Asthma and Bronchitis
Par Jan De Vries. 1991
It is clear that asthma and bronchitis are on the increase, especially in Britain, and there are strong indications that…
this rise may be linked to atmospheric influences. Jan de Vries has over 30 years' experience of treating these conditions and in this important title in the By Appointment Only series he sets out his own ideas about respiratory disorders. He shows, for example, how many allergic reactions can result in asthma-related problems, hay-fever being a case in point. Viruses, bacteria and irritants may result in dry coughs, mucus formation, breathlessness, muscle pain and even light fever, depression and sometimes emphysema. Emphysema is known to be incurable, but Jan de Vries shows his treatments can bring welcome relief.Asthma And Beyond
Par Dr Paul Sherwood. 1995
After helping thousands of people with back and heart problems, Doctor Sherwood deals with more ailments - from the small…
but irritating symptoms of colds to the life-threatening diseases such as appendicitis. Having studied the human lymphatic system for most of his life Paul Sherwood has come to the conclusion that many of our afflictions are rooted in blockages and malfunctions of this vital but over-looked fluid network. Using case histories from his long experience as an eminent West-End physician he illustrates his theories with proven examples - explaining the causes of symptoms in simple terms and the means by which they were relieved. The book concentrates on preventative measures and especially in children where catarrh, ear and throat trouble can cause such misery. There is also an emphasis of this theory in the treatment of Asthma, the bane of modern urban life - with diet, exercise and environmental considerations all playing an important part in health recovery. His original theories on preventing cot-death, asthma, arthritis, sinusitis etc. have already cured his patients - this book will help many more suffers.Arthritis, Rheumatism and Psoriasis
Par Jan De Vries. 1986
Arthritis, psoriasis and related rheumatic diseases are an enormous and growing problem throughout the world, with as many as 80…
million people suffering from one or another of these conditions. Patients seeking help or relief from their own doctors or hospitals are often informed that they will simply have to live with the problem and that little can be done. In this book, Jan de Vries shows how the problems can be reversed by a simple nutritional and natural approach in which there are none of the terrible side effects that can sometimes accompany a course of drugs. Arthritis, Rheumatism and Psoriasis draws attention to a great variety of home remedies, from homeopathy to herbs, and places particular emphasis on diet as a source of cure.Aromatherapy An A-Z: The most comprehensive guide to aromatherapy ever published

Par Dr Dee Dawson. 2001
Anorexia nervosa is a condition in which sufferers diet continually and starve themselves. They may also use laxatives, vomiting or…
