Reviews for Boosting Your Immunity For Dummies

[wyvernfriend · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

I'm pretty sure that there is actually some interesting advice in this one but it's somewhat overshadowed by a few niggles. I have little or no problems with the Paleo diet and it's principles sound relatively sound., however I have a problem with it being a one-size-fits-all cure for everything. Maybe it is and maybe it isn't. This is also written by two authors with an axe to grind, their biases show.Some of the issues: telling people on chemotherapy/radiotherapy to consult with their holisitc practicioner not their oncologist about supplements.telling people to abandon gluten, particularly if in doubt.having an all or nothing attitude to the dietlacking citations or a bibliography while making very general claims. "everyone knows..." is not proof, it's bad science.recipes that are time-consuming, nothing that fits into my lifestyle for breakfast or lunch.the good:healthy food, I can't argue with most of their theory, it appears sound.Overall it made me think, it didn't make me want to jot down any of the recipes and it made me want to write a rant about correct eating and absolutism in life.
