Negative Positive
Title: Pseudo-Science
Review: The basic problem with this book is that, like much of what passes for health knowledge, it is based on anecdotal evidence. Thus, because a particular therapy seemed to help, or even genuinely helped, one person, does not make it a valid scientific method. There is no doubt that eating more vegtetables and fruits is good for you. Fasting may have some good benefits. But the book is woefully lacking in any valid scientific proof. For instance, there is a claim that fasting helps reduce build-ups in coronary arteries. If this is true, it would be fairly easy to run a scientific study doing before and after scans of those arteries using the lastest, non-invasive procedures that are available. Beware of following advise merely because someone has a MD degree!
