Book Reviews of The Immune System Cure: Optimize Your Immune System in 30 Days-The Natural Way!
Book Review: Natural immunity
Summary: 5 Stars
This excellent book covers all the basics of developing and maintaining a healthy immune system. The first part deals with nutrition and the immune system and reveals some exciting botanical discoveries that could have a beneficial effect in the natural boosting of the immune system, with particular reference to plant sterols and sterolins. It also provides a basic understanding of what the immune system consists of and how it works.
Nutritional supplements are discussed next, with detailed information on the important vitamins, minerals, trace elements and the natural hormone DHEA. Phytonutrients are the most recently discovered helpers in the fight against disease and aging, and these are treated in chapter 4. They include flavonoids, carotenoids, phytosterols, sterols and indoles and are plant-derived substances with potent beneficial effects on the body.
Chapter 5 discusses the 30-day plan to optimize one's immunity. It also defines the enemy, i.e. foods to avoid. These include animal fats, hydrogenated plant fats, refined sugar and other refined foodstuffs that have been stripped of all their nutritious ingredients. The benefits of good fats like olive oil, fish oils and flaxseed oil are explained, plus other immune boosting plant substances, yogurt and green tea.
The power of the mind in disease and health is discussed in chapter 6, which includes information on the exciting new field of psycho-neuro-immunology, the use of affirmations, healthy breathing, visualization and simple relaxation techniques.
The following chapters are devoted to specific disease states like cancer, autoimmune illnesses, allergies, HIV, hepatitis, tuberculosis and chronic fatigue syndrome. In every case, information is provided on how to deal with these via detoxification, nutrition, exercise, visualization and stress relief.
The book concludes with lists of product manufacturers, resources, references and a thorough index. I highly recommend this work to people who wish to harness our natural allies in boosting their immune systems and fighting disease. Further information on the nutrients and phytochemicals discussed in this book can be found in Life Extension Magazine and James F. Balch's very detailed Prescription For Nutritional Healing.
