” of their doctors office. This publication will possibly save you time, money, and prescriptions to drugs that might have serious side effects and little worth to you. My wife and I have used this book for over ten years (from it’s earlier additions) and have just bought another for a young newly married couple who will be living in a remote are in a poor Caribbean country with little access to health care.
This is my health bible. Share this with some one, you truly love. I have. Excellent single source. You can not heal the uneducated. I read this book, daily. Compliments pharmaceutical theories. or 100% natural. Perfect gift. 0:o)

I received this book a few years ago as a gift from my daughter and came to love it. Since then it has been a regular reference book in my home. Several weeks ago my husband received news that one of his family members was quite ill. Because we feel the information contained in this book is so helpful and a more natural guide to healing, we sent this to his family member. They loved it!!
