Health Wars

by Phillip Day

We are told we have the brightest and the best trained doctors in the world looking after us. So why is Western healthcare the third leading cause of death in our nations today? HEALTH WARS is the penetrating new investigation into the fraud and deceit of the cash-hungry healthcare industry. Author and citizen's advocate Phillip Day uncovers the entrenched scientific error and unhealthy agendas which deliberately prevent the simple answers to killer diseases from becoming known. HAS OUR HEALTH BECOME A SERIOUS MATTER OR SOMEONE ELSE'S PROFIT MARGIN? “One of the striking differences between a cat and a lie is that a cat has only nine lives." - MARK TWAIN

This book is a must read if you are at all concerned with your health and the medical arena pushing drugs as a cure all. I learned so much about good nutrition and the way we hide it and cover up symptoms with drugs. I bought several copies and gave them as gifts. Many topics are covered and most importantly it gives you a direction to good health and improving your health naturally. I can't say enough about this book!

Probably one of the most significant health books of the new millennium, Health Wars, written by UK health researcher Phillip Day, tears the lid off the shameful medical and corporate scandals that are killing our nations. The author also reports on the exciting and straightforward results of research into cancer, heart disease, osteoporosis and a host of other diseases, which we can simply and cheaply prevent or treat with nutrition and lifestyle changes.

Books like this are necessary but I don't like to invest too much time in conspiracy thinking. Perhaps it's my desire to have some faith in humanity and government. Naive? Probably. That said, I found the information in here (taken in moderation and a grain of celtic sea salt) important in keeping the consumer accountable to their personal choices - not to believe that just because the masses say it's okay, then it is. I made changes in my life due to this book which is always a good indicator of a good read.

some of the topics are very well researched, others are a little "out there", but overall, I enjoyed reading the perspective and science inside this book. It's a deep read.

A must read if you are interested in saving your own life. When you read how the medical industry is controlled by the big Pharma boys and how in turn that affects how/if we are medically treated/cured, you will never look at the medical profession again in the same light. You will certainly want to take control of your own life NOW not when you are actually ill.
This book will make you so angry, but hopefully it will also empower you to not look at your medics as though they are God.

I come from a family of medics and have seen how pharma products (including chemotherapy etc) killed my Mum at age 48 and are now doing the same to my Dad!!!! When you understand that the medical industry is a business, then you will "get" how this actually affects who lives and who dies.

From seeing Phillip Day at one of his seminars, I made the local library purchase this book. Lets just say I wish I brought it for myself, some may say its all controversial conspiracies, which is completely fine, if your interested in alternative matters in our western world then this book opens up new doors to exploring those issues.
I didn't care much for statistics and testimonial data from Universities, I preferred to learn more about the issues without being pushed to accept it from a data based view point.
Although I didn't finish it (I had to keep giving back to the library =( ) I would defiantly re read, or finish reading.

A great look into why our general health seem to deteriorate despite all the advances
