5.0 out of 5 stars Empowering, November 6, 2004

By	Jason White "Jason" (N.Y.) - See all my reviews

After reading Dr. Catanzaro's book I came away with options to explore further. I did not know that there were other treatments that would actually bring healing to the body instead of killing, cutting, poisoning and irradiating. I came away with a sense of empowerment to choose my options in treatment and I will explore this further. Thank you Dr. Catanzaro for your work!
