What is the name of the gentleman who wrote a book about remedies & got baned by the FDA?

Answer 1

You're thinking of "Natural Cures THEY Don't Want You to Know About", by Kevin Treadeau. It was not actually banned by the FDA. Mr. Treadeau was given an injunction by a federal court at the request of the FTC to stop making claims for products that had no therapeutic value. He was recently sued a 2nd time for failing to comply with the court order. That, however, had nothing to do with the book. After reading it, I can tell you it is pure horseshit. As a ND, I am all for natural medicine, but the crap he is talking about is scientifically unsound. If you are interested in natural treatments, a better option would be Murray and Pizzorno's "Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine".

Answer 2

Kevin Trudeau was the person you were thinking of. I found the book in the barnes and noble book store. The book is great. I purchased it. I think that this was money well spent. I also thought the book Home Remedies who was edited by: DEBORA TKAC
ALSO BY THE EDITORS OF PREVENTION MAGAZINE HEALTH BOOKS

Answer 3

I think it's Kevin Trudeau. I was just looking through his book at Wal-mart today. Apparently there's a lot of good stuff in there that might be really helpful.
