5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent choice of a book to learn more about apitherapy, October 8, 2009

Fred Malone has done an excellent job in keeping an interesting take on this wonderful available "alternative" medicine in apitherapy. If you are tired of the medical and pharmaceutical industry ripping you off, or if you are sick and those geniuses can't figure out whats wrong with you, maybe you should really take a serious look at alternative treatments that have been proven over and over again to work! Why don't the doctors and medical industry back it???? Because they cant make money off of something that will make you well permanently, and they can't charge you for something that you can develop free in your own back yard in a beehive! The government hasn't figured out how to tax the beehive in the tree in your backyard yet either, however, they are working hard on it. Good luck, get the book, its worth the read!!

This book is quite convincing (about the benefits of apitherapy), but it is completely anecdotal. The folksy tone of the writing is a drawback that could put off a reader seriously seeking help with arthritis. Anyone at all skeptical or scientific will want data, and there really is none here. I know individuals who have been helped tremendously by apitherapy (more anecdotal evidence), so I am less skeptical than other serious readers might be. The book increased my belief in the benefits of bee sting therapy, despite the lack of data and scientific analysis.

A friend loaned me this book.....read it and then ordered my own copy. Told another friend about it and she ordered a copy also. Had a mild interest in bee sting therapy already. Had my big toes stung at a beekeepers conference and was very impressed with the results. Got relief that lasted for about 3 weeks. The book gives you some instructions on stinging yourself and also lots of true stories and examples. Now sting my own toes.....something I didn't know if I would be able to do.
