Customer Reviews

A great, holistic book on knee for men or woman

I originally bought this for my girl friend. It was the second book from George Kessler I have bought. What I found was that where he shows where woman's knees are different than Men's knees, you learn about knees for men as well. He gets excellent reviews from such organizations as top hospital centers of joint diseases. I would recommend it to everyone. Better to understand the knee and prevent problems than recover. I'm a runner, so I was especially interested in it from that aspect, my girl friend is a serious hiker in her 50s, and many of her friends can no longer hike because of knee pain. I bought her a bunch of used copies to give to her friends. Then, I bought a copy for a specialist doctor I am seeing who is very interested in getting involved in his holistic analysis and to keep on his shelf to recommend to his patients with knee problems. It's also an easy read, he explains highly technical material clearly. The author was voted the best professor at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, which he teaches part time. Also get the Bone Density Diet which should be required reading for parents, when children's bones are being developed.

No more knee pain has food for thought

This book was recommended to me by someone who followed the suggestions for 6 weeks and voila no more knee pain! This book has opened my eyes to a lot of causes behind my knee pain.
