Georges M. Halpern (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: April 2004

Over 4 million Americans are diagnosed annually with peptic ulcer disease. Many learn to live with the resulting heartburn, acid reflux, and stomach pain by taking over-the-counter antacids, but these products help only temporarily. Ulcer Free! provides an unbiased review of the various treatments—both conventional and alternative—that can stop the symptoms and actually heal the ulcers. Finally, it introduces the breakthrough nutrient Zinc-Carnosine, which can be used in conjunction with other treatments or alone.

This review is from: Ulcer Free!: Nature's Safe and Effective Remedy for Ulcers (Paperback)

"Ulcer Free: Nature's Safe & Effective Remedy for Ulcers" by Georges M. Halpern, MD is one of the more useful and informative books on the subject of peptic ulcer care. This book is written from the viewpoints of the doctor, scientist and teacher, all of whom the author is. Though concise, there is room in this paperback for chapters dealing with Peptic Ulcer Disease, NSAIDs and Ulcers, Lifestyle Causes and Factors, Symptoms and Diagnoses, Conventional Ulcer Treatments, Alternative and Complementary Treatments, A Natural Approach to Ulcer Treatment and Conclusions plus a helpful Glossary and extensive references.

WHAT REALLY SETS THIS BOOK APART:

"Ulcer Free" examines the likely candidates for treatment that you have tried or may have yet to try. Different medicines and classes of drugs are discussed and evaluated based on their efficacy, long-term effects on the human body and side effects. Even Traditional Chinese Medicine is included. Most importantly, a revolutionary new treatment using Zinc-Carnosine is examined in depth.

Scientific studies are referred to through the entire text, and as books written for lay people go, this book includes some pretty good science. Add to this, it reads fast and understandably while addressing the concerns of the patient. In an hour or so, you will be able to find answers to many specific questions about medicines, symptoms, dosages and alternative treatments as they existed in 2002.
