A BOOK WORTH FINDING
To all my friends with auto-immune disease:
"The Autoimmune Epidemic--
Bodies Gone Haywire in a World out of Balance and the Cutting Edge Science that Promises Hope"
(Simon and Schuster/Touchstone, February 5, 2008)
23.5 million -- that's one in twelve -- Americans suffer from autoimmune disease, making it more prevalent than cancer or even heart disease.
Multiple sclerosis, lupus, Type 1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, FM, CFS, and nearly a hundred other chronic autoimmune illnesses are part of this devastating epidemic, in which the human body, acting on misread signals, literally begins to destroy itself. Alarmingly, the occurrence of many of these diseases has more than doubled in the last three decades, signaling a disturbing trend that can be directly tied to environmental factors in everyday modern lifeincluding our daily exposure to a dizzying array of toxic chemicals.

To those who can't read new books because of the odor of the ink, please look for used versions on www.half.com, www.ebay.com, www.alibris.com, www.amazon.com . If you can't even handle that, search to see if someone has uploaded it as an ebook to read on your monitor.
