Description

Author Paavo Airola could be considered among the first wave of "functional medicine" or biological medicine enthusiasts. He describes his research and observation of European Clinics that treat arthritis not with medicine, but with a variety of strategies to clean the gut, enhance circulation, keep patients moving, and "recharge" their body throu ghnutrition. He offers a variety of interesting case studies of those who are cured after days, weeks, or months spent in the clinics/medical spas. As with other functional medicine books from their era about arthritis--and now gaining attention in new forms--the methods he describes involve vegetable/juice/broth fasting, a return to organic fruits and vegetables and whole grains, enemas and colonics, exercise, and plenty of rest. Finally, he presents advice on how one may achieve similar results in a home-based setting or with the supervision of a biological (functional) medicine specialist.
