Rating:  Summary: A Must Have! Review:
It's over 500 pages of good advice! I strongly recommend "Gary Null's Ultimate Anti-Aging Program" as a practical guide to anyone who wants to live a longer and healthier life. It is a down-to-earth, solid book filled with details and easy to follow advice.
In its philosophy, and attention to detail this book reminds me very much of "Can We Live 150 Years?" by M. Tombak, which is another volume that everyone should read and own. I must compliment both authors for their non-commercial approach, easy-to-do-at-home recipes, and their commonsense approach to all aspects of health and overall wellbeing. I like Null's scientific expertise, but I also like Tombak's attention to internal body cleansing, proper breathing methods, keeping toxins out of one's intestines, kidneys, liver, blood, etc. Check for yourself at the publisher's website www.starthealthylife.com
Rating:  Summary: Healing the natural way! Review: A good book with an effective writing style. He's classified food into different categories which makes it very easy to understand. As the doctor suggested I made soya a regular part of my diet. I now drink 'soy ff e e' a caffeine free substitute for regular coffe that I found on the net at www.S o y co f f e e.c o m, which is extremely tasty too. Soya is supposed to be highly effective against Parkinson's disease. Dr. Null advocates an exercise program and an organic vegetarian diet in conjunction with herb and vitamin supplements to detoxify the body.
Rating:  Summary: The Ultimate Aging Program by Gary Null PhD Review: Dr. Null's writing is excellent in this book which teaches some of the better protocols in the alternative medicinal area. He begins the book by teaching patients to develop and enforce a food journal to diarize their eating habits. Next, he asks that you make a general assessment of the body by looking in the mirror and critiquing noticeable aspects. Graduates of the Null program have reported higher energy levels and better health. The author espouses a number of aging theories in the arsenal of alternative medicine: - eliminate free radicals - reduce the rate of blood flow - regulate the thymus gland to improve T-cell counts - manage the elasticity of lung tissueDr. Null cites some important protocols for classic disease processes. i.e. - anti-Parkinson's disease food groups are asparagus, spinach and soy - alpha lipoic acid boosts the power of anti-oxidants and benefits diabetics - anti-arrythmic foods are lettuce, asparagus, cucumber, radish, endives and oats - anti-arthritic foods are cantaloupe, avocado, cucumber and evening primrose - anti-aging foods are carrots, barley, papaya, cabbage, sweet potato and spinach He reminds us that we can extend life through diet, exercise and phytochemicals. The work is an outstanding addition to any health library in conventional or alternative medicine.
Rating:  Summary: Changed My Life Review: Gary Null is a very intelligent man. His radio program is fantastic, and he is a walking encyclopedia of information. I am amazed at how much information he has on such a variety of topics from nutrition, to politics, to even sports. With that said, let's get to the review.. I too purchased this book after seeing his show on PBS. I had already known Gary, and had heard him talk on his radio program for years before the PBS special. I had decided to purchase the book at the local book store upon seeing the special because it was so convincing. I got home, and dove right into the book. I was greatly disappointed at how disorganized this book is, as I am with a lot of Gary's books. He seems to big a HUGE fan of footnotes, and posting results from various trials and protocols from peer review journals. There is very little information in this book that actually teaches you how to Anti-Age. Upon completion of the book, and getting nothing out of it, I thought I might have read it wrong, so I read it again. To my dismay, I was incorrect. This book is certainly not a wealth of information by any means, and you can get more out of listening to Gary's radio program for 10 minutes than you can get from reading this book from cover to cover.

Rating:  Summary: Spend Your Money On Spinach Instead Review: I love Gary Null's radio program. It's so inspirational that I bought this book hoping for more of the same. Sadly, I found it one of the worst organized books I ever seen, badly edited, and full of pages and pages of superfluous "testimonials" (literally over fifty pages of insubstantial fan letters!) I'm sorry to write this because I am a fan of Gary's and appreciate what he does on the radio but I feel compelled to warn the prospective buyer away from this book.
Rating:  Summary: PHD? Scientist? Review: I rushed to purchase MR. Null's book after seeing him tonight of PBS. That was before I read all of the negative reviews posted here! I noticed one reviewer had suggested that a visit to quackwatch.com might be helpful. I went there and was not pleased with the information I discovered. I suggest you do the same before purchasing this book! I decided to purchase Dr. Timothy Smith's book instead (a reviewer had recommended it). I appreciate the fact that readers are allowed to post their reviews and thanks to those reviewers who stopped me from making a bad purchase. Perhaps PBS should take some of the money it receives from the Pledge Drive and use it to investigate it's guest.
Rating:  Summary: Be fair! Review: These are my opinions from my own observations. Watch Gary Null on PBS, especially his "Art of Health" show, he gives away tons of useful, free information. Judging this book based off of some reader's review is no better than judging the book buy it's cover. It's a mistake to ingore his message just because he can come off as an activist against drug companies but he does has some points. In america we spend billions of dollars on health care each year and yet are we healty? NO. Every 30 seconds someone dies of a heart attack alone. Now let's say you're a medical professional in that trillion dollar buisness.. Of course you're not going to speak out or leave your lucrative job to preach the truth (unless you're passionate about getting the truth out there, even though you know thousands of people will disagree with *some* of the things you say) But most doctors aren't taught nutrition, except maybe how to deal with diabeties or high blood pressure once you already have it! And of course you should be objective and extract what's useful and discard the rest from anyone's message. So be fair, hear the man out before you decide if he's the real deal or not, but considering 95% of his message is simply about eating mostly raw foods and "right thinking" (which any yogi is taught), I think you'll see his message is positive.
