    I bought his book and couldn't get past all of the paranoia that seems to comprise his "literary style". That's a shame because when I listen to him on TV or radio, he makes so much sense to me! His ideas, I think, are basically sound and worth looking into; alas, his personal "victim hood" was a real turnoff. He needs a ghost writer...or a good editor with a blue pencil.

    Hope this helps.

    Source(s): I read...a LOT!

    I think that he is so obsessed with showing people how the government/FDA is brainwashing us into thinking drugs are the only way, that some people mistake that for a greedy businessman. I actually got both of his books for free. I have been following some of his advice since reading his book about a year ago. I feel great. I also haven't joined his website because I can look up natural cures for free on yahoo.com However, he has a gold mine of information and if I came down with a terrible disease, I would join his site just so I could email him and pick his brain.

    His book is not to cure, it's to bring awareness of taking your health into your own hands and to realize that the industry is to make money off you.. Yes he does charge for his stuff but hey why should he do it for free and be broke.... His web site is $10 a month, I throw that away just stopping for coffee at the convenience store cuz I'm to lazy to make a pot before going to work... I find his info very helpful for finding other resources and opinions...If you really research Kevin himself and see what he has done fighting for our right to know you'll find he has done a lot.. I think he's the reason your starting to see more and more natural ways of fixing illnesses.. cuz they know he's right and the rest of the medical profession wants in on the trend of people find the natural cures for there illnesses

    I followed a lot of his advice from his book. I found it insightful and helpful. I have avoided a lot of things that he stated in his text and it's drastically improved my health. I had West Nile, and in my town, who ends up with it is dead or barely non-functioning. Granted, I'm still working on regaining my immune system back from all the medications western medicine did to me. I took the advice from the book and found a doctor who practices alternative medicine and western medicine (a real licensed medical doctor). The alternative medicine is the ONLY thing that has brought my health back on to the road of recovery. I just order his new book too, interested to see what it states on weight loss (not that I need it, but as a personal trainer I'd like to see what the text has to say). In any case, I think everyone needs to be open minded.

    He is a mental case and a scam artist. If you purchase his book, he gives just enough info on a topic to peak your interest, then tells you to join his website for more info-for a fee of course. He has been shut down on more than one scam before. He just turns back up with another. He should be ashamed of himself taking advantage of desperate people

    He is more about marketting than information. His book is an add for his website so it is a rip off. I think he may have a point but it is lost in his scamming.

    I think he is great and it is time for more people like him to DO something about all this suppression on the planet. What do YOU think?

    I think he is getting rich by playing on people;s fears.
