What Really Killed Gilda Radner?: Frontline Reports on the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Epidemic

by Neenyah Ostrom

One of the earliest and most thoroughly-researched volumes on the emerging Chronic Fatigue Syndrome -- at the time called "Chronic Epstein Barr Virus Syndrome." This powerful book is the result of over two-and-one-half years of investigating and reporting the Chronic Fatigue story at the very beginning of the epidemic. Writes the author, "While reporting the story you are about to read, I became convinced that governmental health agencies have done everything in their power to ignore, suppress, and even actively cover up the fact that there is a new epidemic sweeping the United States-that claimed Gilda Radner as one of its first fatalities."

[Maria Fledgling Author Park · Rating 5 out of 5]

Although this is an older book regarding the subject of Epstein-Barr Syndrome or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, I really appreciated the thoroughness with which the author investigated the subject. As an older female with two Autoimmune disorders, the facts are horrifying. Our American lifestyle, dependence upon petroleum and poor diets are literally killing us. I highly recommend this to anyone suffering from an Autoimmune disorder.
