Thought provoking
An excellent clearly written and thought provoking book which makes the reader reflect on many health reccomendations conventionally assumed to be true, without backing evidence.

A useful book for lay readers
I like your finding that if breast milk does not contain Vitamin D, it is because the mother is deficient in this nutrient. The book could be reviewed more rigorously before being published, as there are many minor errors. A good and useful book overall.

Only substance and no BS!!
A must read book for everyone including doctors. It doesn't target doctors or any other community, it just awakens the sleeping conscience of everyone who has ever given any health advice.

Eye opening, a must read for all doctors as well as all patients, especially in India
This book peels off many lies that doctors like to tell you when they don’t want to understand the root cause of a disease for example unexplained weight gain. It’s time for doctors to really act like doctors. Also for people to research and not just blindly follow what doctors say to them.

Not sure what to think about this book
I am sceptical about this book. It’s a waste of money I would say. I didn’t learn anything from it and it’s all contradictory. I am disappointed. It is completely not what I expected. If I could I would just return the book.

Full of information
This book Is essential reading in particular for those interested in their own health. Take responsabilty! This book written by a practising family doctor also gives a busy doctor's point of view with regards to the training and pressures on the average GP.

Das sollte jeder mal gelesen haben
Wenn man sich mit der Materie beschäftigt, ist vieles bekannt. Hier von einem Arzt sehr schön strukturiert und nochmals mit Referenzen unterlegt zusammengetragen was es so an Kritik an den gängigen Glaubenssätzen der Gesundheitsindustrie gibt. Gut zu lesen. Gut zu merken. Mein Hausarzt ist allerdings nicht so ganz glücklich damit ;-) Manchmal erschaudert man, auf welche veralteten Regeln dieser Berufsstand zurückgreift.
