I used info gained in this book to help me with my fibromyalgia pain. It has really worked, to my surprise. I am thankful to the author.

I know very well what inflammation is and how it adversely affects one's life. I've suffered with idiopathic inflammation for almost two years now. I've been tested for every disease, rheumatoid arthiritis, Lyme, erlichiosis, etc. The doctors cannot find the cause. I'm on Zyrtec 365 days a year to eliminate allergies. But even this does not lessen my joint inflammation at the young age of 43, thin, active and non-smoking.
I anxiously purchased this book to see what potential cures the author had to offer sufferers. None. Don't smoke, don't overeat, eliminition diets, exercise... all the usual stuff found in every health pamphlet. Nothing new here at all. I learned nothing my doctors hadn't already told me or I'd read online. It's a well-written book on an important subject. It just doesn't have answers as the title implies.

There is nothing new in this book and from an asthmatic point of view- it misses the most important aspect of reversing inflammation. There is very little mention about controlling hyperventilation or overbreathing. The very first step would be to teach asthmatics the importance of nasal breathing so that the airways dont constrict in the very first place. One method of which there are several excellent self books are is called the Buteyko method. Do a search on Amazon for Buteyko.
I can guarantee that this area will provide far reaching improvement to quality of life than this book. Other sites which provide a great account of are http://www.buteykointernational.com/ or http://www.buteyko.ie or http://www.asthmacare.ie/

This book, along with a few others, have allowed me to virtually eliminate any prior risks from osteoarthritis,asthma,age associated weight gain and depression. I also believe it will reduce any environmental risks of cancer...in my opinion.
