Rating:  Summary: I will follow this program the rest of my life Review: "Prostate Health in 90 Days" is excellent beyond words. On receiving a copy ordered from the Web and scanning it briefly, I gave it to my ranch manager. He is a young, strong man. On his vacation he read the book and followed your program as you presented it. He was completely healthy but had been told that 90% of all people harbor parasites as the book also says. He effusively prasied the program while urging me to follow it. His ebullience convinced me to try it. I did and it is to my mind the single most important health program one can follow. I convinced my local health food shop to carry the book. It is something I will follow the rest of my life.
Rating:  Summary: Prostate Health in 90 Days Review: A practical guide to containing prostate cancer with a strong possibillity of curing it. In addition, the natural remedies suggested in the book have brought much comfort to my prostate area apparently as a result of lowering the inflammation. Clapp's suggestions are the only ones that have accomplished this. Some of the suggestions are a little vague but can usually be clarified by going to the web site sponsored by the author and/or joining his email list. With this book in hand one does not need to have his prostate cut, burned, frozen or seeded.

Rating:  Summary: Good overview of alternative medicine with new discoveries Review: At first glance, Prostate Health in 90 Days looked like another good overview of the many avenues of alternative medicine -- written to apply specifically to those with prostate problems, and useful to both men and women interested in healing any condition or achieving optimum health. As I began to actually read the book, however, I found that Dr. Clapp has included some fascinating, yet completely common sense and scientifically validated ideas that even I -- a dedicated patient of alternative medicine -- had never heard of before. His program is designed to cleanse and heal the body through basic good health practices that are the cornerstone of the alternative health movement, and in addition he includes new information on monitoring one's "biological terrain" and preventing illness of all kinds through achieving the proper body pH. One caveat to the reader...in his zeal for completeness, Dr. Clapp also includes some optional practices that may be considered "far out". Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. This is a good smorgasboard of resorative alternatives to the often permanent damage of drugs and surgery, from which the reader can pick and choose what is appropriate to construct their own healing plan.
Rating:  Summary: an important book Review: Books like these are invaluable to all men,especially considering that prostate cancer research receives only 1/3 the funding that breast cancer receives.So men are pretty much on their own.Fortunately,there are resources for men,though not as plentiful as for women.The current view that mens health is less important than womens and that men are dispensable,makes it vital that all men take an interest in their own health and in the health of men in general.You and I can make a difference!I encourage all men to participate in prostate cancer fundraising events whenever possible.Prostate cancer events are few and far between,and seldom ever publicized or promoted like breast cancer,nevertheless,seek them out and get involved.I have,and I feel good about it.
Rating:  Summary: Risky advice...at best Review: I am surprise this book was published. It is full of inaccuracy and questionable advice. For example the author states the biopsy is painful. I had one last week with no pain whatsoever. He also states that his doctor made an appointment for him to have surgery the next day. There is no way that would happen. The colon must heal for several weeks before surgery can be preformed and the urologists will want to discuss treatment options. Prostate cancer is very slow growing therefore it is not urgent to remove it immediately. There are many, many more examples. It is scary to thing how many people may have missed their chance to remove their cancer and instead followed this book. Once the caner goes outside the gland there is NO turning back and NO cure is possible at that point. A cure is 100% if the glad is removed in time to stop the spread. Want to risk your life with this publication???? There is no clinical evidence to support the authors assertions.
Rating:  Summary: Misinformation Review: I am surprised...[this book was clearly misleading]. Mr. Clapp's advice is dangerous in that readers may defer seeking competent medical advice based on his recommendations. Certainly his claimed credentials warrant question. Instead of the required minimum rating of 1 it should be a minus 5.
Rating:  Summary: the book that changed my life Review: I bought the book immediately after being diagnosed with prostate cancer in January this year. It gives a reliable, holistic, serious approach to this disease and proposes an alternative 3 month program, definitely worth trying before one goes in for any of the classical methods. I have done it and felt better after the first week. It truly changed my life. One can go on and be operated on after completing this program, the result being certainly a better general health. The book led me to the discussion forum, very valuable for me, too. The author is a survivor of prostate cancer himself (well documentated on the net) and a learned person. The whole book is something totally unusual , very clear and doesn't push the reader towards any kind of decision except to change his style of life for the better. I strongly recommend it.
Rating:  Summary: Turned off Review: I bought this book for a loved one who was diagnosed with prostate cancer and has since been cured through surgery. He got to the parts about massaging his prostate and meditating several times a day and was turned off by the book. I have not read it myself, but am returning it since it will not be read further.
Rating:  Summary: A curious collection indeed, most of it good Review: I fasted for 7 of the prescribed 8 days in Sept. 98. The results amazed me; at 60, I hadn't felt so good in years. However, as pjlynch says, Larry's book is loaded with recommendations strange to most of us. If you have PCa, I think they're worth trying. I've had BPH for 5 years and prostatitis since Feb. 98. I don't think anything in Larry's book will cure or diminish these problems. But the fast and cleansing were worthwile for me (even the prospecting thru one's stool in search of parasites). I plan to fast again in March. I had the BTA test and found I was pretty acidic. I'll have this done again after 6 mos. It's an interesting test because of what you can find out about yourself, as Larry says. One thing I didn't like about the book was the uneven footnoting. For example, 2 statements are carefully footnoted on p. 28. On pp. 33 and 196 we read about belt buckles and tight clothing. Altho' a couple of names are mentioned on p. 196, no footnotes citing the sources of this info appear. Another thing I found problematic is that Larry's recommendations can be expensive. The BTA, the doctor's consultation, and the supplements Larry and the doctor recommended were expensive for me, esp. because they aren't covered by insurance.
