"Be careful about reading health books. You may die of a misprint. —MARK TWAIN (1835-1910) APPENDIX ONE Your Brilliant Health Quotient: A Questionnaire The following questions will give you an idea of your Brilliant Health Quotient. It's both descriptive and prescriptive, giving you a view of where you are now and providing you with a sense of what you can do specifically to improve your Brilliant Health. This scale is not designed to be an absolute instrument. Your score is unrelated to other people's. It's simply meant to be your personal point of reference." - Rick Foster, Greg Hicks, M.D., Jen Seda, Choosing Brilliant Health: 9 Choices That Redefine What It Takes to Create Lifelong Vitality and Well-Being (Get the book.)

"She searched some alternative health books and started to eat low glycemic foods and leaner meats. She started to really take her time chewing. You were surprised that your grandmother was so hip; she was even taking a broad spectrum digestive enzyme with each meal and a high potency multi vitamin with antioxidants for her cataracts. Every day she took 3,000 mgs of vitamin C and 800 mgs of a 1:1 ratio ol calcium to magnesium for her hypertension. She also took four pellets twice a day of the homeopathic remedy Kali carbonicum 30CH.. You were shocked that after one month she did very well!" - Heather Caruso, Your Drug-Free Guide to Digestive Health (Get the book.)

"I've been working hard on cutting out the sugar, 'cause that's one thing all the health books and articles agree on." "For sure. I hope you're also getting rid of processed foods, and anything with artificial flavor, color, or preservatives." "LaDonna's been on me about that.

During your first waking moments each morning, listen to a song that inspires you and that will keep you charged throughout the day." - David Wolfe, The Sunfood Diet Success System (Get the book.)

"I tried eating more dates—the health books said they were good?but they gave me tons of gas. I would walk around with a bloated stomach and terrible indigestion, feeling like I was pregnant, falsely secure that since I was no longer eating white, processed sugars, I was getting cleaned out. The trouble was that the supposedly healthy "all natural" bottled fruit juices that were supposed to calm my sugar cravings were part of the problem. When I decided to eliminate "bad" food from my diet, I became aware of how much of my daily intake came from fast-food joints." - Timothy Brantley, The Cure: Heal Your Body, Save Your Life (Get the book.)

"Preventive Medical Center of Marin and author of several popular health books said, "Through my 25 years in medical practice and health care...I have come to believe that the cleansing and detoxification process is the missing link in Western nutrition and one of the keys to real healing. I have seen hundreds of patients over the years transform regular or persistent illness into health and greatly improved vitality." - Gregory, A. Gore, Defeat Cancer (Get the book.)

"From nutrition books I went to general health books, then to herbology books, and then to more formal studies and a Doctor of Naturopathy diploma. Of course, my larger goal was to correct my urinary urgency and erectile dysfunction, but I wound up getting an education about natural health. Meanwhile, the Internet came of age, making it easier to research medical information. I studied, improved my diet, ingested some specific vitamins, minerals, and herbs, and little by little I felt my prostate problems easing." - James Occhiogrosso, N. D., Your Prostate, Your Libido, Your Life (Get the book.)

"This book is available from Agora health books of Baltimore, Md. There is no guaranteed cure for cancer. However, numerous natural treatments have shown very promising results in some people. Considering the alternatives, they are certainly worth exploring if you, a family member or friends have cancer. The Truth About Sunlight John Ott has done monumental work in the field of photobiology.

Howenstine, A Physician's Guide to Natural Health Products That Work (Get the book.)

"I also drank 100 percent concentrated juice in the mornings, since the advertising and the health books told me that it was perfectly fine. As I dug into extra helpings of dried fruits, date sugar, bananas, and raisins to further satisfy my sugar cravings, I thought I was Nature Boy. Little did I know I was still consuming enough sugar, although in a different form, to aggravate my symptoms." - Timothy Brantley, The Cure: Heal Your Body, Save Your Life (Get the book.)

"By Bill Gottlieb Editor-in-Chief Prevention Magazine health books Dear Reader: A couple of years ago, the editors at Prevention Magazine health books met with 20 of you in a "focus group"—an event arranged by companies to find out what their customers like and dislike about their products and what their customers want for the future. You wanted choices. You didn't want to be limited to just one kind of doctor—a medical doctor. You wanted to be able to sample from the new field of "alternative medicine," with its broad range of practitioners." - Bill Gottlieb, New Choices in Natural Healing: Over 1,800 of the Best Self-Help Remedies from the World of Alternative Medicine (Get the book.)

"If you are an individual who has been reading various health books trying to solve a variety of problems, you will find Mastering Leptin quite refreshing. Truly understanding this book takes some focus and energy. Our book is far more in depth than the typical simplistic diet book, which introduces basic ideas. Mastering Leptin links diet directly to disease and actually explains it in English. If this is your first health book, many of the terms will be new. The chapters are written in a sequence that builds on your understanding." - Byron J. Richards, CCN, Mastering Leptin: The Leptin Diet, Solving Obesity and Preventing Disease, Second Edition (Get the book.)

"But as I'm sure you've already discovered, there is no shortage of how-to health books or programs, frequently offering odd, counterintuitive, or contradictory advice. How do you make sense of everything you hear? Today, in the early years of the twenty-first century, medical research is dramatically shifting its focus. Instead of looking only at the physical or biochemical factors that lead to health problems, researchers are gaining a better understanding of the far-reaching roles genes play in determining the risk of disease." - Jack Challem, Feed Your Genes Right: Eat to Turn Off Disease-Causing Genes and Slow Down Aging (Get the book.) "While these health recommendations might sound familiar, the rationale behind them and the specific suggestions in Feed Your Genes Right differ from those in other health books. Ancient Genes, Modern Diet Many modern health problems result from what amounts to a collision between our ancient genetics and modern highly processed foods. These foods, which include the vast majority of packaged products sold in supermarkets as well as fast foods, have undergone substantial modification from their original form, and they bear little nutritional resemblance to what people ate in the past." - Jack Challem, Feed Your Genes Right: Eat to Turn Off Disease-Causing Genes and Slow Down Aging (Get the book.)

"Cancer Cured—Film at 11:00" The Media's Role in Disseminating Medical Advances Be careful about reading health books; you may die of a misprint. —Mark Twain1 No disease has been "cured" as repeatedly as cancer has.—Rick Weiss, Washington Post2 on almost a daily basis, I (Rick) have patients who bring me newspaper clippings on medical breakthroughs—breakthroughs that they want to try. Sometimes the clippings are from the National Enquirer, sometimes from the Seattle Times, and sometimes from the Internet.

"The Internet had not been invented yet, and there weren't any alternative health books of which I was aware. I didn't really think to look for any clues or cures because I thought my problems weren't physiological. (Now I wonder how I missed the logic that physiological symptoms signal physiological problems,) Instead, I trudged along feeling a little better every week. After almost a year, I finally felt as if I had crawled out of the "pit" and that the worst was behind me. A few months later, I even considered myself healthy again." - Pat Sullivan, Wellness Piece by Piece: How a Successful Entrepreneur Discovered the Pieces to His Chronic Health Puzzle (Get the book.)

"Meanwhile, there have been many altemative health books that attempt to freat various diseases by adjusting the body pH via the diet. Potential hydrogens, or pH, refers to the acid or alkaline nature of a chemical. If you mix a mild acid, like vinegar, with a mild alkaline substance, like baking soda, then the resulting reaction produces a salt-they neufralize one another by exchanging hydrogens. Just about everything that goes in your mouth can alter pH, including oxygen." - Patrick Quillin, Beating Cancer with Nutrition (Get the book.)
