As the editor-in-chief of Prevention Magazine Health Books, Bill Gottlieb created the 10-million copy self-care bestseller, The Doctors Book of Home Remedies, and was the author of the 1.5 million copy alternative health bestseller, New Choices in Natural Healing. Now, Bill has once again created a groundbreaking book-a book that can help anyone safely, successfully and naturally self-treat 160 everyday and serious health conditions: Alternative Cures. To write this unique book, Bill interviewed over 300 of America's top natural clinicians-doctors, herbalists, nutritionists and more. You'll discover over 1000 of their most effective, practical and safest natural remedies for an A-to-Z of health problems, from arthritis, back pain and high cholesterol, to repetitive strain injury, weight gain and yeast infections.

Plus, every chapter of Alternative Cures has a guide to the best alternative and conventional professional care for the condition it covers. And, you'll find essential safety information for every remedy featured in the book. Once you look at it, we think you'll agree: There's never been a more useful, reader-friendly, get-better book about alternative health and healing than Alternative Cures.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Just What I Wanted
    Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2006
    Verified Purchase
    I bought this book strictly based on the high feedback rating it received here at Amazon. I am so glad to say that I am absolutely not disappointed.

    The book is full of practical "cures" for almost every ailment your family will have. The advice is so practical that many of the needed items are in my kitchen. I particularly love the advice in the Headache chapter. The peppermint oil has helped my headaches already!

    Every ailment and the advice given for it, is backed by the opinions of medical doctors. Even if you don't usually care what a real MD has to say, it is nice to know that the advice given in the book has been reviewed thoroughly.

    This was very interesting, very surprising, and very good. They actually work, those I tried. I hate to admit it, and yet I must. There were 3 I used, embarrassed to say it was so long ago, that I don't recall. This is well worth reading, I do think everyone could learn at least one very helpful, and healthful, way to rid yourself of something that you never thought of.

    I like the book and refer to it quite a bit. It said it was a new book but, when I got it there was a piece of paper from a note pad used as a book mark (I guess) and the binding edge was all dented up. I didn't pay that much for it so it's not a big deal, but if I had paid full price I might have been a little upset.

    Dieses Buch dient mir zum erweitern meines Wortschatzes in der engl. Sprache. Die Ratschläge, die gegeben werden, sind leicht umzusetzen und teilweise noch aus Omas Zeiten bekannt. Allerdings konnte ich auch einiges für mich umsetzen. Wer keine Chemiekeulen zu sich nehmen möchte, ist dies empfehlenswert. Ich finde es ok.

    Borrowed this book from a friend. Found it so helpful that I took it to my Doctor who had not been successful in treating me for Heatburn. Wished I had one of my own - went on line and was fortunate to get a decent used copy. Would recommend your company to anybody. Oh, delivery was very speedy. Impressive!
