Product Description
Early Acclaim for The Inflammation Syndrome "Challem's new book hits a home run-with the latest research on what to eat and take to defeat our real number-one cause of health problems-inflammation. It's a message of the utmost importance."
-Jean Carper, New York Times bestselling author of Stop Aging Now! and Your Miracle Brain, and columnist, USA Weekend magazine "Treating and preventing inflammation has become a major priority and a breakthrough in today's medicine. Many of our most debilitating diseases can be traced to an inflammatory cause. The program Jack Challem outlines in The Inflammation Syndrome is a great first step in ridding your body of this deadly problem."
-Fred Pescatore, M.D., author of Thin For Good, The Allergy and Asthma Cure, and Feed Your Kids Well "The Inflammation Syndrome compellingly shows how the typical Western diet promotes inflammation and disease. In a scientifically accurate and easy-to-understand manner, Jack Challem lays out the basic nutrition plan for good health and weight loss-a plan that mimics many features of the ancestral and native human diet."
-Loren Cordain, Ph.D., author of The Paleo Diet "Jack Challem has hit the bull's-eye when it comes to identifying the root cause of chronic inflammation-our pro-inflammatory Western diet. Following Challem's recommendations will not only relieve inflammation, it will lay the groundwork for optimal health."
-Jo Robinson, coauthor of The Omega Diet and principal investigator of eatwild.com "In this book, Jack Challem focuses on inflammation, the most important underlying factor in health and disease. Anti-inflammatory strategies can slow the chronic and degenerative diseases of aging-even aging itself. Jack Challem shows us how the antioxidant vitamins E and C, modifying lifestyle factors, food and nutritional supplements, and nutraceuticals can be useful in reducing the risks of inflammatory disorders."
-Lester Packer, Ph.D., the world's foremost antioxidant research scientist and lead author of The Antioxidant Miracle

This is not the most organized presentation of inflammation although it has extensive information on the topic.
I would have liked to have seen more whole foods recommendations in a book titled "The Complete Nutritional Program..."
I'm more than a little frustrated with suggestions to take supplements rather than good quality food.
Overall, I was disappointed and would not recommend this book.

This book has been an absolute life saver for me. At the time I found this book, I was suffering from severe arthritis in my knees, hips, tailbone, and neck. I was hurting so bad, I was seriously worried I would no longer be able to work. I had been on just about every single arthritis medication there is from pills, to injections, to infusions. Nothing helped.
I bought this book in desperation and immediately began to change my diet. It was the only thing I had not tried and that doctors had not even suggested. I eliminated processed foods, red meat, eggs, nightshades, most dairy, and all oils with the exception of olive oil, coconut oil, and real butter. I also eliminated white flour, breads, and pastas. My diet consists primarily of fresh fruit, fresh veggies, chicken, fish, turkey, nuts, brown rice, and only healthy oils. I noticed a difference in only a couple of days, and it took precisely 5 days to be completely pain free for the first time in 22 years! I absolutely cannot believe the difference. I am also a type II diabetic and my blood sugar has improved tremendously. I've lost 6 bls so far without even trying, and my chronic stomach problems have disappeared. I'm feeling so much healthier!
This way of eating has done for me what over $100,000 in meds was unable to do. I can't believe I suffered for so many years. It wasn't easy to eliminate those things at first, but I will do absolutely anything to keep the pain from returning. After being on the diet for 10 days now, I'm certain I can keep with it. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has chronic inflammatory issues that have not been relieved by traditional medicine. It worked for me, and I'm soooo greatful!
Challem is a great writer April 11, 2010

I love Jack Challem. His advice is clear, easy to follow, and can change your life. I have been reading his books to help me change my life and aid my quest to improve my health which I attest on [...].

I feel the same as everyone else, this book is full of excellent information and is backed by tons of research.
Perhaps not the easiest read, but if you are health-minded and want to learn the cause and cure for inflammation and related diseases, this book is excellent.
For those looking to treat arthritis and muscle and joint issues, I would like to recommend "The Permanent Pain Cure" By Ming Chew as an excellent companion book.
I used both books and tons of additional research to recover from shoulder surgery well ahead of time and also relieve a two year old knee injury. Additionally, I feel tons better, have resisted the flu while everyone else in my family was sick, relieved some allergy symptoms, and am a believer for life.
I highly recommend this book.
