Ratings and reviews

I THINK I might already own this book! Has he written any other books about immunity? I am NOW reassessing my apparently lax approach to the Paleo Diet I've been adhering to since 2015! MORE GREEN VEGGIES, note to self!!! I CAN say that due to doing a LOT of what he's advising IS the reason that I have not had a cold or flu since right before I got SERIOUS about Paleo in 2015! On several occasions during this Pandemic (I THINK we can call it OVER now, right?), I've felt minor threats of some sort of bug and immediately increased consumption of frozen Acai puree and avoided sugar by avoiding my favorite nondairy ice creams, my usual source (besides dark chocolate) of sugar.....neither me nor my 88 year old Mom that lives with me has gotten COVID or anything else remotely like it!!! Whereas one of my best friends suffered COVID TWICE, though she did EVERYTHING conventional MEDICINE had her to do, ALL the "vaccinating" (actually there is NO vaccine for COVID, only EXPERIMENTAL Meds that often have DISASTROUS effects, such as 17 year old ATHLETES DYING OF HEART ATTACKS......huge cover-ups.....), boosters, all of it....BAD MEDICINE!

Simply exceptional. I only wish that a new book based on these topics was updated (2019). Thank you so much for sharing

knowledge is king (longevity)
