Dave I have looked at a lot of alternative health agendas and the one that has a lot of promise in my mind and takes the much preferred preventive route is the blood type diet that has been promoted by a naturopathic physician, Dr. Peter D'Adamo in his book "Eat Right for Your Type." It does not espouse a specific diet for everyone, but tailors diet to blood type. Theories involving lectins, and the effects of agglutination reactions involving specific foods and specific blood types from in vitro and in vivo research are the basis for his work. Site is dadamo.com Another interesting subject is the theory of a John Sarno M.D. involving the mind-body relationship (book's are "Healing Back Pain" and "The Mind-Body Prescription") He gives some specific information in the book on how the mind (unconscious) reduces the oxygen to nerves in the body to cause pain and trick the body into perceiving disease or illness that is not evident. He also gives therapeutic program for dealing with ailments such as these. These are the only two things at present that I can say I have some first hand knowledge of their efficacy. Thanks for starting the thread. Gordon Langston
