Product Description
Kevin Trudeau blows the lid off a nest of deception and double standards concerning general and individual health in this new book, Natural Cures "They" Don't Want You To Know About. Kevin has risked government prosecution to bring you the full story of an intricate conspiracy. From the retail supermarket outlets of huge, publicly traded corporations comes processed, manipulated, engineered "food products" -- produced by other wings of the same corporation. These artificial, toxic treats are then sold with the blessings of the Federal Trade Commission and Food and Drug Administration -- government organizations charged with safeguarding the public good -- laying the foundations for future disease and chronic ill-health for the consumer, and a guaranteed source of revenue for the medical and pharmaceutical sectors. Kevin reveals the shocking truth of how drugs - which are being advertised directly to the consumer, pushing their use to an all-time high - are actually the cause of illness and disease climbing to near epidemic levels. And, though it sounds dire, Kevin offers a light in the darkness and directs the reader to scores and scores of alternative therapies, medical practices, philosophies and -- most importantly -- potential cures that help your body regain its natural state of health and vibrancy. So follow Kevin on an amazing journey through the behind-the-scenes world of corporate sponsored "nutrition" and "health," and learn about Natural Cures "They" Don't Want You To Know About.

 Can't believe the negative reviews
I am halfway through the book as I write this. There is not really a single point of Kevin's that I disagree with thus far. Of course, I have always been into health so everything he says rings true with what I have learned over many years - and practice for myself .
The strength of this book is not so much new ideas, rather it's his astute assembling of healthful ideas from many sources into one. I don't condemn him for that - it still has his personal touch.
Yes, everyone is taking pot shots at him, and for those who don't understand real health this book may seem to promote easy solutions to complex problems. However, if one has a basic understanding of health, then implementing his ideas will not seem silly or difficult.
Yes, he raves and rants, but so would you when you have a message to deliver and most everyone doesn't believe you. And while he is raking in lots of money, isn't that what capitalism is all about? Build a better mousetrap?
Before you condemn this book, realize that everyone throughout history who went against the tide was ridiculed.... until the time they were proven correct. I would trust Kevin's ideas long before I would trust the FDA, which is not really working in the public's best interest.
As just one example - John Stossel, in a TV spot jumped all over Kevin for saying jumping on a rebounder could help alleviate depression and exercise the body in a unique way. Well, Stossel's the fool here - anyone who know about rebounding understands it's a unique way to exercise and it can do everything Kevin says it can, and much more! So multiply this one error on the part of those seeking to undermine him, and you get the picture.
As for Trudeau's troubled past, I don't know much personally and therefore won't join in until I know more.
Overall, he's compiled a lot of genuinely excellent information and presented it fairly and clearly, if perhaps just with a bit too much enthusiasm.
It must have taken a long time to write this book - with no guarantee of any rewards at the end of his work. The fact that it has succeeded beyond anyone's dreams does not make him guilty of anything.
Overall, I like this book a lot. If someone is interested in improving their health, there are many books that can lead the way. If you are prepared to read 400 plus pages, you could do a lot worse than this one.

The truth is out there somewhere.
I've found the truth. This book has put me on the path to being well. The book isn't just about particular natural cures - but also the fact that the media and pharmaceutical companies hide this knowledge and try to debunk them. I've been following the advice in it and people tell me I Iook fantastic. I feel great and full of energy. I haven't been sick for 18 months, not even a single headache. The only deterrant is that readers may not be aware of is, becasue of the FDA trying to shut down Mr Trudeau, that he is limmited in the way he can express himself. This means it may take a bit of detective work (especially if you live outside the US). Pretty simple though, google keywords from the book (like life force plan, or gallbladder flush) and you'll find the right info. However for those in the US you have a comprehensive website available to you with all the info you need.
I've spent over $10000 dollars trying to cure my cystic acne. Nobody had the answers. His book said, do a candida cleanse, liver & gallbadder cleanse, Dr caldwells stress techniques. Hey presto acne gone! I've also been implementing the other suggestions too. As it turns out my test results came back positive for heavy metal poisoning, and parasites too. I've gotton rid of them all via natural means without a single side affect. I would strongly recommmend getting the book "MORE natural cures they don't want you to know about." as well. In it he has actually put the appropriate website addresses to go to and the names of some products. I refer back to this book often and hate to be without it. If you really want the truth and not the lie you've been told by the greedy pharmaceutical comapnies and the media then you will find it here.

 Less Rant and More Information, Please
Kevin spends most of the book ranting about the influence of food and drug manufacturers over the government. Well, tell us something that we do not know already. I appreciate Kevin Trudeau's trials and tribulations to get this information and deal with the bureacracies. But, let's move ahead. I felt ripped off when I mostly just read about "they" and a some references on getting a kidney, liver, etc. cleanse and practice tai chi. Well, thanks, but it would help to toss in some formulas and actual demonstrations instead of a bunch of websites. I am keeping the book for now, just for some websites. Otherwise, it is mostly one man's rant against the system. I received far more health information and entertainment from Dr. Duke's Essential Herbs.

 Follow the Money, Naturally
Yes, Mr. Trudeau is a promoter and a bit over the top. But he's also an agent of change and audacious enough to speak out when the Emperor has not clothes. We can all identify with his recurring outburst in the face of endless obtuseness of his adversaries: Mad as Hell and Not Going to Take It Anymore. Remember, if we all were completely reasonable and content people, nothing would ever change.
The author presents a scattergun assault on the establishment truths about health, diet, and medicine, attempting to convey his versions of the truth that he believes are often suppressed - by government agencies, drug companies, and the medical establishment, and even the US Congress. His observations are most interesting for those into conspiracy theories! Even for those who are not, however, the book raises questions about why natural cures for common diseases meet with not just distain but hostility from the "experts". The author suggests that we, like good investigators, follow the money.
The place where the book is disappointing is the way it does not live up to its promise of telling the reader how to prevent and cure diseases through natural means. To often the information turns out not to be in the book but in another publication or on a website. For a book this size, he could have found space for the answers, perhaps in place of recurring repetitive ranting.
Mr. Trudeau's ideas and idiosyncrasies have become part of our household lexicon. We find him fun, challenging, and surprisingly insightful. The book is a good catalyst for thought the diet/health/medicine/drugs/ topics, particularly for those willing to take a radical new look at conventional wisdom and cures. Before we can no longer afford health care at all, why not step back and question what "they" tell you, or don't tell you.

 REDUNDANT, REDUNDANT, REDUNDANT
Did I say it was redundant?
Yes, there's some very useful information here and yes the major medical big money machine does suppress & discredit a lot of alternative methods for better health.
BUT, Trudeau is not the best messenger to deliver this insight.
He has got to be the most self centered repetitive wind-bag to ever write a book. This agonizingly long read could have been cut by 2/3 and would have more tolerable.
But no, Kevin refused to allow anyone to edit his stuff. He's PROUD (& that's part of the problem) that NO ONE touched his original manuscript.
>Plus there are some wacky claims here that are way over the top.
(the sun doesn't cause skin cancer, it's the sun blocker that does!)
Bottom line-
Kevin Trudeau would have a LOT more credibility if he'd:
1. Back off a little on all the conspiracy stuff
2. Better research some of his more outrageous claims
3. Hire a trustworthy editor to make his material more professionally presentable
4. Stop being so full of himself.
