5.0 out of 5 stars One of the BEST books I've ever read!, June 30, 2004
This review is from: The Pursuit of Life (Paperback)
Nothing about the cover or the fact that it's a smallish 223 page paperback book with a copyright of 1993 would lead most folks to pay a second look to this book. Yet, in my way of thinking, this is literally a masterpiece of pursuing life the right way.

Dr. Chiu-nan Lai did cancer research at the U of Texas and the Tumor Institute for some ten years and has evidentially learned very well how efficient the human body is at fixing itself if only given the right tools.

She manages to combine all the right philosophy and natural techniques --- things that are simple and for the most part easy to accomplish --- into this great book in a way that anyone can use it as coach to enable their own mind, spirit and body to fix what's wrong.

You are what you eat, is a main theme that Dr. Lai covers with chapters on natural foods for the body and mind. She goes on to show us how eating raw food can and will cure most disease if we just give it a chance.

Combined with a good mental attitude, some meditation and traditional Chinese Chi Gong exercise we can work miracles in bringing ourselves back to health --- oftentimes without doctors, surgery and harmful medications.

Of course every body is different and not all people or their health afflictions respond in the same way. Still, given half a chance, the human body is very well equipped to overcome years of neglect and punishment ---- if ---- and this is the big step --- we are able to do what must be done.

The challenge for most in starting and maintaining a healthy way of life is not unlike the challenge for most in starting and maintaining a diet regiment.

Except that this is no diet. This is a way of life that our flesh responds to in purely positive ways.

This book is meant for anyone who is serious about taking control of his or her own health.

Here's to your health.
