Vital Information,

This review is from: The Doctors Book of Food Remedies (Paperback)
This book is loaded with the ancient wisdom explained with modern science, and should make complete sense to any rational human being. I recommend it to all who are seeking alternative healing. And I also recommend Alison Savitch's "Rawfully Good" video for people interested in how to prepare gourmet raw meals that are simple and delicious.

If there is one major error, there are going to be more.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Doctors Book of Food Remedies (Paperback)
I am very disappointed with this book. A perfect example is this: Writing about honey they say that honey contains propolis, a compound in nectar that kills bacteria. Absolutely not so! Propolis is resinous substance collected from the buds of certain trees by bees and used as a cement or sealant in the construction of their hives. If they let just one unchecked or untrue fact go into the book, you have to be suspicious of the whole book.

Go to your doctor!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Doctors Book of Food Remedies (Paperback)
I can't believe people can justify their stupidity with this stuff. I lost my mother because she insisted on treating herself "natually" I suggest you go to a real doctor and stop trying to save money or treat yourself with a bunch of "tips" from someone who's probably only piecing together information to profit from your ignorance.
