Where the Germs Are: A Scientific Safari Review

Where the Germs Are: A Scientific Safari
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I disagree with the first reviewer who gave this book a low rating. I think it's a pretty good overview of the details of which germs cause what illness, and how they're spread.
I think the author does a nice job of handling what could be a highly technical subject. The book is comprehensible to the layperson, yet still difficult enough that you probably ought to have had college-level sciences in order to understand its complexity.
I was hoping that the book (especially considering the picture of the kitchen on the cover) would offer me something new regarding keeping germs and illness away from my family. However, it does not go far beyond the standard prevention tactics of good handwashing and modern sanitation. Good handwashing is particularly emphasized.
Diseases and illnesses such as smallpox and lyme disease and West Nile and herpes are handled in detail. It's a useful and factual introduction to bacteriology and contagious diseases, and includes some historical references, in a readable text.

My children suffered from many food allergies. Our lives were on a standstill before we found out about NAET. Now after treating all known food and environmental allergies, we have our lives back. we go out to restaurants regularly. I don't have to read the fine labels on the products anymore when I shop in the super market. We can go camping, to the mountains, to the ocean without any trace of our past problems. Thank you Dr. Devi for writing and publishing this book.

NAET Say Goodbye to Asthma Review

NAET Say Goodbye to Asthma

NAET can clear even the worst allergies, and help relieve your asthma, if done correctly.
It can happen quickly, or if your allergies were as bad as my son's, it may take some time. The self-help methods in the books work if your allergies are moderate to mild, if you cannot clear them yourself using these methods, then you are probably below 45% clear on those items, and you should see a practitioner. I have learned to do full treatments myself, even on the really bad allergens, just from reading Dr. Devi's books, and Cutler's books, and combining that info. with what I've learned from the two practitioners I've gone to, and the four I spoke with. The practitioners are not permitted to give you all the info. on how it works, and the books do not give you all the "secrets" either, but if you investigate it enough, you can piece it together. (Here are some hints: It's more than just holding it and stimulating the points down the back. It's more than the holding/waiting period and avoidance time, which are essential - there are different levels that need to be checked and cleared on as well.) This is probably mostly for liability reasons, because people with anaphylactic tendencies should not attempt to do those allergens on their own. Just holding the item could invoke an allergic response, and practitioners know how to get around this safely.
If you get only partially clear on an item, and are still below 50% on it, it can actually make your allergies seem worse temporarily. This is called being "stuck on a treatment". You need to go back and finish clearing it the rest of the way. Once you clear an item all the way, you will feel great. Being "stuck on a treatment" usually does not happen on mild allergies, because you are essentially doing a "booster". It does not hurt you to try to clear allergens on your own, but you may need the help of a GOOD practitioner - some are better than others.
When my son and I first started receiving NAET treatments, we were going to a practitioner that didn't get us all the way clear, but we saw enough change to know that there was definitely something to it. I have since switched to a different practitioner, one who does percentages - this makes all the difference in the world!! She is also an RN, so is more familiar with severe allergic reactions, so I trust her more. It is possible to get a strong"ish" muscle test reading when you are at least 50% clear on something, but you may still have problems with the item until you get at least 70% or more clear. (Dr. Devi even says something about this in the patient handbook.) My practitioner treats to 100% on all items, and we are so much better now. (Some practitioners only treat to 50-60%, you may want to switch to another, or self-treat to clear it the rest of the way.) If you can learn to do it at home, like I did, it can really speed up the process.
My 8 yr old son who has been home schooled his whole life due to his severe food allergies, some foods he could not even touch... is now enrolled to attend a charter school this coming fall. This has been an answer to prayer for us in a major way! It works, if you get the right practitioner. We were better on some things, and worse on others until we found someone who would get us all the way clear on the allergens we had. My son has been able to re-introduce apples, chicken, watermelon, oranges, salad, vinegar, many other foods, and even some candy for the holidays. He was also allergic to some of his medications that seemed to make him worse when he used them. Now that he's been cleared on them, he can use them, and gets the full benefit from them. (We are hoping to eliminate the medications all together eventually.) He also used to get welts when cat hair even touched him, but was able to play with a cat for over 20 minutes the other day with no reaction what so ever. We are thrilled!
Some people have asked me how much the practitioners charge. Some are more expensive than others. Our first practitioner was $45 per treatment per person, but our practitioner we are going to now (that we feel does a better job) is only $20 per treatment, $40 for families of four or more seen at same time. There are still others that charge even more. Our current practitioner treats out of her "home-office", so has lower overhead, but she gives a better treatment in our opinion. She is also open to us doing home treatments, and follows up on the ones I have done to make sure they have cleared all the way.
Don't give up, keep trying, and find a good practitioner who knows how to treat you to 100% clear. I am not a practitioner, but I can answer questions based on my experience, or even ask my practitioner on your behalf. Please no junk mail, but for real quesitons, you can e-mail me at rnshormann@yahoo.com. Thanks, and God bless.

Say Good-Bye To ADD And ADHD Review

Say Good-Bye To ADD And ADHD
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I watched Katie Couric today, January 16, 2001, on NBC at 8:00 am news talkng about ADD and ADHD. It broght a shadow of sadness in me when I saw some of those children under Ritalin going through unlimited struggle to lead a normal life and I decided to write this article. Most people do not know that their children suffer from ADD due to food and environmental allergies. If they stayed away from allergens, they may not have to be depending on Ritalin to live.
A friend gave me this book "SAy Goodbye To ADD and ADHD" by Dr. Devi S. Nambudripad. I stayed whole night and read the book. Tears began rolling down my cheeks as I was getting to the end of the book. After all, there is cure for my child's problem! Immediately I made an appointment for my child. Yes, he took almost two years' of NAET. But he is absolutely free of ADD today. Thank You Dr. Devi, for creating NAET. We owe our lives to you. This book will show the reader to make your or your child's journey easy if you suffer from ADD or ADHD. I like to inform parents of other children with ADHD that it is worth reading this book if you have someone woith ADD. Whenever I see articles and negatives comments written on ADD/ADHD saying that it is an incurable disorder and/ or one has to be on medication forever, etc, my heart hurts. When I see many ADD children suffer from the pangs of this illness, and when they end up being ADD adults and lead miserable lives as adults (I know many of them in my circle: school, college, friends, etc.), I feel the urge to shout out to them that "you don't have to live with ADD or ADHD. You have a way out within your reach. If there is a need, there is a way. It is true. Just read this book. Your life will change. You need to get NAET treatments and you won't be the same again." NAET has transformed my child into a normal human being. I am sure if these parents found NAET, many of their children could become normal too. Children are our future. If we could help our children get healthy, we would have a healthy future.

Food Allergies and Food Intolerance: The Complete Guide to Their Identification and Treatment Review

Food Allergies and Food Intolerance: The Complete Guide to Their Identification and Treatment
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
An invaluable reference source that gives a comprehensive discussion of the difference between true food allergies and food intolerance. You will find numerous case histories which help thoroughly explain the ill effects food can have on people. This book explores both sides of controversial issues concerning the symptoms caused by food intolerance, and with scientific data supports the idea that many diseases are related to the ill effects of food. There is an in-depth discussion of Rheumatoid Arthritis, IBS, Migraine headaches, and the use of diagnostic testing. A complete overview of "Bugs in the System" will enlighten all who suspect they suffer from an overpopulation of yeast or unsuitable bacteria in the gut. It will help you uncover food allergies and food intolerances through an explicit step by step elimination diet. The authors have dedicated a complete chapter to explain exactly how to use their three-stage approach to uncover the foods that may be making you feel ill! Stage one of the plan is one month of eating healthy by eliminating foods and drinks that have a drug-like action on the body, such as coffee, tea, cola, chocolate, cocoa, alcohol, sugar, histamine-rich foods and food additives. Stage two is an elimination diet that excludes the most common allergens and Stage three is much more restictive and is designed to help those sensitive to many foods. The authors suggest that your physician performs an examination to rule out any servious medical problems prior to trying this elimination diet. This book is a must for anyone who suffers from chronic, unexplained health problems. It is the most complete source I have read yet concerning the ill effects of food!

Green Housekeeping Review

Green Housekeeping
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The first washing machine inside the door of the laundromat I used to go to in Berkeley was named Cleanliness. The one right next to it was Godliness. I always tried to use those two to make sure my bets were covered both in this life and the next, but I never realized what an ungodly toxic proposition the pursuit of cleanliness is until I read Organic Housekeeping, by the practical organic ecologist, Ellen Sandbeck. The author's wry wit, thorough research, and empirical use of herself, her home, her family, her pets, and her own charming illustrations to demonstrate her eminently sane and healthful approach to housekeeping are solvents tough enough to cut through the greasy buildup of a million commercials for synthetic cleaning products that, as this book shows, not only fail to get things cleaner but slowly kill us while they're doing it. Most of the time, we learn, vinegar, baking soda, and a shot of vodka will do the trick. Full of tips on everything from reducing clutter to cleaning the air you breathe, Organic Housekeeping will dissolve your guilt over never getting things clean or organized enough and save you from having to clip coupons for all kinds of stuff you don't need.
