To Hopeful (Outnaboutt) from 18 Nov review.

Hopeful,By all means give the coral calcium a try. I lost my youngest brother just 3 weeks ago to small cell lung cancer metastasized to the bones and liver. Just 3 weeks before he died he saw Bob Barefoot on television and was interested in trying the coral calcium. He had already done all the convention chemo and radiation and was almost dead from those treatments and had begun to realize that the oncologist could not "cure him" as he had so boldly told him he could. I should have taken it upon myself to order it for him....maybe it would have at least eased some of his pain, but I didn't. Instead I put him on a plane and hauled him to Texas to Dr. Burzynski who gladly took $7000.00 and was willing to take more, but my brother said, "no,take me home". In one week he was gone. We were too late going to Dr. Burzynski and we never gave the calcium a try. He had lived 9 months from the first symptom. My advice would be read, read, read! Use your head...don't just follow blindly after conventional medicine.

I have read all the reviews on this book. I also read this book & "The Calcium Factor" as well within the past 2 weeks. My common sense is telling me to try Coral Calcium as well as the other vitamins etc, listed in the book. You see, I have terminal Cancer & have nothing to lose, & possibly everything to gain. I will be contacting Robert Barefoot tomorrow for exactly what I need. I have been to his web sit (www.cureamerica.net), & received additional info thus far. He says on his web site to contact him for help. These books make a lot of sense to me, not because i'm grasping for anything to help me live longer, but because common sense will tell anyone who reads these books that the possibilities are overwhelming. Perhaps it takes a terminally ill person to delve deeper into these books, than just certain people who have nothing better to do than be a poor critic. I have looked into (but not tried) other alternative medicines etc., however the scam-like people that are out there are way too obvious to say the least. I am writing this as a preview of what's to come in my case. I will continue to keep all of you up to date (if you're interested) as I progress in my venture. I hope to make the doubters' stand up & take notice, ( & perhaps help themselves & their families be healthier) as I will when this helps me...I feel that even if it is too late for me, there is bound to be some change. Perhaps the treatment will cure the cancer, or extend my life, or help me feel healthier. Any improvement is welcome.

What's the medical community so afraid of?

In response to Catherine Connell.... apparently she didn't read the book very carefully. They do not rob the protected coral reefs in Japan in order to make the coral calcium product. The government of Japan has crews that go and remove the eroded coral sand from the reefs to protect them and keep them healthy and the coral calcium comes from that. Robert Barefoot's science is sound. If people take the coral calcium and don't have a good response or any response it wouldn't take long for Mr. Barefoot to be out of business. What is the medical community afraid of? It would not be the first time that there has been a sound natural nutritional answer to preventing and curing disease. I applaud those trying to help people live healthier and better lives through nutrition.

If only we could all adopt his principles..

Robert Barefoot tells it like it is in Death by Diet. His facts are backed up by solid scientific research, which is outlined in the book. It's astounding the amount of garbage the average American puts into their bodies, and still lives to be almost 80 years old. Barefoot stresses the fact that we are biologically able to live to a healthy 120 to 140 years, just by eating pure foods, and getting the right balance of nutrients in our bodies.I have read his book, the calcium factor, as well, and there is some great information in this book that the calcium factor does not have. From what is outlined in Death by Diet, it appears that the three most critical minerals to bring into your body are Potassium, Calcium, and Magnesium. A cell cannot function without proper levels of any of those three. Often people look past a Potassium deficiency, but if you are the slightest bit deficient, your cells will misfire and you will feel sluggish and sick.The diet is not the easiest to follow in today's fast paced society, but with proper supplementation with his suggested nutrients, we'll all see another 10-20 years tacked onto our lives.

The greatest preventive medicine book,and real eye-opener!

I cannot extol this book enough! I learned more in this little 138 page paperback, than I have in ALL the books, pamphlets, brochures, etc. I have ever read! The knowledge, info. and formulas for taking charge and gaining control of your own body's health and preventing disease is priceless! Makes complete sense. R.Barefoot does an excellent job in explaining the technical parts of this book,(remember,he is a chemist).My next book will be "The Calcium Factor". Same author.
