5.0 out of 5 stars I highly recommend it!, 18 Mar 1998

By A Customer

This book is a great guide and reference for parents who ever had any doubts about the need for antibiotics as prescribed so readily by the family doctor. Explains very clearly when they are necessary and when not.

3.0 out of 5 stars nice general introduction, 2 Aug 2009

By	D&D - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

This review is from: Natural Alternatives to Antibiotics (Paperback)

A lightweight but interesting general introduction with chapters on the history and dangers of antibiotics and on alternatives such as herbal, homeopathic, foods (good and bad), and supplements such as vitamin C and zinc. I found it a little too basic for my purposes as each of these alternatives deserves a nice, thick book of its own with much more detail - and there are quite a few such books out there.

Whether I would feel confident enough to use any of the suggestions from this book when a child has a high fever is another question. However, it's a great beginning resource.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fighting infection nature’s way, 10 Dec 2003

By	Pieter "Toypom" (Johannesburg) - See all my reviews (TOP 10 REVIEWER)

This review is from: Natural Alternatives to Antibiotics (Paperback)

Way back in the 1940s, the discovery of antibiotics represented a great medical breakthrough that saved many lives in the years since. Unfortunately the over-prescription and unwise use of these medicines have created resistant organisms and in this age of the superbug it is wise to become familiar with the natural alternatives that fight infection and that usually have fewer and less serious side effects.

In this updated and revised of his work, the author considers a variety of strains of infection that have developed resistance since the first edition of this book. The sections on homeopathic, nutritional and herbal remedies and cures for infection have been enlarged and brought up to date.

From this book, it is clear that it is still possible and even preferable to fight infection without the use of antibiotics. At the same time, McKenna acknowledges the value of antibiotics in many instances. This is a valuable guide to alternative ways of staying healthy, and provides a balanced look at health and the antibiotic question.

The book includes a bibliography and thorough index. Another great book that deals with this topic is Leon Chaitow’s Antibiotic Crisis, Antibiotic Alternatives.
