Dr. Joseph E. Pizzorno, ND

President, SaluGenecists, Inc.

Editor-in-Chief, Integrative Medicine: A Clinician’s Journal

President Emeritus, Bastyr University

Chairman, Board of Directors, Institute for Functional Medicine

Seattle, WA 98125

Dr. Joseph Pizzorno, ND is a transformational leader in medicine. As founding president of Bastyr University in 1978, he coined the term “science-based natural medicine” which set the foundation for Bastyr to become the first accredited institution in this field anywhere in the world. This validated that medicine which promotes health rather than primarily disease treatment could be credibly taught, researched and practiced. As co-author of the Textbook of Natural Medicine (first edition 1985, 5th edition 2020) he helped established the scientific foundation for health promotion medicine. With over 100,000 copies sold in 4 languages (over half to MDs), it not only helped reestablish naturopathic medicine as an important part of the healthcare system, but also provided the scientific foundation for the transformational fields of integrative and functional medicine throughout the world.

A naturopathic physician (licensed in WA state since 1975), educator, researcher and expert spokesman, he is Editor-in-Chief of PubMed-indexed IMCJ, Board Chair of the Institute for Functional Medicine, founding board member of American Herbal Pharmacopeia, and a member of the science boards of the Hecht Foundation, Gateway for Cancer Research and Bioclinic Naturals. He was appointed by Presidents Clinton and Bush to 2 prestigious government commissions to advise the President and Congress on how to integrate natural medicine into the healthcare system. He is author or co-author of 6 textbooks for doctors (most recent Clinical Environmental Medicine) and 7 consumer books (Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine [>2 million copies in 6 languages]; most recent, The Toxin Solution).

Personally proven excellent protocols for alternative cancer treatment.
Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2016
Verified Purchase
The most complete and useful book I have seen as far as cancer complementary treatments. Includes helpful protocols, vitamins and mineral recommendations for different situations, suggested menus etc...
My wife had a pancreatic cancer detected in May 2009, treated totally and successfully by alternative means only. We depended heavily on the treatments described in this book, plus the very effective cancer fighting Beljanski products (look up Pao V-FM, Ladybel, Prostabel and RealBuild, also available here at amazon). I consider the combination as very effective: the Beljanski products directly fight cancer cells with no side effects, giving time and opportunity to the complementary protocols described in this book to bring the body back to a healthy condition. The outcome is true healing, where the organism is finally strong enough to control the cancer by itself again.
At least that was the case with my wife, who never received chemio, radiation or surgery and has until now over six years with an excellent quality of life, instead of the 3 to 6 months normal and painful prognosis.

excellent book but somewhat of a misnomer
Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2011
Verified Purchase
I still give this book five stars, but as far as treating cancer with natural medicine, I don't have the courage. However, this book does discuss what to take during conventional treatment, which I applaud. I believe in combining conventional and natural treatment. I was forced into a purely natural approach when my 86 year old mother's oncologist wanted to "watch" her stage one lung cancer without further treatment (she had targeted radiation in 2009 which shrunk the tumor) when her PET scan turned out showing renewed cancer activity. Not wanting to "watch" her die of cancer, I implemented an intensive natural approach using the suggestions in this and other books. Nine months and two PET scans later, her cancer has stabilized and her two PET scans both showed reduced cancer activity. I give her a great multivitamin, curcumin, ginger, OMEGA 3 combination oil, quercetin, resveratrol, lutein, green tea capsules, and soy isoflavones and NAC with are synergistic with the green tea capsules. So far so good. Don't forget the fruits and vegetables, because everything I read talks about how important these are.

ALterntive Medicine Kills Cancer
Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2007
Verified Purchase
This is a great book for anyone looking for a better healthy way to kill and fight off cancer. Plus this book actually gives you a complete cure for Cancer. If you have cancer or know someone who has it, they will treasure it as they beat cancer holistically rather than using chemo. I bought this book on the advice of my Nauropathic Doctor when I was diagnosed by an oncologist with having Stage 4 Terminal Cancer and had over 200 cancerous tumors in my body. I elected to go the alternative route and thank the Lord less than 7 months from the day I was diagnosed terminal Stage 4, I was and still am completely Cancer -Free.

Stop buying into the mumbo jumbo from the MD and the FDA which state only chemo and drugs kill cancer, there is a cure and this book tells all. Believe it, I did!

I love this book! Purchased it for my niece when she was diagnosed with a Stage 4 cancer 7 years ago. She is cancer free! She gave it back to me when I was diagnosised with a Stage 3 cancer last year. I got through all the treatments in an amazing way following this book! I worked my job through all of my treatments and walked 2 miles every day! I then passed the book to a friend with advanced cancer & bought myself a new one. The advice is amazing and easy to follow. I researched everything they put in the book and it seemed accurate based on my findings.

Ordered a new one as gave old copy away to someone. At the time quite ground-breaking and well researched book. Choc-full of sound, well thought out pointers and advice. Sometimes the details of how cells work and the body can be heavy going, but overall this is one book that could also be titled 'How the things you eat (and chose NOT to eat, and the way you think and live can really help your body function waaaaaaaaaaay better than it does now'. Vital book to inspire thinking carefully about what we put into our bodies.

In my view there are better alternatives
Reviewed in Spain on March 31, 2013
Verified Purchase
In my view this book does not see "he forest behind the tree", however it sees the tree that other authors do not even see. I could not end reading it, because there are many other books on food (and supplements) for cancer much more interesting (say Max Gerson's books or Ann Wigmore's books). However, if you are healthy, if you do not have any background knowledge on food and supplements and if you have spare time, then it may be worth to read it.

The book was delivered within the time if not sooner. It was in very good condition like new but at a fraction of the price. Good client service is rare these days and it is so freshing to see that it still exists with this business.

My mother currently has cancer and I know many others who are using conventional treatment. This may help you through with less side affects or issues.
