Found a copy of this book at my dentists: so had to look it up: here is the first review:
***** Radical Medicine: Cutting-Edge Natural Therapies That Treat the Root Causes of Disease.
Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase
I am completing my 3rd year of medical schooling and this book is definitive, well written, and provides concise references to support its many arguments. Most Americans are largely opinionated about our medical system and many have not taken the effort to truly educate themselves about it. Costs for medical treatment in this country are astronomical as the industry reaps huge profits from a population that is developing increased incidences of chronic illness. The USA consumes over half of the world's total output of pharmaceutical drugs and billions of dollars are spent on research geared to patent more drugs while Americans are not getting healthier. This landmark book provides a wealth of information on the latest developments in medicine. It is geared to both physicians and non-healthcare educated individuals that want to control their own destinies, which includes taking control of one's health, and not relying on pharmaceutical-based treatments that mask symptoms. The chapters dealing with mercury toxicity and bio-therapeutic drainage deserve careful reading. I clearly recall my dentist telling me that mercury was absolutely safe some 30 years past even though I had him remove all of my mercury-containing fillings. In addition, in those times, the typical MD argued brainlessly, that nutrition played a small role in health maintenance. They also argued against inflammation, or its byproducts, as being the chief instigator in many chronic complaints. In addition, many argued against the legitimacy of the role of probiotics. Today, these are widely accepted facts. The point is that traditional medical schooling in the USA is light years behind research in quantum mechanics and biophysics. Thus, medical students become physicians and professors that maintain the old paradigms/status quo. Today's typical physician relies heavily on expensive diagnostic tests (that often produce questionable results based on mass statistics when real medical practice is geared to the individual, and is utilized to promote healing, not suppression of symptoms. This book provides a comprehensive, well organized system of information that can help individuals select proper, effective healthcare.
