An Excellent Resource

I first came across this book several years ago while searching for ways to combat the spinal and muscular deterioration I was experiencing from radiation therapy for childhood cancer in 1954. In this substantial book, Steven Schechter has provided excellent information, backed by extensive research. Fighting Radiation and Chemical Pollutants has become a trusted resource guide for me. Unlike many books on nutritional answers to physical needs, this book offers solid documentation of medical research (almost 2 dozen pages of bibliographical notes) for the foods, nutrients, herbs, and activities it recommends. It also teaches -- in a readable balance of detail and simplicity -- how radiation and chemicals affect the human body, and how to utilize recommendations. As a naturopathic doctor, Schechter offers us refreshing alternatives to drug therapies and lives of pain. Just using a portion of the nutrients (high-quality only) listed in this book - in combination with other traditional and non-traditional therapies such chiropractic, therapeutic massage, manual physical therapy and water exercise -- has made a big difference in my quality of life and kept me from the need for drugs and surgeries.Whether the radiation or chemical exposure is environmental, industrial or medical, this book offers effective weapons for those fighting after-effects, and practical help for those looking for front-line protection against future exposure.
