How to Recover From Fibromyalgia: Real Solutions for a Real Problem

Dr. Bergman always pushes Dr. Palmer's philosophy of letting God do His work and thus let the body heal itself from all the assaults modern life throws at it. Your body is smarter at a cellular level than any man, woman, or corporation (lets see them build one from scratch!). Magic pills just mask the symptoms and eventually screw up something else in the metabolic processes, usually the kidneys and liver, making you feel even worse in the long run. They are usually very expensive, and never seem to cure or reverse the disease and bring you back to 'normal'. Dr. Bergman says Normal is possible, but it takes some healthy changes in lifestyle.Clean up the diet, thus clean up the blood, exercise or walk a bit every day, and let your own endorphins, interferon, proteins, vitamins, epigenetics, and so on do their job and heal your body from all those chemicals, neurotoxins, and endocrine disrupters you have been exposed to from foods, pollutions, paints, beauty products, cleaners, assembly and testing-related jobs, etc. over the years. These cause the chronic illnesses that the medical establishment and Big Pharma has no cure for, since cells aren't getting the nutrition they need to function at 100%. Fibromyalgia is difficult since it is systematic and there is no simple blood test, scan, or anything to confirm the pain that sufferers know is there (and not just in their head), and there is no man-made magic pill to quickly reverse it, and probably never will be due to the nature of the disease.Dr. Bergman's philosophy is that if you weren't born with it, it can be reversed by the same amazing mechanism that brought you from a tiny pin-sized egg to an adult, which man cannot replicate. You must trust your own body to do what it must to preserve itself, and you need to restore the nerve supply. Sometimes the body does weird things, like grow a tumor or excess fat cells, but that is probably just the body encapsulating and putting into 'deep storage' a toxin that it can't shed. Help the body shed the various toxins, then goodbye tumors, aches, and excess fat! Cells in organs, bones, cartilage, organs, guts, etc. are constantly being replaced, and a year from now, you basically have a brand new body. So, Why don't you feel 'new'??? It is because of toxin build up; a bazillion medical studies support this: toxins are bad for you at every level. The body tends to retain them over the years, especially metals like mercury (from fillings), and lead (from chewing cheap pencils), but also bromines (from some breads), and a slew of others. Getting rid of them is not easy in today's modern world. This is where Dr. Bergman's book and doctors like him are a big help.If you are reading this, it means either you or someone you love has aches throughout their body and no energy, and you want to change that and reverse it; but everything you have tried so far hasn't worked. The solution that is in this book starts to work noticeably within weeks, and it is relatively inexpensive, though you must do your own cooking, and get your pinched nerves unpinched by a chiropractor and some physical therapy, so your nervous system can communicate throughout your body and do its job. The needed 'healthy' changes also positively affects anyone around the affected individual on a regular basis, which is a good side effect! There are no negative side affects by making the needed changes to a healthier lifestyle, getting off ALL drugs (Rx & OTC), and thus getting an healthier body. Food costs may go up, but medical expenses plummet. Personal energy goes up. Chronic pain goes down.Dr. Bergman's extensive knowledge of what goes on in the cells at the molecular level, what nutrients they need, and what poisons the cells, and the interaction between them helps with almost ANY chronic disease. Dr. Bergman is an excellent teacher, where even the average layman can understand and see the sense in the biochemistry of the body. His extensive YouTube videos supplement the book; they are helpful when it comes to recalcitrant parents who need help with chronic conditions. If y'all know the 'why's', hows, and what the goal is, then improving your (or your loved one's) life is easy, at least compared to the alternative of staying medicated and miserable until one dies of kidney failure (like my dad).

This book was written by the chiropractor my family who live in California go to. He practices Holistically... and treats your whole body. One night a week he gives talks on health and has numerous videos on YouTube. I really thought he was a bit extreme in his teaching. What I didn't know until I read this book, is that he became a chiropractor AFTER being healed by one. I didn't know that he had been hit by a car and was wheelchair dependent, in and out of the hospital having surgeries, believing his life was over. He recovered with Body-Mind-Spirit principles (plus good nutrition) and now preaches what he has learned in the process of his own healing. Those of us who were in his shoes are far more likely to adopt the suggested treatments knowing the person once was in their shoes. While I was believing he had always been healthy and strong, I wasn't willing to listen to what he had to say. Now this book lives on my bookshelf.

The book is about fixing the cause and not treating the symtoms. Treating the symtoms doesn't heal you. All the pill pusher doc's out there don't really help anything but the pocket books of big pharma and them selves. Follow the money and you will find the truth! There is no money in healing you but there is plenty of money in return visits to the doctors, pharmacy and hospital. Why do you think cancer is on the rise and more people die each year from it. Atack the source of desease and a cure will follow. Thanks Doc for a black and white common sence approach to healing. I am a big fan of your youtube videos.

I have grown to have a huge amount of respect for Dr Bergman, his years of experience and his personal experience with healing from a big traumatic event in his own life. He is a great teacher and can explain very complicated information in an easy to understand way. I also admire his dedication to helping people understand the principles of health for free via his excellent collection of YouTube videos.Thank you Dr Bergman for presenting a paradigm of health and wellness that resonates with wisdom. I love the way you live out your beliefs and share your vast wisdom and knowledge of human physiology.

Everyone with fibro should read this. Very informative although it could be more in depth. Went gluten free and dairy free after reading and made a huge difference! Just wish he would give more about the solution and less about advertising himself.

Saved my life! I was told there is no cure and you need to learn to manage your symptoms. So not true! I had the great fortune of finding this book. Thank you Dr. Bergman! I am 100% better off than I was before I read this book. It took some time 6 weeks of good Chiropractic care (thank you Dr. Asakura) and much healing of the gut (probiotics, apple cider vinegar, processed food removal & no gluten). I want to think there is no such thing as fibromyalgia in my life. Every once in a while, when my spine gets out of order and I make poor food choices, I get a reminder of where I was and I know what to do. And it's so simple..

Information was very good! I gave it to my chiropractor .the author Dr. Bergman is one of my favorite people to check out on youtube !

I have been told I have fibromyalgia since 1997. I was loaded with drugs and told this may or may not get better or worse. I went to a local Chiropractic office who with in 30 days could stand up and walk on my own and no more meds. I follow Dr. Bergman to keep on learning. Thank You Dr. Bergman.

interesting read, I agree with some of the points raised, especially as i have received treatment from an osteopath for back injury, the problem I see in this is the legal blurb all these Drs put in, either you believe something and stand by it, or you don't, if you are a Fibro or chronic pain sufferer I would recommend it as part of the therapy,I give it three stars for two reasons...:1, it is rather short, spacing in the book is too much so could easily be even shorter in terms of pages, it seems self-published or the printer got a few things wrong,2, most if not all the information can be gained from his youtube videos

A good book, the lady that I bought it for is over the moon

Useful knowledge

Great book

Good
