Gary Null with James Feast. Germs, Biological Warfare, Vaccinations: What You Need to Know. New York: Seven Stories Press, 2003. Paperback, 304 pp., US $16.95 / CAN $26.95.
Gary Null, a leading health and fitness writer, has authored several best-selling works, including Get Healthy Now! In
this book he addresses a subject that is of concern to a growing number
of people: the threat of biological warfare and bioterrorism.
There
is little doubt that because of the degradation of the environment, our
immune system is already greatly compromised and that major diseases
once thought to have been eradicated are on the rise again. What if, in
addition, we were exposed to toxic germs because of a lab accident or
terrorist attack?
Null, who considers our
present-day situation critically serious, gives a great deal of space
to reviewing the history of deadly epidemic diseases, our mismanagement
of the biological agents causing them, the ineffectiveness and even
danger of immunization, and the specter of bioterrorism. His
revelations are sobering and scary to read.
Fortunately,
in Part 3, he examines how we can ward off lethal germs by means of
diet, detoxification measures, de-acidification techniques, and
distressing programs, as well as by means of the use of
immune-system-boosting herbs, vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients.
This useful book, which also includes a list of resources, should be
part of every household’s survival kit. |
