4.0 out of 5 stars Not just an advertisement!, September 3, 2004

This review is from: Activate Your Immune System: Natural Substance Provides Ultimate Support (Paperback)

I do not agree with the other reviewer. Although this book certainly touts "beta-1,3-D-glucan" as an amazing and effective aid to activate and boost your immune system, it also provides an easy explanation of how your immune system works, explained macrophages, T-Cells, etc. I thought this book was fine and helped to explain a lot of confusion and mystery about our immune systems. It also emphasized using Vitamin C with the beta booster. It explained the benefits to our skin and how our skin is actually the largest immune system organ of the human body.

1.0 out of 5 stars Commercial advertising, September 17, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Activate Your Immune System: Natural Substance Provides Ultimate Support (Paperback)

This was the most blatant commercial advertising in the form of a book that I have ever seen. I was searching for real information on the immune system to help with my research and this book is 100% about a product they wish you to purchase (ANOTHER COST!). I should have demanded my money back. Originally, it did not say it was about a "natural substance".
