Breaking Through the Untouchable Diseases [Anglais] [Broché]

I came across this book by chance while looking for another book. Interestingly enough this happened as I am being tested for Sjogren's, an illness which quite frightens me and an illness I knew hardly anything about except that it is quite serious, debilitating and there is no treatment! So, as you can imagine, I welcomed all the information that would put my fears to rest! I am still waiting for the results but in the meanwhile I finished reading the book and even phoned Gerald Green on a Sunday afternoon, also because may husband has a health issue as well which he might be able to treat. After a long conversation we agreed that I would phone his assistant, Karin Taylor, the next day. Karin was also most helpful, patiently answered all my questions and we hope to get the supplements we need very soon! By the way, the ship all over the world!

The bottom line is that so many people are suffering with no answers, many of them are dying, so suppose this gentleman really can cure the most awful illnesses like cancer, Sjogren's and many others, why isn't his method being given all the attention it deserves? I have no way of knowing whether what he says in the book is true, of course, but I also have no reason to doubt him, so I intend to follow the diet (we had already changed a lot in our diet after reading Barry Grove's Trick and Treat: How Healthy Eating is Making Us Ill) and will take his supplements for a while because even if I don't have Sjogren's I am still convinced that I suffer from Candida even if I can't find a doctor who will test me for that! As far as his method not being used in mainstream medicine.... A lot of others aren't, so this is no different!

This book is easy to read, written in an easy, colloquial language and should be read not only by those who are suffering from a horrible illness but also by those who have Candida symptoms (I think that by now most of us have them) and even people who are healthy because you never know what the future will bring! If you need more information on Candida another very good book is: Beat Candida Through Diet: A Complete Dietary Programme for Sufferers of Candidiasis.

Gerald Green really needed an editor for this book; however, I know enough about the impact of diet on health to recognize he may have found the cure for many incurable diseases. I only wish he had lived to further his research and continue to help people. Unfortunately, it seems he succumbed to a disease he had cured in others: cancer. I find this a little mysterious; however, questioning that fact is not the point of my review. If you suffer from any illness, you might benefit from reading this book. I got the book for Christmas; and, it opened my eyes. While I think it is partially wrong on its diet recommendation since I don't believe meat, fish and poultry are at all conducive to good health, its assertions regarding candida formation and the detrimental impact of natural sugar might hold the key to why my vegan diet wasn't the cure-all I expected it to be. Now, I'm back to experimentation and will probably switch to a raw green foods diet in addition to trying to come up with my own combination of supplements to improve health. I really wish Mr. Green had published the formulas for the triple alliance cures he developed. If the book had contained this information, I would have given it a better rating. Although the book is the source of my eureka moment, that isn't enough to warrant more than a 3 star rating. I now must research the impact/uses of herbs such as bayberry and many others when I would have preferred to be able to access all the necessary information from this book. The good thing here is that one knows there is a solution even if the path isn't crystal clear.

A must read for anyone with an autoimmune disease or cancer with no family history.
