I have read large portions of this book, and it is clear that Dr. Truss speaks as an experienced doctor and medical professional. The writing is clear, and his research is compelling.

His suggestions for the patient about when to suspect candida albicans, as well has his approach to the diagnosis of Superficial Candidiasis Syndrome (SCS) are very clear. Also, Dr. Truss outlines his treatment of SCS, including his recommended diet and suggested recipes. The diet alone is worth the price of the book!

Those in the medical profession will find interesting his discussion of food allergies, autoimmune diseases, pregnancy, end-organ responsiveness, and autism.

If you've never heard of Dr. Truss or his groundbreaking medical work with regard to yeast and its effects on human illness--it is best to get it right from the source. This book is the best place to start. Highly recommended!

Seemingly unconnected symptoms may be a sign of systemic yeast problems. Prevalent use of antibiotics has contributed to chronic candidiasis--the "missing diagnosis" of the book's title. I have several friends and acquaintances who were treated by Dr. Truss, and the treatment plan prescribed by this book (based on a low-yeast diet) turned their health around.

You can tell by reading this book that Dr. Truss wrote it with the patient in mind. The terminology is easy to understand even for non-medical people.

This book constructs some very good arguements. It is reader friendly and contains information that will lead you to further investigation.

I found this book just OK. It was a little too scientific and I felt it was written more for the physician than the layperson. There was much more info in the books written by Dr. Crook although I picked up a couple of bits of info in this book that were not in the books written by Dr. Crook. All in all, I feel you could skip this one and get all the info you need on Candida from the books written by Dr. Crook.
