Review
"Strong medicine! In Beating the Flu, Dr. Williams offers real-world options in the realm of natural and food-based therapies while the rest of the medical profession is paralyzed with fear and inertia in the face of a killer epidemic projected to kill 150 million."
--Ron Klatz, MD, DO, President of the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine, and author of Infection Protection
Product Description
Every year, 36,000 Americans die of the flu and one million die worldwide. The possibility of a super flu pandemic is frightening. If no one has immunity, it could cover the globe in 250 days and conceivably infect 20 percent or more of the world's population of 6.6 billion. The 1918 Spanish flu killed 675,000 Americans and at least 50 million worldwide. The death toll from the bird flu virus--with a 50% kill rate in adults and a frightening 89% in children--could reach an apocalyptic 360 million.
Worse yet, without a vaccine (or adequate supplies), and without enough antiviral drugs, modern medicine doesn't have a specific, effective, and safe treatment for the flu.
This nightmare scenario may not happen, but if it does, it?s essential that individuals and families arm themselves with up-to-date information. Dr. J. E. Williams is an oriental and natural-medicine expert who has used herbs and vitamins to treat influenza and other viruses for more than two decades. In Beating the Flu, he begins not by telling you how to treat the flu bug, but how to avoid it altogether through a combination of good hygiene and super foods that offer the quick boosts your immune system needs to ward off the virus. Should you get sick, Dr. Williams also offers a "natural medicine cabinet - of vitamins, herbs, and minerals that work best against any kind of flu - along with the clinical evidence to back up the remedies.
Dr. J. E. Williams has practiced Oriental Medicine for more than two decades and is the author of three books. Presently, he is the academic dean at the East West College of Natural Medicine.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Clear, concise, and valuable!, Dec 13 2006
By Yvonne B. Richardson - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Beating the Flue: The Natural Prescription For Surviving Pandemic Influenza and Bird Flu (Paperback)
I love the cover with the feather in place of the word bird. Very effective. Your book is very concise, to the point, and effective. I know how difficult it is to pare down words and concepts. But you did that and it works great. It's extremely easy to read. I feel certain that this book will be a success. Many people are concerned about the bird flu and you make it clear how to protect ourselves.
