Excellent..... BUT....
Easy to read, full of good information. Fits in well with the work of many others with a functional medicine / root cause view, including Dr Terry Wahls MD. My only real criticism is that the way the recommendations are presented is inconsistent. Weeks 1 and 2 are best, with narrative as well as supporting tables of consolidated recommendations. Weeks 3 and 4 are virtually non-existent in terms of recommended actions. No food recommendations. Only recommends golden seal for week 3 and probiotics for week 4. After a comprehensive plan for weeks 1 & 2, there is clearly a big piece missing here. BIG. Where was the editor? Weeks 5 and 6 and 7 and 8 start to make specific recommendations again for food and supplements. So you do, at least, have an idea of what to do to support the liver and kidneys. But the consolidation of recommendations in a table or tables, like in weeks 1 & 2, is still missing. Why? This is common sense. Week 9 is only a collection of recommendations to take things further, vs a true "plan". Overall, I recommend this book, but I would really like to see Dr Pizzorno and his team step up and add the missing pieces to the book (and share with those of us who have already purchased). It makes him look disorganized and unprofessional - and I doubt very much that that's the reality.

Great Book
I learned quite a bit from this book. I'm suffering from mold exposure toxicity and am having a very difficult time trying to detox. I have become so sensitive from my toxic load that I seem to have Herx reactions every time I try to use binders at even the tiniest dose. My doctor suggested I read this book and I learned that it's not just mold and its mycotoxins that is burdening my liver and detoxifying organs, but my entire toxic load which also includes toxins from the beauty and health products I was using. I have tried to use clean products on my body for the last ten years. This book introduced me to an app that you can check health and beauty products and I found that over half of the products I thought was clean and healthy was not. I have since used the app to switch out these products with clean options. Dr. Pizzorno lays out a 8-9 week detox program that is doable, but will take some restricting in diet (more than I'm already doing) among other things. I haven't tried the program yet, but I definitely plan to. My liver and kidneys are so clogged from trying to detox the mold mycotoxins that they are no longer detoxifying efficiently. He writes that his method is a safe step by step process, which is what I'm hoping for. I do not believe that this program alone is going to heal me from mold illness. My hope is that it will help my liver and kidneys begin to detox more efficiently so that I can take binders such as bentonite clay or activated charcoal without Herxing. I will write an update in the future to whether or not it worked for me.

If you buy one book only, it should be this.
If you only read one book in the next year and you care even just an iota about your health, you MUST READ THIS BOOK. After I researched the background of the author, there is no question in my mind that he IS NOT a charlatan, he IS very knowledgeable. I have always known that minimization of toxicity is a very important aspect of a healthy lifestyle. What I did not know is how pervasive toxicity is in so many things that affects our body. In some ways it is a bit scary to know that we are bombarded with chemicals that are carcinogenic, causes so many disfunctions in so many of our organs and systems, yet he provides a solution that does not leave you on the edge of desperation. It is akin to someone notifying you how and when a burglar is coming to rob your house; would you not want to know? Or would you rather say, if I don't know about it then I will not worry.

Know What You are Being Exposed to in a world full of ever more chemicals and toxins
This book is an eye opener. Written by a highly experienced naturopathic physician with years of experience treating patients suffering from exposure to toxins in our food supply, the products used on our body and in our homes, and environmental sources this book provides an easy to follow guide to rid your home and your body of these toxins and restore your health naturally. This book was recommended to me by a board certified medical doctor specializing in internal medicine. Eliminating toxins from your food, and your home is by no means and easy thing to do and requires a lot of hard work but the payoff are great if you are willing to follow Dr. Pizzorno's advice. Dr. Pizzorno founded and served for 22 years as president of Bastyr University the first fully accredited university of natural medicine in the US.
