A cancer-related checkup is recommended every 3 years for people aged 20 to 40 and every year for people aged 40 or older. A high dietary intake of vitamin C has been shown to significantly reduce the risk of death from heart attacks and strokes, as well as all other causes including cancer. Many clinical and experimental studies have clearly demonstrated that stress, personality, attitude, and emotion are etiologic or contributory in suppressing the immune system as well as leading to the development of many diverse diseases. Regular exercise has been demonstrated to provide benefit to individuals with immunodeficiency diseases, particularly through stress alleviation and mood enhancement. Melatonin exerts significant anticancer effects, especially against breast cancer. Vitamin E not only improves insulin action, it also exerts a number of beneficial effects when taken at dosages ranging from 400 to 800 IU, which may aid in preventing the long-term complications of diabetes.

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐Just what I have been searching for. A must have for anyone looking into natural medicine. All Michael T. Murray books are worth owning.

⭐Great informative book. Holistic nutrition student and this is loaded with alot of information. I can see myself always using this book and referring to it in the future.

⭐Outstanding and amazing book! I have bought a couple for gifts. A great go-to for so many things. Written in scientific layman’s terms – by this I mean that people with at least average intelligence can interpret most of it. I am a nurse of 30+ years and 2 degrees and I understood most of it. Some stuff I had to look up to supplement further and better understanding.Overall, it is realllllly informative. The authors have gone to great pains to do a lot of research, it seems. The information seems to be objectively presented. I have started following many of the recommendations and feel much better.At the time I first got this book (I ordered it because it was a great deal and I had interest in the topic) I had just torn a tendon in my foot. The first thing I did was look up natural healing enhancement of such an injury. I found that Tumeric & Bromelain would be helpful, and indeed they were. A month later I came down with an autoimmune condition with vision loss. This book helped me understand these conditions better, how our bodies heal, general wellness principles; and, of course, supplement recommendations for optimum wellness.I HIGHLY recommend this book.

⭐Invaluable guide for anyone wanting solid information on alternative healing…something other than the standard “pills or surgery” that are most commonly used in standard medicine today. While it gives much detailed information about alternate forms of treatment for many diseases, it is written in an accessible style. You don’t need a degree in health care to understand what’s in this book. It’s a great reference. Anyone who believes that the body can heal itself naturally if given the means to do so should read this book. Highly recommended.

⭐This is one of my main “go to” books. It’s a great resource for people who want to start taking back control of their health and start doing some educated self care.

⭐I wish they listed the potential side effects and potential fatal overdoses that could be caused by their suggestions. I was hoping to have a book to replace the need for internet research, but I still have to look everything up online to verify if it is safe to take and dosage recommendations. Unfortunately I had to do a bunch of comments and writing in the book because there was not enough important information listed. And some of their recommendations could cause severe complications. However, with my own work and research included, it is a good book to start off with.

⭐This book is DANTASTIC for the newcomer or pro! It gives simple to understand basics for natural health remedies. It provides uses for essential oils, natural foods, and vitamins to use for all routine and nonroutine medical concerns and problems. It is easy to locate the i formation you are seeking. It provides the information in an easy to u derstand format. Im a beginner in this area and it has provided me a great resource to refer to in a way that is easy to understand. Im able to locate the information easily. I love it!!!

⭐One of the best resources for Natural/ Alternative Medicine I have ever owned. I followed the protocol for breast cancer. And was diagnosed in 2017. Still her and thriving. Thank you looking forward to next edition which will hopefully include how to recover from viruses as you keep your immune system strong in adverse situations.

⭐this book is an excellent complement to your general physician(GP).Your GP is an expert in diagnosis. (S) He has many years of training in diagnosis and acute medicine. The problem is, once the diagnosis is made, the treatment options are determined by the pharmaceutical companies. Your GP has to choose 1 of the options they recommend. Pharmaceutical companies will only work with synthetic chemicals, because these are the only chemicals that they can patent, and protect their profits.Substances that occur naturally in the body, cannot be patented by the pharmaceutical companies, so they are not interested in treatment involving boosting your body’s natural systems. This means that GPs are not allowed to take this treatment approach. GPs have to follow the guidance given by pharmaceutical companies.So if you have a chronic problem, get a diagnosis from your GP. Then consider the pharmaceutical option by looking at the actual clinical trial result to see how effectively the pharmaceutical option works. Most pharmaceutical options only work for around 50% of the population, and Harvard Medical School has researched that around 50% of the benefit of common pharmaceuticals (other than antibiotics) comes from the placebo effect.If you are not happy with the clinical trial results, look at the naturally occurring chemicals that can be boosted by using the foods and supplements recommended in this book. This book both covers the treatment and explains the chemical pathways involved, and provides supporting research evidence.I have successfully used this book to address a number of conditions where the pharmaceutical approach has failed.

⭐This huge book (1219 pages) is very comprehensive – with only one omission that I noticed – that is epilepsy (so I looked it up online). I think this is a useful addition to any bookshelf – and it is really astounding value for money!! I find the nutritional supplement advice, dietary advice and botanical medicine advice to be the most useful of all – thank you Drs Murray and Pizzorno. (I cannot imagine how long it took to write!).

⭐This paperback book, all 1219 pages of it was highly recommended to me by a Health Food guru I visit from time to time. I had expressed a wish to be more informed before calling in by to purchase his products. This book does that in spades, giving descriptions of conditions and the (preferred) road to alleviate the symptoms. I cannot recommend this book enough, it is very good at what it was written to convey. The Seller was prompt in dispatching it too.

⭐This is a book a saw the first time in the library of my University. It is quite big but is wonderful enough to have a place on my busy desk. It really well written, informative and a must have for every practitioner passionated of medicine and naturopathy. It worths the price.

⭐Fabulous book. Extensive information covering a host of conditions. Very thick and heavy, so one for the desk/clinic, not ideal to carry to college!
