Don't get taken into this classic dupe. You'll be asked to spend even more money getting the answers you're looking for. My advice -- Don't bother"

I have to say this book title certainly 'peaked' my interest. As one of the much revile 'they' who don't want 'you' to know about how we have cured cancer and other dreaded diseases, I wondered perhaps I had just missed a meeting that was required for me to begin a career in biomedical research on how to oppress the masses with disinformation.

Don't get me wrong, I am all for learning about real alternative therapies. I believe herbal remedies, meditation and non-traditional means are often over looked and it may be caused by the fact there is no drug company profit for this. Having heard about this book from a number of colleagues and patients, I felt obligated to read it to make an informed judgment on suggestions for alternative therapies.

This became a truly painful endeavor for me as I searched for information on how to treat diseases. Even if someone was looking to choose a therapy based on the shoddy pseudo-science in this book, I am stumped on how they would do it. Often there are no references to look up the source material, no information on dosing, complications and monitoring the use of treatments like DMSO and hydrogen peroxide. I sincerely hope that no one out there is going to try these or many of the other suggestions in this book. I grow brain cells in my research lab and can tell you that a great way to kill them is to apply either of these two agents."

What "Kevin Trudeau" Doesn't Want You to Know, October 30, 2005
Reviewer: R. Allen -(REAL NAME)

I actually thought this book would include tons of great information about alternative health therapies. It does contain tons of information about how bad the FDA is and then says the FDA won't let him put the therapy information in the book -- so you have to PAY to get access to the information on his website. However, once you get to the website, there's not much there either. I guess "it's all about the money" for Mr. Trudeau -- get you paying every which way. Very disappointing.

Then I did some research and found out that Kevin has been in prison (not just for making claims about Coral Calcium) but for credit card fraud, impersonating a doctor, and other charges.

Although there is some good information in the book, and it does point out that there are many ways we can become more healthy, it's just too much about the "big bad FDA" and too little about the alternative therapies he claims to be writing about.

Cancer ‘Cures’ Are Empty Promises
in Kevin Trudeau’s ‘Natural Cures’ Book
New York State Consumer Protection Board
News Release, August 5, 2005

The New York State Consumer Protection Board (“CPB”) is warning consumers that a fast-selling book by Kevin Trudeau does not contain the “natural cures” for cancer and other diseases that Trudeau is promising in a nationwide television ad campaign.

The CPB says Trudeau is not only misrepresenting the contents of his self-published book, he is also using false endorsements to encourage consumers to buy “Natural Cures They Don’t Want You to Know About.”

“This book is exploiting and misleading people who are searching for cures to serious illnesses,” said Teresa A. Santiago, Chairperson Teresa A. Santiago. “What they discover is page after page after page of pure speculation -- not the cures for cancer and other diseases that are promised.”

“From cover to cover, this book is a fraud. The front cover makes false promises about ‘natural cures’ that are in the book, while the back cover includes false endorsements, including one from a doctor who died three years before the book was even written,” Chairperson Santiago said....
