Summary: Literally Saved My Life
Review: At a loss to figure out why I was so ill, my doctor recommended I use the information in this book to determine if food allergies might be the source of my health problems (daily migraine, violent coughing fits lasting 8+ hours, chronic fatique, severe depression, sinus problems, memory loss, confusion, disorientation... and the list went on and on...and on). The migraine had begun some 30 years earlier, and things had progressed from there with the list of symtpms growing yearly. I had not a clue as to their source, even though I searched constantly for answers. I had even done the routines with allergists, but got no answers. I read the book; it made perfect sense. A high pulse rate indicates the body is in reaction to exposure to some "allergen." On day three or four of my test, I developed a very high pulse in the morning, but I had not eaten a single thing. However, I HAD cleaned the bathrooms, using my usual cleaning products which contained chemicals and chemical fragrance. It didn't take long to make the connection!! We had stumbled upon a shortcut to diagnosing my intolerance to chemicals. After 30+ years, I had an answer! This book, written in the 50's, focuses on food allergies, so did not have much to say about how chemicals affect living things, since chemicals were just becoming prevalent in our world beginning after WWII. However, the pulse test told the tale, and I was diagnosed with Multiple Chemical Sensitivity. That was 4 years ago, and my life has changed dramatically, needless to say. Having this book probably saved me years of tests and evaluation -- except that I would not have lasted long enough to go that route. Most doctors will scoff at what Dr. Coca has written here, but you don't need a doctor to simply check your pulse and discover what might be the source of your symptoms.
