I've been on a journey of health, and I know that some of the things we have been told over the years are either bad science, or just simply not true because we now know what is healthy for us and what isn't. It's refreshing to see a doctor own up to the fact that not only were they taught the wrong things, but they turned around and taught others the wrong things as well. It's a hard pill to swallow, to know you duped so many people, but when we know better, we do better, right? I admire Robert Lufkin for admitting this and trying to correct this via his book. Lufkin goes into detail regarding each "lie" he's ever told, all relating to chronic disease and health disorders that we have long believed were either untreatable or only fixed with medication, which is simply not true. Lufkin himself has reversed four chronic illnesses, and this gives great hope to the rest of us. He discusses what factors influence chronic diseases, such as stress, sleep, diet, exercise and so much more. The author provides illustrations and references, which debunks these outdated myths about our health that many people still believe. There are so many misconceptions about our health, and Lufkin does a great job setting the record straight while offering practical advice and guidance. This book reminded me a lot of <i>Lies My Doctor Told Me</i> by Ken Berry and Lufkin does recommend this book as well. Great minds think alike! This book was incredibly eye opening and empowering. We can take charge of our health and heal, and this book is the first step in doing so!

Thank you to NetGalley, Robert Lufkin, and BenBella Books for the ARC of this book.
