Unexpected Recoveries is a holistic wellness guide for those who have been diagnosed with a terminal illness or medical condition. While doctors may not able to offer a cure for these illnesses, patients are able to take steps towards healing their bodies and minds. Author Tom Monte combines modern medical know-how, ancient healing practices, and macrobiotic dietary guidelines in order to provide a comprehensive and inspiring guidebook for healing. Rather than concentrating on a specific disease, Monte's Seven Step program can help people suffering from: cancer, heart disease, kidney disease, chronic pain conditions, Crohns disease, degenerative bone conditions, and more. This is a powerful book that offers hope, purpose, and a proactive plan to those who are seriously ill.

Editorial Reviews
Review
"Over the past 25 years, health writer Tom Monte has helped many leading figures of natural medicine tell their stories. When you see Tom Monte's name on a book, you know it will be sensible, informative and well-written. Now, with Unexpected Recoveries Monte has entered a new dimension. He proves himself to be not just a medical writer but a medical philosopher of the first order. If you are suffering from an intractable illness, such as cancer, you must read this book. It goes beyond the usual welter of pills, portions, remedies and diets to an understanding of the principles of health."
--Ralph Moss, author of the bestselling books The Cancer Syndrome and The Cancer Industry

By Severe Illness Survivor "Ralph" (Alabama) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Unexpected Recoveries: Seven Steps to Healing Body, Mind, and Soul When Serious Illness Strikes (Paperback)
Tom Monte's book is a book written from his heart that details 7 steps involved in the healing process involved in recovering from a severe illness. Cancer and Cushing's Disease are among the illnesses written about. The book is both inspirational and self help. It provides a diet to follow and recipes conducive to recovery from severe illness. Tom talks about 12 people, 4 in detail that recovered from illnesses they were not expected to and then gleans the lifestyles, diet, exercise and other healing techniques that contributed to their recovery. If you are recovering from a severe illness or supporting someone who is....BUY THIS BOOK and read if from cover to cover!!!

This review is from: Unexpected Recoveries: Seven Steps to Healing Body, Mind, and Soul When Serious Illness Strikes (Paperback)
This is a really brilliant book. Inspiring, informative, well written, easy to read and immensely helpful. Basically it tells you everything you need to know to take care of your health. If you do what this book says you should get the best result out of whatever health profile you start off with. There are not many books that I have recommended over and over, bought copies to keep, to lend and to give away - but this is one.
