Trudeau's book is based only on his opinions. He is not a doctor, a scientist or a medical expert. He is a businessman and salesman with no medical training. He is also a convicted felon . . convicted of credit card fraud as well as other shady practices. Due to 'freedom of speech' he is allowed to use 'infomercials' to sell his books and opinons . . none of which are based on any type of documented scientific fact. He readily admits that he has no medical background and everything he writes is based on just his opinion. In other words . . he doesn't care if its true or not, or if it is harmful or not . . because he doesn't really know . . it's just his opinion. So, when you listen to him, remember he is being cleverly deceptive so he can sell you what you want to hear . . he is 100 percent a salesmen . . a businessman first. He's not interested in your health, just your money.
No evidence exists that reading his book has helped 'cure' anyone.
When questioned here is what Trudeau told Paula Zahn of CNN:
ZAHN: On the first page of his book, Trudeau says he's using all of the profits to educate people about natural health. On page 125, he revises that to, most of the profits. Then there's that subscription-based Web site. An infomercial monitoring system estimates Trudeau spends as much as $1 million a week on paid programming airing on national cable and probably takes in many times that.
Kevin, you talked an awful lot about the greed that you think drives the drug industry. It has been reported that you run a $2 billion industry. Aren't you motivated by money?
TRUDEAU: I was motivated by money a lot, yes. Absolutely. And making money as I say in the book is not a four-letter word.

Kevin Trudeau never offers any evidence for his claims. An authoritative talking salesman on TV is not evidence that his "cures" work.
When it comes to herbal medications there are so many claims of people being miraculously "cured" but almost all the time any documentation of this is completely missing. Kevin claimed that shark cartilage cures cancer "because sharks don't get cancer", other herbal salespeople claim herb abc cures cancer, and other ones claim herb xyz cures cancer. Who should anyone believe? One of the above, some of the above, or all three?
Modern medicine relies on evidence and the documentation of that evidence so patients are not given medicines that are ineffective.
Keep in mind that just because something is natural that does not make it a "cure" for cancer or anything else. Also natural products are not all together safe. They have negative side effects especially if used in large quantities.
Kevin Trudeau will never answer the question:
How many people took your advertised herbal cures and didn't get cured or never got an improvement in their health??
At best you will get some very vague answer or none at all.
Just because someone is against modern medicine does not make him right, nor does it make him someone who is fighting the good fight. His disclaimer on all of his literature that "this is for information purposes only" shields him from all lawsuits.

I have the book ~ not impressed ~ People do anything to make a buck.
Prescription medication is a blessing compared to what was in place many many years ago ~ It is controlled by the FDA for a reason ~ in some of the vitamins, herbal remedies they sometimes add the words "inert matter" "other matter". This dosnt give me a warm and fuzzy knowing there is some other ingredient that they are not naming ~ could be donkey dung for all we know ~ Im all for the FDA and someone having control. There are many diseases that have "no cure" but with modern day medicine we are able to control these to some degree so that they do not permanently damage, once the damage is done..... sometimes there is nothing more that can be implemented. It all has its ups and downs. As for the internet dont believe what you read, there is a lot of crap out there ~ you have to be wise and use your head ~

I got clinically diagnosed with genital herpes (type 2) about seven yrs ago, when I was still in college and had a stupid one-night stand. I realize lots of young ladies will declare this, but I swear I had certainly not done that sort of thing before. I just made a mistake that one time and suddenly I felt like I was going to have to live with the implications for my entire life. The hardest part was feeling I could never date men again. In the end, who wants to go out with someone who has sores round her private parts? But since a friend shared this movie https://tr.im/KLyJp everything changed.
Not only was I able to eradicate all traces of the herpes simplex virus from my system in less than 3 weeks, but I was also able to start dating once more. I even met the man of my dreams and I'm so lucky to write that just a week ago, in front of everybody in a busy restaurant, he got down on one knee and proposed to me! This system provided me the chance to be happy and experience true love. Now I want to help you too by sharing this with the whole World.

Ever wonder how someone can know all these cures for some many different ailments that " They Don't Want You To Know About"?
Ever wonder why people making these claims have no background or understanding of basic biology?
Ever wonder how a twice convicted felon can sell millions of books?

This book exploits desperate people and the author has been prosecuted for doing so with other activities. He is able to publish because of the US laws on free speech.

Trudeau makes some surprising statements about cures and some damning remarks about the Food and Drug Administration. Considering the following he's gathered, many of whom are physicians, and considering the lengths the FDA has gone to try and "shut him up", I'm inclined to believe much of what he has to reveal.
