Review
From Andrew Cutler, Ph.D. -- In this helpful book, Bryan Rosner presents ten new Lyme Disease treatments and enough discussion of the science behind them to put the information in context and make it useful. Whether you are under a doctor's care or going it alone, this book will help you make good decisions so you can get better. --Andrew Cutler, Ph.D., author of Amalgam Illness --Diagnosis and Treatment
From James Schaller, M.D. -- Remarkably broad and clearly written, this will be one of the top Lyme Disease books of the decade. Bryan Rosner is very gifted at explaining new emerging treatments. He thinks big and offers big solutions. --James Schaller, M.D., practicing physician and author of 16+ books
From Mary Brescia, R.N. -- I am a registered nurse, wife, mother, and patient, and for 15 years I have suffered from three tick borne diseases. I have searched the world over on a quest for healing. Hope is a word Lyme sufferers soon learn is not part of their vocabulary. Bryan Rosner opens the door to hope and offers a roadmap to restored health. By turning the pages of this book, you will learn how to turn the course of suffering. A Lyme sufferer himself, Rosner has paved the way, thank God, for all of us. --Mary Brescia, R.N.
Reader Reviews
I am a Lyme patient and Lyme educator in Georgia. In reading Rosner's book there were some problems that caused me to question its validity. Before writing this review I consulted with a couple of experienced Lyme doctors (ILADS members). Before my thoughts, let me say that I will give the book 2 stars because it is well-written and easy to read. The first problem is that Mr. Rosner is not a medical practitioner. The medical practitioner whom I personally see and the other one whom I discussed this with both agree that most of those "top 10" were in fact not particularly effective in their population of Lyme patients - except for antibiotics (not necessarily Rosner's suggestions however). Both said that probably the main reason that chronic Lyme patients don't get well is that co-infections are not properly diagnosed and aggressively treated. (That was my case with "chronic Lyme" that turned out to be Babesia). The nextwas about the claim that the Marshall protocol is somehow a wonderful treatment. Both thought that it was potentially very dangerous to induce a Vitamin D deficiency is a person. Very few credible Lyme docs still promote the Marshall protocol. In fact, Dr. Klinghardt (recognized expert) from the West Coast used to promote it and now says that his results have been very disappointing. Both my docs said that they would avoid it, and that the people who did manage to improve on it probably did so because of the use of low dose antibiotics. Finally, both my docs chuckled when they learned that Mangosteen was one of the top ten Lyme treatments. (One of them had never heard of it and the other said that it didn't help anyone except one person's sleep problem.) Seems like someone is pushing a specific product for a reason. (I'll leave it at that.) Apparently, there are a lot of useful "natural" substances that should have made the list before Mangosteen. In summary, while there is some good information in the book, overall I would not recommend it to serious students of Lyme disease.
