Book Review: TOX-SICK: From Toxic to not Sick by Suzanne Somers
Book Review: TOX-SICK: From Toxic to not Sick by Suzanne Somers
First off I would like to say that this book is scholarly. It’s 367 pages long and 29 pages of that are lists of medical journal articles for further study. Also several interviews with medical doctors are included. I would also call this book thorough and exhaustive.
Some (not all) of the topics talked about are gluten intolerance, mold, phthalates, probiotics, enemas, leaky gut, inflammation, supplements, EMFs, home care products, and coconut oil. There are complete chapters on certain body systems such as the gut, the brain, the heart and the thyroid.
There are plenty of stories (some like case studies) for encouragement and motivation. Her own personal stories were relevant and interesting.
Some notable quotes are:
If you only take away one thing from this book, take this. This simple message is the most important change you can make: No sugar, no carbs (until you are healed.) [page 78, bolded in the original]
Coffee enemas are the single most important technique that you can do. [page 108]
There’s nobody walking around today who wouldn’t do better with a probiotic. [page 108]
After telling us why we need to detox, interviewing various doctors to back it all up, going through various body systems then she rounds it all out with a basic detox regimen which includes a very detailed list and information on different supplements. Very comprehensive and no real “fluff” either!
If you are sick and the doctors have not been able to help and you want to know what you can do from a natural perspective (as opposed to a spiritual perspective, like getting prayer or healing ministry) then this book is for you!!
