THE VITAMIN CURE: Clinically Proven Remedies to Prevent and Treat 75 Chronic Diseases and Conditions
Revised & Updated 2nd Edition
Based on over 40 years of research and hundreds of leading studies, The VITAMIN CURE 2ND EDITION is a comprehensive guide to improving overall health with vitamin and essential element therapies.
Vitamin means “being vital for life.” And vitamins are essential nutrients that the body
does not make; therefore, they must be obtained from foods. The aim of this book is to
provide you with easily accessible, evidence-based knowledge about vitamins and essential elements for the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases.
Modern medicine has done much in the field of acute conditions such as trauma, infections, burn, and bone fractures, but it has limited success in treating chronic diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes, COVID-19, arthritis, Alzheimer’s, depression, cancer, hypertension, and Parkinson’s, among others. At present, the root causes of most chronic diseases are still unknown, and the drugs developed by pharmaceutical companies to treat chronic diseases actually treat only the symptoms rather than causes.
According to Dr. Monte Lai, a nutrient deficient diet and unhealthy lifestyle are by far the two most important environmental factors associated with the causes of a host of chronic diseases. THE VITAMIN CURE 2ND EDITION provides a comprehensive overview of how vitamin and essential element therapies are the key to treating and preventing many of the chronic conditions.
IN THE VITAMIN CURE 2ND EDITION, YOU WILL DISCOVER:
• Comprehensive information on 27 vitamins and essential elements.
• How to treat major killers and nagging chronic health issues safely and effectively with vitamins, minerals, omega-3s, and nutrients.
• Five science-based secrets for staying healthy.
• Why sufferers of autoimmune diseases should not eat meat.
• The vital importance of physical activity to brain health.
• Why antioxidants are so crucial for successful aging.
• Therapies to treat and prevent Alzheimer’s, heart disease, cancer, hypertension, diabetes, and more!
While the internet is chock full of health related information about vitamins and essential elements, it is difficult to sort through all available information to build a reliable knowledge base to improve health. The aim of this book is to provide readers with easily accessible evidence-based knowledge about vitamins and essential elements for prevention and treatment of chronic diseases. THE VITAMIN CURE 2ND EDITION relies on a statistical method known as meta-analysis (combining data from multiple studies) that is currently the most reliable method for assessing the efficacy of vitamins or essential elements in preventing or treating chronic diseases.
THE VITAMIN CURE 2ND EDITION brings clinically proven remedies to light for any reader looking to improve overall health and prevent debilitating disease. This book contains five parts
• Part one contains a brief history of the discovery of each of the thirteen essential vitamins, namely, vitamin A, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin B3, vitamin B5, vitamin B6, vitamin B7, vitamin B9, vitamin B12, vitamin C, vitamin D, vitamin E, and vitamin K. It also presents meta-analytic evidence of the efficacy of each vitamin in prevention and treatment of diseases, its recommended daily allowance and best food sources.
• Part two covers essential elements, including the five essential elements, i.e., calcium, potassium, sodium, magnesium and phosphorous, and the eight essential trace elements, i.e., iron, zinc, manganese, copper, molybdenum, iodine, chromium and selenium. It also presents meta-analytic evidence of the efficacy of each essential element in prevention and treatment of diseases, its recommended daily allowance and best food sources.
• Part three explains important secrets for staying healthy. These include explanations of how sugar makes you fat, why patients with autoimmune diseases should not eat meat, and how exercise benefits the brain.
• Part four provides meta-analysis evidence of which vitamins and essential elements should be taken to prevent and/or treat seventy-five chronic diseases and conditions. These seventy-five chronic diseases and conditions include lung cancer, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, prostate cancer, endometrial cancer, blood cancer, bladder cancer, glioma, diabetes, stroke, heart disease, cataracts, hypertension, Alzheimer’s disease, osteoporosis, arthritis, hepatitis C, fatty liver disease, Parkinson’s disease, sleep apnea, and others.
