"I was very impressed by the chapter about physical activities and related effects on health in general.
The author explains in a systematic manner the positive and negative types of physical exercise and training.
I have tremendously enjoyed the therapeutic techniques included in this book, especially those that improve the quality of our health.
As a matter of fact, I began to use some of these techniques, and already I feel much better.
A superb book, and a great health guide.

"This is the most complete book I've seen on the subject of natural medicines. It is comprehensive and extremely well written. I haven't been able to put it down and found myself studying it. I have learned so much it may bring me out of the natural medicine novice category. Natural Health, Natural Medicine: The Complete Guide to Wellness and Self-Care for Optimum Health"

"I'm considered by others to be pretty up (and fairly fanatical) on health issues, though I do go for the occasional bag of chips. This book made me feel like a downright slacker! It also strikes me as being very, well, of the American culture of fear. Everything is terrible and going to kill you. The air you breathe, the chemicals on everything... you should bathe in filtered water?? Come on!
We all know it's not an ideal world, but this book will have anyone taking it too seriously in a real tizzy as you can't do a thing without causing yourself and those you love some grievous bodily harm.
It's interesting, but take it with a grain of salt. Oh wait-- NOT SALT!!"
