Dr. James Balch's first book established him as one of the most trusted authorities in the fields of alternative & homeopathic medicine. Now, in a groundbreaking new volume that may well revolutionize the way Americans think about their health, his potentially life-saving wisdom is more accessible than ever before. Throughout his career in medicine, Dr. Balch has been committed to helping patients take charge of their own well-being. But how can people remain in control of their health if their doctors are unable (or unwilling) to teach them the basic principles of healthy living? Dr. Balch has found that many health-care providers are woefully uninformed about preventative health measures & effective natural remedies, relying instead solely on conventional courses of medication & surgery: In Ten Natural Remedies That Can Save Your Life, Dr. Balch empowers readers to take action to protect their own health.
He provides them with a better understanding of the healthy body & suggests natural remedies for medical problems, including: *Barley Grass, the richest source of nutrients on Earth, has been shown in laboratory studies to prevent & successfully treat both breast & prostate cancer. *The Three Gs--garlic, ginseng, & ginkgo- are natural substances with well-known beneficial qualities. However, they must be used properly to achieve the best results-Dr. Balch shows readers how. * Chelation Therapy, a natural process in which a combination of certain nutrients is used to cleanse the body of dangerous substances, including lead, cadmium, arsenic, & other heavy metals. * Natural Hormone Maintenance: Hormone replacement therapy for women undergoing menopause has many benefits but also brings increased risks of cancer. Dr. Balch explains several safe, natural alternatives that many women have found equally effective.
Using plainspoken common sense & anecdotal examples featuring his own patients, Dr. Balch demystifies the language of health, providing important & readily available remedies that can literally save lives.
