ARTHRITIS AND COMMON SENSE (Fireside Book)

Rating:
Summary: Old and In the Way!
Review: I'm not sure the text has been updated since the original copyright in 1954. Certainly the current nutritional advice is at odds with much of what this simplistic book recommends. And it doesn't even mention exercise! Common sense tells me to take advantage of more recent scientific studies of arthritis.

Summary: Real help for arthritis
Review: When I was in my mid-20's, I was diagnosed with gout. Although I received medication, there wasn't much improvement. Fortunately, my aunt loaned me her copy of this book. Within days, the gout was gone, simply due to following some of the basics in the book. However, what I didn't know was why she believed in this book so strongly. Years before my gout, my aunt had suffered terribly from arthritis. She was so crippled with it that she couldn't even bathe herself. Despite extensive medication, all the doctors could do was help alleviate her pain, but were unable to cure the arthritis, itself. Out of desperation, she bought this book. To everyone's amazement, not only was she able to start taking care of herself again, she started going on walks. Up until the time she died in her 80's, she used to walk for over a mile a day. Please, do yourself a favor if you suffer from arthritis and buy this book.

Summary: Arthritis and Common Sense
Review: When my grandfather wrote this book, my mother was just two years old. I know a lot has changed in the world of medicine and scientific discovery has improved all of our lives, but one constant remains, nothing is better for preventing a problem or solving one than good common sense. My grandfather was well ahead of his time, his theories teach people that a simple solution is often times the best solution. Now almost 50 years later, evidence and testimonials have proven him to be right, and because it is in all of our best interests to protect our joints and our bodies, take this book home and read through it.
