Blurb -
" "Why do I feel so awful?" It is a depressing fact that conventional medicine cannot cure more than half of the patients who seek help at general practitioner's surgeries - simply because the doctor cannot find anything to treat. But why should headaches and backaches, lack of energy, depression and anxiety, sleep disturbance, irritability, and a host of even more serious problems just be accepted as part of everyday life in the modern world? Now a new approach to medicine offers hope to doctors patients alike.
Clinical ecology is concerned with environmental illness, illness caused by what we breathe, eat, drink or absorb through our skin. It has been known for years that some people are allergic to pollen or house dust or cat fur. Clinical ecologists began to realise that patients with real and often devastating symptoms for which no cause could be found were in fact suffering a different kind of allergic reaction to everyday foods and common chemicals. And, worse, that they were often addicted to the very things that were causing their illness.
In 'Why Do I Feel So Awful?' Dr David Collison explains in easy-to-understand terms how and why the human body reacts adversely to a variety of substances. He examines food labelling and deceptive advertising, and common chemicals in our food and our environment, and gives practical advice on how to identify possible troublemakers. And once the offending substance is identified, the cure is "deliciously simple" - no drugs, no unwanted side-effects or unpleasant treatments, just eliminate or neutralise the cause."
