5.0 out of 5 stars He knows what he's talking about, October 7, 2005

By	C. MacIntosh - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book was very helpful. I was goint to spend $600 doing a detoxification, including supplements and hydrotherapy. But I decided to buy Dr. Jensen's book and try the 11 day detoxicification he writes about on my own. It was a great success. I feel healthier and learned a lot about my body. I also lost 14 pounds and look foward to staying on this healthy path.

4.0 out of 5 stars death begins in the colon, January 9, 2001

By	dan johnson (Waukesha, Wi.) - See all my reviews

Dr. Jenkin's new book is excellent reading for anyone who wants to get on the right road to good health and healing. On the last page of chapter 1, Death begins in the colon, Dr. Jenkins makes a powerful statement about your digestive track and why you should be proactive in taking good care of it. If you want to live a longer and healthier live, I recommend you read this book to get started down the right road to good health.

4.0 out of 5 stars Always Right, March 19, 2006

By	A. Crisp (Melbourne, Australia.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I purchased this book some time ago because I already owned a number of other books written by Bernard Jensen, only to find out I needed this books advice when I found out I had leaky gut syndrome. The book makes not mention of the disease as it hadn't been diagniosed when it was first written, I was going to do a full course of 12 Colonic Irrigations and spend a fortune on naturopathic supplies, i'm not totally cured but I am 100% better i.e. the sugar/alcohol cravings are gone, memory is better, energy levels are better etc
