I recommend this book
Natural Cures "They" Don't Want You To Know About
By: KEVIN TRUDEAU
Book Description
Kevin Trudeau blows the lid off a nest of deception and double standards concerning general and individual health in this new book, "Natural Cures 'They' Don't Want You To Know About." Kevin has risked government prosecution to bring you the full story of an intricate conspiracy.

From the retail supermarket outlets of huge, publicly traded corporations comes processed, manipulated, engineered "food products" â?? produced by other wings of the same corporation. These artificial, toxic treats are then sold with the blessings of the Federal Trade Commission and Food and Drug Administration â?? government organizations charged with safeguarding the public good â?? laying the foundations for future disease and chronic ill-health for the consumer, and a guaranteed source of revenue for the medical and pharmaceutical sectors.

Kevin reveals the shocking truth of how drugs â?? which are being advertised directly to the consumer, pushing their use to an all-time high â?? are actually the cause of illness and disease climbing to near epidemic levels.

And, though it sounds dire, Kevin offers a light in the darkness and directs the reader to scores and scores of alternative therapies, medical practices, philosophies and â?? most importantly â?? potential cures that help your body regain its natural state of health and vibrancy.

So follow Kevin on an amazing journey through the behind-the-scenes world of corporate sponsored "nutrition" and "health," and learn about "Natural Cures 'THEY' Don't Want You To Know About."

About the Author
Kevin Trudeau is fast becoming the nationâ??s foremost consumer advocate. Adopting as both his business and personal mission statement a vow to "positively impact the whole person," Kevin has been involved in a vast array of business enterprises that marketed or sold products that he personally used and believed in 100%. Having been personally responsible for over $2 billion in business world-wide, Kevin knows from personal experience how big business and government try to debunk individuals who promote products that could hurt the profits of the giant multinational corporations. Kevin spends most of his time spearheading a website that promotes education about natural healing therapies; and a website that exposes corporate and government abuse and corruption. Kevin is actively pursuing lawsuits against the individuals, corporations and government agencies that take advantage of the average consumer. He is also dedicated to the formation of various foundations to pursue these goals, and has donated much of his fortune for that purpose.

- It exposed the government, FDA, healthcare, and major corporations for thier greed.
- Talks about how healthcare spends millions of dollars, yet people are getting sicker every year, cancer risk is climbing, diebeties, and health issues are worsening.
- How the medical profession, in partnership with the pharmaceutical industry, h as a huge intreest in keeping you sick rather then healing you (for the money)
- all the poisons in foods that people eat daily.
- the real method to lose weight, keep it off, and ultimately be healthy.

Jay, are you a fan of Kevin Trudeau? I'm not. Everything I've read about him--information that wasn't put out by Trudeau himself--leads me to believe he's an aggressively self-promoting snake-oil salesman, who, like many people in similar racquets (like Anthony Robbins, for one, in the business world) takes tiny bits of information that have some validity, then puffs them up and wildly exaggerates them. Then he makes completely untrue claims about other natural and "revolutionary" cures. (He loves the world "revolutionary.") Then he promotes those concepts as his original, earth-shatteringly important thought.

Kevin Trudeau holds no accredited degrees from any legitimate educational institutions. He's been repeatedly banned by the FTC for misleading so many people in his ubiquitous infomercials. And he has a criminal record. But he's like a televangelist phoenix, rising from the ashes. He always finds a new way to slip around regulations and truths, and off he goes again, selling his baloney-sauce to people who don't know better and making millions.

Thanks for the alert--and the promo, if that's what it was. I'm not a Trudeau fan. In case I left any doubt about that.

^ Sorry to hear that, thought you'd be a fan.

I just finished reading his book and it really made me think. I had a lot of truth in it thought, a lot of intresting factual information. I don't know...

Has anyone else read this book?

Here are a few links people ought to read before they jump on the Trudeau bandwagon:

http://www.mlmsurvivor.com/felon.htm
http://www.consumeraffairs.com/news04/trudeau_informercials.html
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Trudeau (scroll down to criminal history)
http://dir.salon.com/story/books/feature/2005/07/29/trudeau/index.html

To be fair--and as a corollary to what I said earlier--much of his info does contain bits and pieces of truth. For instance, his claim that the drug industry doesn't want people to get healthy has some slightly twisted validity. The pharmaceutical industry--like our American health insurance system--cares more than anything about making or, when it can't be actively made, saving money. If by some happenstance people happen to get well along the way, that's great news. But the goal of health isn't their primary mission.

It's important to note here that Trudeau's primary mission is similarly mercenary and is far less about improving people's health than about making a quick buck.

I'll see if I can nab a copy at the library and see what I think of the info itself. I'm sure some of the cures may be worth trying. They usually are. But I'd be very wary of cures that point me to Trudeau-manufactured products, supplements, or services.

I read it and i thought it was a pretty good book. I did some of the things he said and i havent been sick in almost a year. All i have done is just drink more water and eat healthier pretty much. It's a good book and makes some very good points.

Kevin Trudeau is nothing more than a infomercial host...

He's a confidence man using mass media to propogate the con on a big scale. He's been banned by the FTC, yet he keeps weaseling his way around them and coming back. None of that is shocking, really; con men have been around for thousands of years. What's so surprising is how many people fall for the con. So many that he lives in a VERY nice house, paid for with money milked from the sick and the needy. If there is a Hell, then there is surely a very special place reserved there just for him and others of his ilk.

In case the above paragraph was too ambiguous, I am also not a fan of Kevin Trudeau. Heh.

I havent read any of his literature.

I cant give an opinion one way or another.

But if you want the truth read this short bit of info right from the Union Of Concerned Scientists of the United States and make up your own mind.

Now use your search box to get this right from the National Institute of Medicines own mouth.

Its a good Book, But he trys to make too much money off you after you buy it.
He tells you about the natural cures and flushes, but to learn how to do them you have to buy a subcription (sp) to his website, which for a yearly or lifetime i forget which is it, its like $499.99.
But theres many free ways to learn them for example heres a good site
www.curezone.com Type in a health condition and you'll find many natural ways and forums to talk about a natural or homemade cure.
Really interesting, some of the flushes or cures date back to early civilization in Egypt. Dont BUY THE BOOK!!!!!! (good book about the FDA, but no cures)
