Summary: BEST OVERALL PERSONAL HEALTH BOOK
Review: Get Healthy Now is the best book that Gary Null has written that covers all aspects of health. It explains how to correct almost any problem you may develop but most of all it show you how to get into a healthier preventative mode so you can really take care of yourself. The range of items in this thousand page book covers is amazing - from how to treat a blister on your foot that you may develop from your marathon training program - to healthy recipes - to what the current approaches for serious life threatening illnesses are. Im using this book as my personal health bible for my family and would highly recommend to any one interested in improving their life.

Summary: A Former Follower
Review: Having seen Gary Null on the PBS show, I thought I would take a look at this book. I had previously been a long time radio listener of Gary Null, but as his behavior and health claims became more bizarre, I could no longer listen to him. That said, I thought his PBS presentation was interesting and I thought perhaps this book would be as well. Unfortunatly, although there are some good points in this book for people who don't know anything about healthy eating habits, this book is mostly opinion, rather than fact. Rather then waste money on this book, I would advise others to look at books written by authors such as Drs. Ornish and Weil. These authors, I believe, are men of integrity whose main goal is the spreading of the message rather than the aggrandizement of the messenger. Good Health.

Summary: Great book. But, where's arginine?
Review: Heading the Pantheon in health and nutrition are, unquestionably, Carlton Fredericks, Durk Pearson and Gary Null. I am a long-time devotee of Gary Null, and I've read his books and followed his advice much to my personal advantage. This new book continues to present the best "alternatives" for health today. But, in my opinion, Gary Null inexplicably overlooked arginine, an amino acid now even recommended by The American Heart Association and the Mayo Clinic for persons with cardiovascular disease. Fortunately, the new book, The Arginine Solution (Warner), by two New York alternative health experts takes up the slack.

Summary: Praise from a fellow health author...
Review: Here Gary Null gets very specific in his recommendations on healthy living. It is a great family reference, and well written to read cover to cover. If you want to know more about how these things affect your brain, and how to improve your brain function, "The care and feeding of your brain" (Giuffre, DiGeronimo, Career Press 1999) is a great companion book! Bravo Dr. Null!....Kenneth Giuffre' MD

Summary: Where did he come up with this stuff?
Review: I anxiously awaited this book's arrival, hoping to find an excellent source of nutritional information and life-style enhancements. Being a dentist, I homed in on the chapter on dental care, which was laced with inaccuracies and mis-information! Yes, fluoride is used as rat poison, we've known that for a hundred years. But, to be toxic to humans at the levels used to fluoridate municipal water supplies, you'd have to drink a bathtub-full daily for a month to be dangerous. How long do we have to beat this fluoride horse? Most of the rest of the chapter is also just as inaccurate. My point is this. As a dentist, I know my area of expertise. If I cannot trust the information given on dental care because I know it's wrong, how can I rely on the other nine hundred plus pages of guidance on areas I have less knowledge about? My advice? Save your money.

Summary: Get Healthy Now
Review: I could not be more enthusiastic about this book "Get Healthy Now". This book has been an inspiration in changing my life. I have whole heartly embraced the information in the section titled "Taking Charge of Your Health"...The reasons for eating organic foods and the recipes that have been presented have started me on a whole new world that I just love. I have not been a strong advocate of an exercise regime because I never understood the importance of it, but I have now been doing the basic 28 day exercise plan, which is so clearly laid out. I feel so much better. I have more stamina, I now sleep well, and my friends have noticed the changes in me. They noticed that I seem more fit and have an air of contentment and well being. This book is packed with so much useful information that it will be my companion for a long time. It covers so many different possible ailments and how to correct them that I feel I have my own personal healer as Gary Null. I know he has written other books that have been excellent but this book is a perfect compilation with the most valuable pratical information. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is sincerely interested in improving their mental, physical and emotional health. Thanks for developing such a book and the important contribution you have made to society.

Summary: This is a poorly-written and vague tome.
Review: I decided to buy this book after seeing Gary Null speak on a fundraiser and also because his alternative medicine practices saved my friend's life after she was diagnosed with stage 4 endometrial cancer. However, I was very disappointed by the book's tone, which infantilizes the reader with qualifyers in alomst every statement, and offers no real specific information in an easy-to-access manner. The book is unwieldly and it's weight is not justified by the content. Null and his editor seem to have just reinforced his tv rhetoric in print. The book reads like a supermarket tabloid about health and alternative medicine. The segment on care of toenails is laughable. You get more info about toe hygiene from a woman's magazine. Too much vague info. I'm springing for the shipping and sending it back.

Summary: You've got to live it to believe it
Review: I don't have a clue whether Mr. Null is a quack or one of the most knowledgable people on the planet. The only way you'll truly believe one way or the other is to experience the changes described in the book. If you want to stay the same, then you will stay the same. If you want to change then you must change - it's really simple.
