Try the library. The best way to get books that you might not like.

This fellow claims his book has a cure for everything from acne to cancer...He's a snake-oil salesman that makes no apologies for living very well off the proceeds of his various scams. We are all already aware of his jail time for credit card fraud...It turns out his "miracle cure" is ar... which is available in any healthfood store. Anything that promises you unbelievable results with little or no effort is only going to leave you more frustrated in the end. Try cutting back gradually. 1600 a day to start. Then drop 100 calories a week until you're at 1200 a day. Always "think healthy first". Try fruit instead of giving into junk food snacks. Most fruits have a very high water content so they can make you feel fuller without gobbling a ton of empty calories. They also have a lot vitamins and minerals everyone can use especially when making big lifestyle changes. That combined with 30 to 40 minutes of exercise everyday should have you losing 2 to 3 healthy pounds a week. So start walking, then walk/jogging until you can do the whole 30 minutes without a rest. That will give you lasting results without starving yourself. Eat what you like. Of course healthier is better but not everyone is the salad and tofu type. Just keep a journal of everything you eat with the calorie count. That will give you and idea of where you need to make changes. Good luck

I was curious too, just not enough to buy the book. I got the chance to look at a Friends copy - no way! I read parts of both the natural cures and the weight loss books and decided he's full of crap (sorry no better word for it). The weight loss cure involves injections of a hormone, which is illegal in the U.S., and I doubt safe or effective.
The natural cures were all common sense cures that go back to out grandma's day. They can work but take more time and patience than we seem to have these days.
