5.0 out of 5 stars Germanium fights viruses and wins., August 14, 2000

This review is from: Germanium: A New Approach to Immunity (Paperback)

Germanium can also be found on the market as Ge-132. As Kamen says in
her book this trace mineral can boost immune function, help to fight
viral infections, and ward off allergies and fever blisters (herpers).
It is in the family of anti-oxidants in what it does....

4.0 out of 5 stars A new way for chelation therapy., August 6, 2000

By 

Charla Robertson (Lubbock, Texas) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Germanium: A New Approach to Immunity (Paperback)

More than 10 years ago my mother-in-law sought an alternative treatment called chelation. Its purpose was to use derivatives of metals to clear her arteries of the plaque that had built up in them. Now, I find another use for chelated germanium. It combats viruses, is used in the treatment of AIDS patients, can prevent some cancers as well as diminish the ravages of late-stage cancer. Originally researched/developed in Japan, Kamen gives credence to that early researcher's claims. Since it is the only book available and if you're seeking nutritional supplements to battle one of the above problems, it is worth buying.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding report of findings on Organic Germanium, December 31, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Germanium: A New Approach to Immunity (Paperback)

The book is a wonderful summary of international studies on this plant-based supplement. It is a must read for those suffering from MS, CFS, Lyme disease, and other chronic illnesses - including cancer! We must applaud this author for compiling unbiased material on a supplement that has received unfounded criticism. Another good recommendation would be by Dr. David Jernigan, D.C. "Surviving Lyme Disease Using Alternative Medicine" - which also mentions Germanium.
