The Body Heals, written by Dr. William Ferril, hits you where it hurts ... your belly. You'd better read it fast, because if what he says is true, the negative effects to your body brought on by living badly begin to show themselves when you are around 40-to-50 years old. The good news is, it may not be too late: Cellular change is possible, but the longer you wait, the lower your chance for true longevity.
A proponent of the high-protein/fat, low-carbohydrate diet, Dr. Ferril appears to follow concepts similar to Dr. Atkins. Each chapter contains detailed chemical and hormonal interactions as they relate to the "food" we consume. Unfortunately, there are no graphs, equations, tables, molecular drawings or pictorial explanations to demonstrate these various chemical and hormonal reactions.
Dr. Ferril is extremely aligned with alternative medical practitioners, and is clear on the importance of restoring the rhythmic energy (innate) that flows through us all. He is not particularly trusting of the traditional medical establishment, and offers interesting opinions regarding medical concepts throughout the book.
The final chapters illustrate specific blood and urine tests not typically ordered by your average MD during an examination. Finally, the appendix includes a brief review involving a few natural disciplines and the philosophies that drive them.
