What You Don't Know May Be Killing You!

Arrived on time Good book

This fantastic book--no cliche--changed my life, especially the way I eat and how I see food, among other things. Also I stopped using antipersperants like Sure which I had previously used for many years and later had my underarm itching (a WARNING signal). I developed a lump in one of my underarms as a result. Dr Colbert is a lifesaver and his advice is so obvious and plain at times you're shocked!

This book is an eye opener. I can't believe how lethal the Amercian diet has become--we are overfeed and undernourished-and how uneducated people are about nutrition. I recommend that everyone pick up a copy of this book and follow Dr. Colbert's suggestions. Eating healthy is easier than most people think.I especially enjoyed the sections on mercury poisoning and the Atkins diet. I easily give this book 5 stars!

I found this book to have such detailed information on subjects that most people know little or nothing about. I was surprised to read about all the things that hinder our health. After taking Dr Colbert's advice, my health improved.This is a book that everyone needs to read, it could keep so many people from unecessary sickness that we cause upon ourselves and don't even realize it.

The first chapter "The Menace of Mercury" really grabbed my attention because Dr. Colbert was mercury poisoned from leaking mercury dental fillings. He tells about developing chronic fatigue and becoming jaundiced from the poisoning. He tells how to detox with natural supplements, and how to find a safe biological dentist to safely remove the filling. (But his telephone number for a dentist referral didn't work. Call 1-800-311-6265 for a number that will refer you to a dentist.) He gave a number for finding a MD who knows how to treat mercury toxicity (1-800-LEADOUT). He also told the symptoms of mercury poisoning and how mercury would mess up different systems in your body because "mercury is more toxic than lead, cadium and arsenic!" He said that it messes up the digestive bacteria in the gut, can contribute to antibiotic resistance, and interfere with nerve impulses in the body leading to neurological diseases. He connects mercury to infertility, birth defects, miscarriages, loss of concentration and memory. He gives many more effects and symptoms, but you will have to buy the book. It is worth buying so you can pass it on to someone else and help them. Dr. Colbert said that mercury can cause autoimmune diseases in the body such a "rhematoid arthritis, Hashimoto's thyroditis, multiple sclerosis, lupus and other autoimmune diseases." Since Dr. Colbert is a holistic physician he understands the dangers of toxicity whereas traditional physicians don't even recognize the symptoms. His advice along with other authors like Dr. Hal Huggins has helped me through my time of chelating (ridding) my body of mercury. He told how the American Dental Association refuses to admit that mercury in the teeth hurts people because they are afraid of lawsuits. The ADA says that mercury in amalgam is tightly bound in the filling, but if that is true, how did a medical doctor like Dr. Colbert become mercury poisoned? Dr. Colbert says mercury isn't bound, because he was poisoned when mercury leaked from his teeth. Dr. Colbert is an example of just one way mercury from teeth can poison you. Only one chapter pertained to mercury poisoning. He also told other ways we are damaging our health in other chapters. If persons would take his advice on getting the mercury safely out of their teeth, detoxifying their bodies and using non toxic cleaning supplies they could be on the road to recovery from diseases like chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia. I applaude Dr. Colbert for speaking out on this mercury issue because I was mercury poisoned myself from breathing mercury vapor while a dentist drilled into a "silver" filling. (Go to www.mercurypoisoned.com for my story.) Dr. Colbert will help wake up the Christian community to the fact that "silver" fillings are very dangerous because they are actually 50% mercury. Christians, are you paying attention??? God sent this man to warn you. Are you listening or yawning and saying, "Oh, it won't happen to me." It happened to Dr. Colbert

I've seen Dr. Colbert speak on "This Is Your Day" with Benny Hinn. His book is just as great as his talks. He is a medical doctor who uses a holistic approach to health mainly in a proactive and preventitive way. This book is easy and fast reading. It is jam packed with useful information on what everyday things we can avoid for better health. It includes information on detoxifying the body and gives people a "heads up" on harmful things that we come into contact with everyday that we don't think even twice about. It is a great book and I highly recommend it for people to see what things they are really exposing themselves to every day and what you can do live a healthier life.
