CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 5.0 based on 12 reviews)
| Pain issues??? This works 100% by Caroline 5 Stars June 07, 2009 I have neurologic, arthritic + migraine pain issues. And, I've followed the guidelines from this book for 3 years. It works! Initially, I strictly adhered to the meal plans because I was wracked with pain... dull aches, sharp knife stabbing pain + radiating pain that felt like small pools of fire. Each brought on by different things.
As my pain decreased + was managed pretty well, I gradually re-introduced some of the food items listed with high levels of AA. Of course, I only eat these foods (chicken, turkey, eggs) occasionally NOW, vs. daily before I read this book. This works for me + I highly recommend!
| | Wanted to read this for a long time by L. Winter (Arizona) 5 Stars December 12, 2008 Win the War Within by Chilton is about a natural way to reduce inflammaiton. As I recently stopped taking an NSAID but still have joint pain, the diet & supplements Chilton recommends complement the other things I have been doing to increase my health. Well worth the money.
| | Revealing and Important by Diana F. Wells (Albuquerque NM USA) 5 Stars March 17, 2008 I have read this book in its entirety. I have a bookcase full of others that are similar but not nearly as complete, with a few exceptions mentioned below.
With several close and immediate family members suffering with inflammatory diseases such as lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Asthma, Crohn's Disease, Psoriasis, High Cholesterol with increasing Homocystine, c-reactive protein and Triglyceride levels (myself) and a paternal family history of fatal heart disease (my father, his 4 siblings and his mother) I have been motivated to take some responsibility for learning all that is available to the layman about such diseases and their causes.
Chilton's book is not about him, it is about what has been discovered to be the root cause of destructive internal inflammation; primarily arachidonic acid, particularly in it's pre-formed state, and found in most "good diets." Chilton makes no claims such as "reversing" damage already done, or "curing" a disease, but this book offers real hope of preventing the onset or escalation of inflammation, due to other causes than infection, to which so many grave illnesses owe their beginning.
Chilton presents the information in a format easily accessible by laymen, with practical guides to food purchases, a scale of possible inflammation which he terms "The Inflammatory Index" and includes dietary recommendations, two diet plans, a glycemic index to the recommended foods as well as an understandable food pyramid and many other useful resources and appendices.
Chilton never recommends anyone drop medical care or current drugs used to treat a disease. He has a prepared letter for one's medical professional which outlines the uses of the Chilton program as an adjunct to medical treatment. Chilton has not inserted pride into this book. He gives full credit to other researchers who's work inspired his or with whom he has worked on the causes of these diseases. The fact that a beloved member of his family suffers greatly from one of these diseases may have inspired him to greater efforts, the results of which he has been sharing with the public as new breakthroughs emerge. This book pulls that research together into real, applicable actions we can take to enhance our health.
I have spent the last ten years attempting to collect usable information, and tried a half-dozen programs/diets that promised results. Some made my own symptoms worse. Only one program and one food sensitivity blood test have made a real and positive impact on my own health and my husbands before I purchased WIN the War WITHIN: The McDougall Program (Dr. John McDougall, M.D.), the information in The False Fat Diet (Dr. Elson M. Haas, M.D). Now, this worthy book will, I believe, provide the biochemical proof of cause and effect that will assist us, the sufferers, in halting the progress of these diseases in our own bodies.
Research Dr. Chilton for yourself before mischaracterizing his work as insufficient or before assuming he is another snake oil salesman capitalizing on the suffering that folks are willing to pay good money to end. If you dismiss this book without actually having read it, you lose.
I have never met Dr. Chilton or anyone associated with him as far as I know, even given the theory of "six degrees of separation." I have written only four other reviews in 10 years of using the resources on Amazon.com. I have no hidden agenda or axe to grind. I do believe in self-empowerment and partnering with our medical caregivers. I personally went from a total cholesterol of 364 to 282 just by removing from my diet the foods to which I learned I was sensitive (the blood test mentioned above). But I still need medication to complete the journey to safe levels of the markers for heart and artery disease. I enthusiastically recommend WIN the War WITHIN.
Wishing you all progressively better health.
| | 100% recommend by N. Kohn (CA) 5 Stars March 13, 2008 I was diagnosed with Still's Desease. Tried 3 different diets, nothing was helping. Inflamation was over the board. After reading this book, which I've borrowed, I improved in a first month probably 40%. I wasn't even following it very closely, and it still worked. Now, I am ordering my own copy. I recommend it for anyone, very well written, easy to follow, and most important -it worked for me!!!!
| | Great Book by E. Itter (Tempe, AZ) 5 Stars January 16, 2008 Great Book with some great information to prevent Inflamation. I found the book very user friendly and easy to read!
