Very educational and helpful
The truth at last... November 10, 2006 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
If you only read the first 40 pages of this book, you will get the point.
The solution to our "health crisis" is so simple that we are missing it completely. It is NOT better drugs, more testing, more doctors, higher insurance premiums, etc.
The solution is taking personal responsibility for eating low on the food chain, and looking for business opportunities which enhance health rather than degrade it.
We've been living that lifestyle since 1972, and it works. We are in our mid-50's and healthy, trim, fit, and we love every day because we know that we may reach out to touch the lives and health of people in the spirit and practice of prevention and wellness.
Great job, Paul Pilzer, in telling the truth about the economics of sick care vs. Health Care!
Caveat Emptor August 23, 2006 13 out of 22 found this review helpful
I came across this book after its mention by someone trying to get me into the Amway/Quixtar scheme. Pilzer's books try to financially educate the average person, make him aware that his lifestyle is being leveraged by large corporations for their benefit. Inasmuch, his effort is appreciated.
But their "take action" message is often exploited by wheeler-dealers (like my Quixtar distributor), turning them into motivational tools. It's misguiding in that way.
Who wrote these reviews anyway? TONY RUSH: Pilzer never won the Nobel Prize, though he is brilliant. (Tony Rush and others appear repeatedly among Pilzer's book reviewers- is this coincidence?)
All in all, here's my advice. (a)if you're trying to get financially educated, there are much better authors out there. Try Lester Thurow, for a start. Try William Bernstein. (b)if you've been encouraged to buy this book by a Quixtar or other such distributor, beware. Run and hide.
Wellness - Sellness March 15, 2006 8 out of 9 found this review helpful
I am in the planning process of opening a wellness center in a resort area with a physician. I had no idea how BIG this business was. I would say that this book is a primer for further exploration into this field. It has given me a better understanding of how important wellness and anti-aging is over the so-called health care industry. It has given me the incentive to lose about 20 pounds in order to practice what I may be preaching in the near future. Thanks for opening my eyes even more.
