Kevin Trudeau's - Natural Cures "They" Don't Want You to Know About

Not my photo.

I have to mention I haven't finished this book completely yet. But I think I get the gist of it. To avoid getting sick/diseases the author, Kevin Trudeau, is advocating a natural, healthy lifestyle. One free of drugs (both prescription and over-the-counter) with plenty of exercise and eating only organically grown food (fruit, meat, vegetables, dairy etc.)

Though I think he's a bit fanatical at times, a lot of what he says is plain common sense (like avoid eating at fast food restaurants and living as stress-free as possible). Most of us know what's good for us only we don't do it.

He does go way overboard on talking about how the pharmaceutical companies and the U.S. government and many other health care agencies aren't there to find cures for you. They want you to be sick. That's how they make their money (by providing products that only relieve the symptoms). If they found a cure to the common cold or cancer or whatever and let everyone have it they'd put themselves out of business. It's a point he hammers home relentlessly.

I can't vouch for some of the advice he gives (like using magnetic rings or going to see a "bioenergetic synchronization technique practitioner") because I really have no idea if they're helpful or not. He's completely against seeing traditional doctors though. And he's against getting vaccinated (which I don't agree with).

He says the body can heal itself (which I believe is true). If you cut your finger it will heal itself in time. Taking Tylenol or any other medication won't fix it, it may only relieve the pain. Or taking products like Buckleys or Benlyn won't cure your cough or cold. They'll only help relieve the symptoms (which I believe is true too). You have to go to the root of the problem and fix that to feel better. He says that most of our maladies are caused by our poor state of health (which I believe is mostly true too).

He's right about us consuming too much garbage too. He says traditional grocery stores pretty much sell crap and he's not far off the mark there. If you read the ingredients on any of the processed goods they sell you'll see a long list of chemicals and other additives there. I agree when he says to stay away from them.

He also says most fresh fruit, vegetables and meat (fish, chicken, beef, pork etc.) that you get from a regular grocery store is bad too. Because a lot of them a genetically modified and/or have many other chemicals and things sprayed on them to help them grow bigger faster and/or keep bugs or other things off them. He advocates only buying food from an organic producer/seller (which would be okay if you had that kind of money).

That's as far as I've gotten in the book. If there's anything else of note, I'll be sure to pass it on.

For now... eat your veggies, exercise, don't get stressed out, don't buy overly processed "food" from the grocery store and try not to eat too much fast food crap.
