Reversing Neuropathy: Making The Impossible Possible Paperback – April 29, 2018

GREAT!!!!!

Promising hope. But you need to buy equipment if you’re bad off.

Let me start by telling you what this book isn't. It isn't a one stop shop, pop a pill, miracle promising book that guarantees that you will be healthy in 30 days or less. Most people want a quick fix. Get rich quick, get healthy quick, find love quick. This book is a based on sound medical advice and principles for healthy living. I just purchased the book and it has revealed many unhealthy practices that I have adopted in my life. There were certain foods that I had to eliminate, supplements that I had to purchase and lifestyle changes that I had to make. Once I read this book I had a destination and direction. initially I was unable to sleep because of my peripheral neuropathy. I didn't know the cause. I initially thought it was diabetes. My blood sugar however was stable. Once I changed my diet for a week which I actually committed to before purchasing this book I was able to pinpoint the source of my neuropathy. My kidneys were giving me issues. Had I not committed myself to drinking the amount of water recommended a day I would never have figured that out even though I was having back pain. There are numerous physiological issues that can lead to back pain and I never considered that my kidneys could have been the problem. This book gave me keys and principles to figure out the source of my issues. Bad kidneys can't filter out toxins properly and toxicity in the blood can cause nerve damage. I'm now recovering and I still have some issues sleeping because of my kidneys and I still need to consult a PCP (primary care physician) and these are all things that Dr. Prax recommends in his book. If I never improved physically I would have personally contacted Dr. Prax to continue to diagnose my issue. You can tell that he is passionate about people and health and his book personally helped me to enjoy life again without the anxiety of my body failing me. This was a great book, a great read and I would strongly recommend that ANYONE with health issues read this book. I rarely leave reviews, but I believe this is information that everyone needs to hear.

I'm glad I bought this book, because it's the first and only honest writing that tells it as it is, and I've bought many books on the subject. Those purchases were a waste of money. Half of them stated, "accept neuropathy and live with it", and the other 50% are written by unqualified persons on the subject who either think they know what they're talking about, and they don't or they're out to make a fast and dishonest buck ! I think many people, like myself, will find it refreshing and will be happy they bought this book, if for no other reason than it tells the truth, as it is !Now this is where the hard part comes in for you and me. The book is an easy read for anyone. The path to curing neuropathy that's challenging and hard. Simply put, for those who have yet to buy the book, the book lays out the plan, and only effective plan that will work, simply explains sensible eating habits reasonable exercise. Eating limitations means giving up about 90% of our current food intake, like pastries, breads, . The book lists 19 food categories hat either have to be reduced or eliminated from consumption, and sugar and sweetening products are the 400 pound gorilla in the room. As one person with neuropathy, it's either living with leg cramps, swollen feet, sleepless nights, ineffective rub on liquids and lotions, etc. for the rest of a persons life, while the condition continues to get worst as time passes or try Dr. Brian Prax's instructions. Following the food intake as outlined in the book, seems to me to be a much smarter path to follow. The book offers hope, following it's instructions might determine its effectiveness ? Who knows ?

I returned this book because the information is too generic and common knowledge to be of any help.

Too much Blathering! Sugar/Flour and Heavy Metals poisoning are the 2 most common causes of neuropathy. Stop eating/drinking all sugar and flour products and high glycemic foods. Second, find an integrative or functional medicine doctor and have them do IV chelation of the heavy metals in your body: lead, mercury, cadmium, etc. 10-20 or more treatments are necessary. Those are the ROOT causes of neuropathy and changing your diet and metals chelation is the only way to remove a toxic burden of heavy metals from your body. Now you don’t have to buy this worthless book!

I purchased this book in early May, 2018 because of, you guessed it, excruciating peripheral neuropathy pain in my feet. I read Dr. Prax's book and called his office within a week of receiving it. After several years of trying everything I could think of, I finally had hope! He lays out the facts about peripheral neuropathy in an easy to understand way. He is one of the "needle in the haystack" kind of doctors. The kind you hope never retires or moves away. He is a chiropractor but I would have thought he was an MD based on his knowledge. He is very down to earth (needle in the haystack), extremely knowledgeable about issues way beyond chiropractic (needle in the haystack), friendly and courteous yet to the point. I also would be remiss if I didn't mention his friendly, helpful, go out of their way to make this easier staff. I was never spoken to as though I was bothering them or asked too many questions. This is a new approach for me so I had lots of questions. I am working with Dr. Prax and his staff remotely since I live in a different state. There have been a few minor hoops to jump through because of that but Dr. Prax and his staff have stuck by me and guided me through the process. I will update this review after I have completed "my part" of Dr. Prax 90 day plan. Yes, you will play a very important role in your own healing. I love how Dr.Prax thinks - OUT OF THE BOX! Don't give up!

Haven't read it, as it was bought as a Christmas gift for someone. But I have to say, for the money, I was expecting a much bigger book. However, I'm hoping the information is helpful.
