Beating Ankylosing Spondylitis Naturally

May take a few reads but a very in depth book. Great for anyone not wanting to depend on medicine.

Et donc je n'ai rien appris que je ne sache déjà sur la maladie dans cet ouvrage hormis le fait que ce médecin n'est manifestement pas spécialiste de la maladie car il contient des inexactitudes, souvent des approximations et surtout il est loin d'offrir une solution sérieuse. En gros il conseille des exercices d'assouplissements quotidiens, granted c'est la base... Là cette partie est ok.Par contre il conseille plein de solutions alternatives pour la douleur, certaines recevables mais comment peut-on conseiller des compléments alimentaires à tout va à une personne dont le système immunitaire est un tueur. Je peux parler d'expérience, je l'ai fait par le passé, ça m'a valu la pire crise de spondy de toute ma vie, deux mois et demi d'hosto et un an d'arrêt. La base c'est de réduire le système immunitaire, c'est d'ailleurs le principe d'action des médicaments actuellement les plus efficaces pour soulager à défaut de guérir.Bref, rien de nouveau ni de bon, à oublier...

Something I learned as soon as I made a determination to find out more about ankylosing spondiltis (because I have it) is there are precious few books on the subject. Type the words into Amazon and you’ll find only one book with more than five reviews. (This is only slightly better than elephantiasis…) In other words, not only are there precious few texts on the subject, nobody’s reading them.That one books is Beating Ankylosing Spondilitis Naturally by Dr. Scott A. Johnson, a best-selling author and board certified Alternative Medical Practitioner (AMP). I’ve now read the book and I will definitely assert if you’re suffering from any kind of inflammatory or auto-immune problems, you need to read this book.What makes the book so good? First, it’s authoritative: the man isn’t simply blabbering about other people’s problems–he actually has AS himself and tells you his story. So while he’s a medical doctor–with all the facts to back up what he’s saying–he’s also writing from experience. So the solutions he offers not only make medical sense from a scientific perspective, he’s personally tested them.The book is also comprehensive. Just running down the table of contents (here with a bit of rephrasing) you can see you’re getting the whole story:-A medical definition of what AS actually is-A review of standard treatment options-Effects of food on AS symptoms-Effects of physical activity on AS sufferers–the good, the bad and the ugly-Natural remedies for the disease-Suggested lifestyle considerationsIt’s a slim book–just over a hundred pages, not including endnotes–but it’s dense with helpful information. In fact, the book was really the final incentive I needed to make a complete and total change in my diet and perspective. I’m going to be 50 years old in a few weeks and in the past couple months I’ve had at least two doctors tell me I could face serious debility in the next 10-15 years if something doesn’t change. So….Dr. Johnson says his symptoms have been in remission for a decade. VE Irons “cured” his AS by fasting and lived to 98 (he died of complications resulting from a car accident, poor fellow). In other words-It can be done.

Had lots of information, lots of things that I haven't read I the internet (and I've done extensive research on the topic). I thought it was worth the money.

It is quite a thin book and not well edited. It repeats a lot of information. Yes, the information is useful but nothing ground breaking.It was neither well written for the general public or up to the standard of a medical book.
