5.0 out of 5 stars fine, accessable work by a pioneering nutritionist, September 8, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Arthritis: Don't Learn to Live with It (Paperback)

Excellent discussion of arthritis and nutrition. Focuses on three possible causes of arthritis: hypoglycemia, food allergies and vitamin deficiencies. The appendix contains an excellent summary of the uses of various vitamins and minerals. Valuable text for any non dogmatic person who considers good nutrition to be the basis of good health.

5.0 out of 5 stars useful: and add others ..., September 14, 2003

By A Customer

...as I said in my June 2003 review for 'Carlton Frederick's New Low Blood Sugar and You,' anything Carlton does is a must-have.

The only areas he falls short in, are those of the psychology of health and healing. Sometimes the compant we keep, the people we know are wrong for us, and are helping to keep us ill. Lifestyle is a factor. Much modern ill-health stems from stress, as much as it does from bad eating, heredity, and other factors. Works on psychosomatic medicine may be useful for some, also. Even the realm of so-called spiritual healing may have much to offer.

I refer the interested, who are wisely trying to 'cover the ground, and leave no stone unturned,' to consult Joel Goldsmith's classic, 'Art of Spiritual Healing,' and Louise L. Hays' 'Heal Your Body,' for some other useful points of view. These may prove helpful in the search for health, in spite of some people's opinions that they are 'nut books.'

Of course, any books on relaxation and stress reduction may also prove useful. One other very useful, recent source is Thomas Cleary's excellent 'Taoist Meditation.' Don't be put off by the ancient oriental religion angle of this title. It is NOT just for fashionable, trendy New Age types, or what-not. You will find this volume quite useful with regards to relaxation and health, just by reading it. You don't have to be a Taoist or any kind of meditator to benefit.

I own 3 or 4 Carlton Fredericks books. Add Dr. Bieler's older, 'Food is your Best Medicine' to your shelf, also. I wouldn't want to do without my copy of that book, either.

See also my recent reviews for Eva Wong's books, and the older classic, 'Japanese Cult of Tranquillity' by Durckheim, for further, non-nutritional information useful for stress reduction, relaxation and lifestyle conduct issues.
