As a cross-reference tool for determining the underlying causes of an ailments, I've found this book to be quite insightful, if not ahead of it's time. For example, I found it very interesting that many of Edgar Cayce's remedies included methods for dealing with digestion-related problems, elimination of accumulated toxins, and restoration of a person's acid/alkaline balance. These factors are increasingly being found to be connected to many of the same diseases that Cayce referenced in this book, from asthma and gallstones, to cancer. In my opinion, his readings went far beyond ordinary common sense, particularly for his day.

This encyclopaedia is a labor of love. It is the easiest, most painless way of finding what Edgar Cayce, the father of holistic medicine, had to say about what ails you. Just look it up alphabetically from Acne to Xeroderma. Should be on the bookshelf of everyone who is interested in Alternative medicine. Lawrence M. Steinhart, author Edgar Cayce's Secrets of Beauty Through Health.

Because Edgar Cayce did not remember any of his healings which were conducted while in a trance like condition, his secretary faithfully wrote every word as they were being prescribed. Because of her dedication to him and his work we have accurate and precise records of each healing. Patients would write back or call and tell him of the success of his medical advice and in that way he was able to continue knowing that his "guides" were trustworthy. Being interested in herbal healing and believing in the ability of certain people to attune themselves to the "other world" and information beyond our present abilities, this collection of just some of Cayce's many healings are educational and remarkable. Cayce had no formal training in medicine allowing his gift as a chairvoyant to help hundreds of people. An interesting book for anyone who wants to learn more about alternative healings and who has an open mind about psychic phenomenon.

The amazing thing about Edgar Cayce was the range of information presented during his channelings. Not only did he correctly forecast many major historical events, he also suggested various kinds of healing as well as remedies for specific illnesses. This book focuses specifically on Edgar Cayce's theories on health. Presented decades ago, many of his theories concerning healing have currently been given great credence.

Add this book to your library. Amazing information form the most influential man of the last 2,000 years.

Lots of Cayce information here. Somewhat wordy, but worth the read. Many of his readings still apply today. Chock full of good information!

I've been a fan of Edgar Cayce for many years and even participated in meditation excercises with some A.R.E.members. This book is a great reference for non-traditional healing. Maladies are listed alphabetically and the remedies include many over-the-counter products which were popular in Cayce's time. Some of these are qualified, but many are not. A glossary of these products and suitable substitutions would have made this volume worthy of five stars. As it is, it comes off as an interesting read of old-timey remedies, and, at least for me, triggers thoughts how my grandparents lived and the limited medicine which gave them comfort in another era.

Great book! and so informative! Came a little slower than I expected, but arrived in great shape!

I wouldn't even consider this book interesting as fiction. The title is totally misleading, there is no useful health information and I would say that some of the recomendations could even be dangerous.

Didnt read the whole book that is why I only gave it 3 stars. What I read was good and I recommend it to others
