Heal Your Pain
I checked this book out of the library about 9-10 years ago. I had bought a walker and a cane because of pain in my knee. I dreaded every step I had to take. I’d tried injections directly into the knee and had taken Bextra, which is now off the market. I didn’t do everything that this book recommends, and I committed initially to try it only for two weeks. By that time the pain had gone from a 10 to a 2, and I will never go back to eating the way I used to eat. I can still walk three miles most days, and I lead an active life. The pain in my lower back improved, too. Before, I couldn’t work in my flower garden without taking four ibuprophen to dull the pain. Now I rarely take any for any reason. A lot of people won’t want to cut back the meat and the sugar, but they just don’t hurt badly enough yet. Also, without trying I lost 25 pounds. My BMI is now right where it should be. It’s the inflammation that causes the pain. You can’t heal the underlying condition, like arthritis, but you can lessen the inflammation. That’s what causes the pain. Scientists have now connected inflammation with many diseases, like cancer, heart disease. I bought this copy for a friend.

Beware inflammation creating foods!
Great book on the causes of so many diseases and illnesses. Everyone who eats a normal western diet should read this book. This book shows how eating a normal western diet of fast food burgers and french fries creates some much inflammation in our bodies, any disease or illness is possible.

Hit the nail on the head!
I recommend everyone should read this book. This would be a great book for high school science or health majors. If more research went toward inflammation, a better understanding of many diseases would be understood and COULD be prevented IF insurance and pharmaceutical companies didn’t rule our health system.

Inflammation, yes — Cure, no
This is a clear and well-written discourse on what inflammation is, and the role it plays in a multitude of problems;it is convincing and sincere. It does not, however, offer much in the way of guidelines for how to address the problem, beyond offering some basic “good health” prinicples. In all fairness, there may be no clear “cure” for the condition — but if so, the title is a tad misleading.

Glad to have read it.
not that informative, just seemed to mostly confirm what I have already experienced at the age where inflamation occurs. I am glad I read it, though.

Outdated research and some statements in the book not backed up with any evidence.
