Warning Notice:

Do not send death threats or harassment to the author. This is only constructive criticism and for educational purposes only. However, I’m going to be vicious on the book and the things said in the book. Also, there will be some strong language.

Introduction:

Hello everyone and welcome to the infamous #mothernaturewantshertreesback. If you are new to this tag, this is where I read horrible books from the first page to the last and discuss why the book was bad. So far, this one is got to be the worst self-help book I ever read.

I know I said that the first book was the worst self-help book, but I was wrong. Don’t get it twisted, the first book review I did under this tag was not great, but at least I was able to make jokes about the silly hacks they have in that book. There is utterly no jokes to make about this one.

As a matter of fact, when I finished and polished my review on the first book, I went down this rabbit hole of the worst self-help books. On one of these articles, I found a book that captured my interest. This book is titled “Natural Cures They Don’t Want You Know About” by Kevin Trudeau.

There are a few reason why this book caught my attention.

• For one, the article mentioned that Kevin is a fraud. So that got me wondering, why on Earth would someone read a book that is published by a fraud and take his advice knowing he is a criminal?
• Second, I read on Goodreads other reviews and how this book is filled with ridiculous claims/cures that has no evidence to back it up.
• Third, I wanted to find out how bad this book really is. I want to know if it is as bad as people are saying it is.

You might be wondering, did I spend money on a book knowing that Kevin is a fraud? Fortunately, I didn’t spend any money on it. With some of these books, I try to not spend money if the author is a convicted criminal and opt-out for either free copies or PDFs.

I got my copy from the dump. If you don’t know what the dump is, it is where we take our trash. Besides dumping our waste, the dump also has a tent where we can donate or take things from there for free. I got a lot of interesting books from there, but one of them was Kevin’s book. It was for free, so I decided to take it home and take a risk of reading it.

After the book, holy hell did I feel like I lost my mind. This is literally my reaction during the beginning, during, and after that is told through GIFS:

After:

This book had so many things wrong with it that this might be the longest review so far in this tag. I’m not only talking about this book, but also about how misinformation harms people since this book has plenty of that, especially with what is going on right now. Take this review as a cautionary tale.

How Kevin And His Website Is A Fraud:

The one question I had when writing this review is where to start considering there is so much to talk about. I decided to start this review by pointing out the author. Like I mentioned earlier, Kevin is a convicted fraud/criminal.

Here is a list including sources of the crimes he’s committed:

• In the early 1990s, he was arrested for larceny and credit card fraud and in 1998 he was sued by the FTC for making false and misleading claims that coral calcium cures cancer in one of his other books. (https://rb.gy/tnzvyt)
• He violated the settlement he made that he would no longer promote products that have no evidence in 2011. (https://rb.gy/un3obp)
• In 2014, he was sentenced for 10 years following his contempt in 2013. (https://rb.gy/wxhufr)
• He was also involved in a pyramid scheme titled “Nutrition For Life.” (https://rb.gy/7kckia)

Among other criminal activity. There are other websites you can find about Kevin. With that being said, I personally don’t think it is a good idea to take health advice from someone who is a fraud. But I have yet to talk about his website.

Kevin runs this website called naturalcures.com. I went on his site to see if what people are saying is true. On the website, he has many conditions, illnesses, or diseases listed alphabetically. For me, I clicked on acne to see what home remedies he suggests. I was able to see what acne is and what causes it, however, when I went under the tab where the remedies supposed to be, it says I need to be a member.

Guess how much the membership is? $100. I’m not shitting you, here is a screenshot that I’m not making this up.

There is a huge problem with this. There are tons of articles out there about home remedies that are FREE. You don’t have to spend ANYTHING. With that being said, Kevin and his website is a fraud. Please do not sign up on his website because god knows what he and his cohorts are going to do with your credit card information.

Funny thing is is that throughout this book, Kevin has to remind you that the pharmaceutical and fast food companies (companies he opposes in his book) are all about the money. He claims that the pharamaceutical companies only care about getting people sick rather than curing them of their disease/illness.

While there might be some flaws in the pharmaceutical industry, Kevin is no better. How can you say they only care about the money if your charging people information that they can get free from other helpful websites? So to sum it up, Kevin is a hypocrite.

Hell, I ain’t the only one with this thought. On chapter 11 where he answers questions, one of them was:

“You say its all about the money, but it seems like you have been rich most of your life, and you charge for your newsletter and website. It seems like you are only about the money too.”

Page 301

This is the evidence that Kevin is a fraud. I’ll say this again to all my readers, if you are finding a home remedy, look elsewhere. I promise you you can find MANY articles that don’t need your credit card information.

Now that I talked about Kevin and who he is, let me go into the difference between fact and opinion.

The Difference Between Fact And Opinion:

Another glaring issue I have with Kevin is his authenticity. For one, he is not a licensed doctor/scientist. Rather, he is a infomercial and used car salesman according to some other reviews/resources. Because of this, NOTHING in this book is based off of facts and its based off of Kevin’s opinions.

To me, this is a HUGE NO NO to take medical advice from someone who has no background in medicine or science. Not only that, but I need to discuss the difference between fact and opinion.

An opinion is a person’s viewpoint on food, characters, entertainment, or other things that are not based off of fact. Take this as an example:

“Bananas are the worst fruit. Blueberries are superior to bananas.”

My opinion on bananas (I personally don’t like them).

This is my opinion, is not based off of fact. There are people out there who will disagree with my opinion, and that is fine. As humans, we all have opinions/viewpoints on things and we should respect each others opinions (though this doesn’t always happen).

Facts, however, are completely different from opinions. Facts are backed up with scientific evidence/data that makes it a fact. You can’t disagree with facts. Take this fact about a giraffe as an example:

“A giraffe’s heart weighs about 25 pounds.”

A fact according to National Geographic and an article by Victoria Advocate.

This is a fact that is backed up with scientific evidence. Here is a link to both sources:

https://rb.gy/q8vckf (National Geographic) and https://rb.gy/v2usht (Victoria Advocate).

So in Kevin’s book, these are his opinions for cures that not based on fact. This is a MAJOR reason why he was investigated by the FDA and FTC (organizations he is strongly against, especially in this book).

He also talks about how the FDA (stands for Food and Drug Administration) and FTC (stands for Federal Trade Commission) are taking away his freedom of speech. While I agree that censorship in the US counters the 1st amendment, I believe its different in Kevin’s case.

For one, he is not a licensed doctor and has no medical background. Second, he gives readers cures for diseases that don’t have cures. Third, he could potentially harm people if they take his advice. In this book, he has the worst claims that are either full of bullshit or they have been disproven.

Here is a list of a few of his “wonderful” claims:

• Exotic fruit juices cure diseases with no cure like cancer, lupus, diabetes, and fibromyalgia.
• Processed food makes you extremely toxic because of the chemicals and you will die.
• Microwaves cause cancer (this has been debunked many times)
• Electromagnetic chaos (like TV, phones, computers, etc.) cause disease.
• Ingesting essential oils (its extremely dangerous to consume essential oils)
• The sun doesn’t cause cancer while sunscreen does, therefore, you should not put it on.

These are just some of the many claims Kevin makes. All of this is misinformation and I will discuss this more in an another section. I want to now talk about the writing style and how misinformation can harm people.

The Atrocious Writing Style:

Besides Kevin not knowing the difference between fact and opinion, his writing style needs improvement. Personally, it felt like he was talking to youngsters rather than to adults. He also likes to repeat these two statements: “I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore” and “Remember, its all about the money.”

These two statements will get on your last nerve, it certainly did for me.

He mentions the statements throughout this entire book. As an example of how often he uses them, let me use chapter 4 titled “who are they?” He says all about the money ten times and he’s mad as hell about five times, and this is only this chapter.

I get it, Kevin. You hate the pharmaceutical and fast food chains that you want to expose them, but you don’t need to keep repeating these statements over and over. All I’m saying is that his writing style could be better. Now that I got that out of the way, let us get into the real meat of this review. Let me go over misinformation and more about the ridiculous or offensive claims Kevin made in this book.

How Misinformation Kills People:

With the rise of the internet and social media usage, it is easy to publish misinformation about a person or false facts. This not only happens on the inter-web, but the media is also responsible for misinformation as well. As a sample of misinformation of a serious situation (I’m going to use me as an example), someone could post online that I’m a criminal. While it could possibly be true, there might be no evidence to support that accusation. What most people don’t do is look at both sides: yes, the person might have committed the crime; but everyone who’s accused is not always guilty.

To me, giving out false information is one of the worst things to do to a person. It could drastically RUIN a person’s life. But this is not the misinformation that links to this book. The misinformation I’m going to go over regards people’s health. As you know, medicines/prescriptions/vaccines either suppress people’s illnesses (medicines or prescriptions) or prevent someone from getting a virus (vaccines).

Before a medication, prescription, or vaccine is out, the FDA checks the product to ensure the evidence is right and that it is safe for the public. Unfortunately, not all diseases have cures. These diseases include cancer, diabetes, fibromyalgia, lupus, polio (has a vaccine that prevents you from getting it, but no cure), among others. But this is why science/medicine exist. Scientists are always looking for ways to cure these diseases.

Aside from medicines, there are also home remedies. In short, home remedies are common household ingredients that help with certain conditions without the need of medicine. For example, rather than buying Ibuprofen for the common cold, you could opt-out for lemon. Some of the popular ingredients used for home remedies include:

• Honey
• Lemon
• Apple Cider Vinegar
• Ginger
• Tea

Among other remedies. Most of these remedies help with common sickness or conditions like sore throat, cough, nausea, vomiting, acne, etc. While there might be evidence out there that these remedies help with these ailments, saying these remedies cure diseases with no cure is a little bit of a stretch. There is CLEARLY no evidence that they have that power to cure, but this is exactly what misinformation does.

To understand what I’m getting at, here are some examples of medical misinformation that was either debunked or led to someone’s death:

Jilly Juice

You might’ve heard of this juice on an episode of Dr. Phil, but if you don’t know what it is, Jilly Juice is a juice that is composed of three ingredients: water, salt, and fermented cabbage or kale. The juice is supposed to “cure” the following diseases: cancer (a disease with no cure), autism (which is not a disease, why the bloody hell do I need to keep saying this)?, regenerating missing limbs (I assure you that once your limb is gone, that’s it. You can, however, get a prosthetic), reverse aging, and curing homosexuality (like autism, not a disease and is offensive).

So who is the person who made this juice? The juice was created by Jillian Mai Thi Epperly. She doesn’t have a medical or scientific background. Because of this, the claims that she makes are not backed up with evidence. As such, many people who consumed this juice either had a stroke or died because they drank too much of it which caused their sodium levels to rise.

One of these documented deaths is Bruce Wilmot. In 2017, Bruce was diagnosed with stage four pancreatic cancer. He began drinking Jilly Juice but he began to drank too much of it. After a month of drinking the juice, he passed away. Epperly responsed to the man’s death, saying that “he didn’t drink enough Jilly Juice.” To get more info, check the Wikipedia page: https://rb.gy/warhlg

Why didn’t the juice cure his cancer like she said? It was because there is NO EVIDENCE that it cures diseases.

Covid-19 Claims:

COVID-19 Claims: This is mostly on Facebook. So many people on Facebook claim that certain things cure or prevent you from getting COVID. These things include the following: alcohol, bleach/disinfectant, methanol/ethanol, etc. First off, I can’t believe people think all of these prevent or cure you from COVID, particularly bleach/disinfectant.

Do people realize what bleach does to your body if it gets inside you? Here is some information from lab-roots (https://rb.gy/gk8k4l) about what bleach does if you consume it: “If you swallowed bleach, it would remain in the stomach for a while. Your stomach and esophagus would experience severe burns. Depending on how much you drank, there could be a chance of death unless you sought medical attention immediately.”

It continues from there with: “To deal with a damaged stomach and esophagus, you may undergo two surgical procedures. During these, the stomach and part of the esophagus are removed and replaced with your small intestine. Since you’d lack a stomach for the rest of your life, you wouldn’t be able to swallow solid foods anymore.”

If you think I’m making this up, here is a video of people going to the hospital because of this: https://rb.gy/1oqm9a. I’m not going to try to make this post political, so please don’t talk about them in the comments. I’ll I’m saying is that people should be smarter than to believe that chemicals cure or prevent a virus. The only way as far as I know that prevents you from getting a virus is a vaccine, just like all of the other viruses in history.

Ingesting Essential Oils:

Bloody hell, let me talk about essential oils. I have nothing against essential oils, however, I’m STRONGLY against people making bold claims that essential oils cure diseases. I don’t usually use essential oils, but I assure you there is NO EVIDENCE supporting that essential oils help cure disease.

Before I talk about why essential oils are dangerous, let me tell you a little about the shady practice behind MLMs.

Essential oils are mostly sold by MLMs (stands for multi-level marketing) like doTerra. MLMs are companies that encourage existing sellers to recruit new ones to sell their products. This is where the hun-bots (people who sell MLM products) come in. Hun-bots like to sell you things like essential oils and say that it cures this or that. What you need to know about MLMs/hun-bots is that they are part of a pyramid scheme.

If you don’t know what pyramid schemes are, by definition provided by dictionary, it is a form of investment where each participant that pays finds other participants, particularly two. Returns are then given to earlier participants using money from other participants. This form of investment is ILLEGAL in the US and in other countries.

If you want to know more about this practice, I encourage you to look at Medium.com’s article or the Medium’s graphic down below. They go over what a pyramid scheme is and how to detect one:

https://rb.gy/hj06lu (Mediums website)

So if anyone sells you essential oils on Facebook or elsewhere or selling doTerra products, DO NOT buy from them! Anyways, back to why essential oils are harmful.

Essential oils are not made to be consumed. They are dangerous to the human body. According to Still-point Aromatics (https://rb.gy/ycqlv4), they are made with hundreds of chemicals, which makes them highly concentrated. Because of its high concentration, essential oils gives your body negative effects like:

• Stomach irritation
• Ulceration in mouth, esophageal tract, and stomach lining
• Severe allergic reactions
• Teeth enamel wearing off
• Seizures
• It also puts stress on your organs because the oils are not soluble in water which also makes the stomach hard to metabolize and assimilate.

Vaccines

Last example I want to talk about is vaccines. You might’ve heard the claim that vaccines cause autism. Let me say that this has been debunked MANY times from multiple sources. Here are three sources that debunks the claim:

https://kidshealth.org/en/parents/autism-studies.html (Kids Health)

https://www.chop.edu/centers-programs/vaccine-education-center/video/do-vaccines-cause-autism (Chop Education)

https://www.historyofvaccines.org/content/articles/do-vaccines-cause-autism (History Of Vaccines)

According to the History of Vaccines, it is unknown what causes autism. However, it has been disproven that vaccines cause autism, yet people still believe it. If you want to know my honest opinion as someone who has a relative who has autism? Let us say that vaccines cause autism (I know it doesn’t, but let us say it is true), if I was a parent of a child, I rather have a child with autism rather than them suffer from a disease that they most likely will die from.

I don’t think these parents realize that children’s immune systems are vulnerable to diseases. Children’s immune systems are developing and are not strong like adults. Because of this notion that vaccines cause autism, many parents don’t want their kids to be vaccinated.

But it’s a bunch of bullshit, so why do people still believe it? Oh wait, it’s because there are ASSHOLES who believe autism is a disease. This is why I hate organizations like Autism Speaks (though that’s for another rant).

Of course, there are tons of other examples out there on the internet that is misinformation. I’m in no way saying that everything that is on the internet that is medical is false, but it always needs to be backed up with some form of evidence. As humans, I think we need to do better fact-checking before taking the advice. Now you might be wondering, why I’m mentioning all of this when it is not part of the book? That’s because Kevin makes claims similar to the claims above. They are either really insensitive or they are simply nuts.

Kevin’s Ridiculous Claims:

Let me start by talking about Kevin’s ridiculous claims. Like I mentioned in the second or third section of this review, I listed the claims that Kevin tells you in his book. Let me start with processed food. In chapter 5, Kevin criticizes processed food or food that is not 100% organic. He tells you that it is toxic and therefore you will die.

While I agree that you shouldn’t eat too much processed food (not completely stop eating it but reduce it enough and just eat it in moderation), Kevin makes it seem like you get ill or die from processed food. If that is the case, how come I’m not dead? There are chemicals in food like salt or sugar. Are they harmful to humans? They certainly not (though you can get a stroke if you have too much salt).

Also, like to point out that organic food uses chemicals as well. According to NPR (https://rb.gy/iznfto), organic food uses fewer pesticides compared to other food, but there are certain pesticides used to preserve certain foods. The USDA is in charge of listing off the right and dangerous pesticides that farmers can and cannot use. NOWHERE in Kevin’s book does he clarify that.

Another silly claim Kevin says is that animals don’t get sick. This is not correct. Let me use dogs as an example. Dogs are vulnerable to disease, especially rabies (other animals other than canines include bats, raccoons, and cats). According to the CDC, 60-70 dogs are infected while 250 cats are infected with rabies. On the other hand, dogs are getting less infected from rabies and most cases of rabies is coming from bats.

Other than dogs, there are other examples of animals that get sick like cats (they carry diseases in their claws), birds, reptiles and amphibians, and even ducks according to the Minnesota Department of Health (https://rb.gy/pdnwyh). So, Kevin, your claim has been debunked!

There is another claim that Kevin says that microwaves cause cancer. Out of all the cooking utensils in my kitchen, I rarely use the microwave to cook food. The oven or the toaster oven are superior to the microwave in my opinion. However, there are times I use the microwave if I want to heat something quick like my coffee or food that was in the fridge. I was NEVER tested positive or had symptoms for cancer.

In fact, this has been debunked by multiple sources. According to SGMC Cancer Centre (https://rb.gy/enehrm), there is no link between microwaves and cancer. Microwaves use electromagnetic energy to heat up water molecules from food. Microwaving your meals does not change your food, making it less likely for you to get cancer. Speaking of electromagnetic energy, Kevin believes you can get diseases from it.

Never, ever, have I heard this claim in my entire life. If you don’t know what Kevin is talking about, he is talking about how computers, TVs, phones, microwaves, or other technologies cause disease. I don’t believe this for a second, considering I use technology practically every day. Oh, but the claims get even more comical.

Like I said throughout this review, giving people “cures” for diseases that have no hard evidence to prove this cures their disease is awful. Kevin does exactly that when he says that three exotic juices (mangosteen, noni, and wolfberry) cure diseases that don’t have a cure like lupus, fibromyalgia, diabetes, and about twenty other diseases.

First off, where do you get these juices and how much do they cost? Second, what are these three fruits? I live in the US and the only fruit out of the three I heard of is mangosteen. And third, WHERE IS THE EVIDENCE THAT THESE JUICES CURE THESE DISEASES?! There is none! Absolutely zero!

Jesus on a pogo stick, this is why I hate this book so much. He also mentions throughout chapter 13 about cleanses, but never specify which ones to use. Absolutely absurd.

The last ridiculous claim I want to discuss regards the sun and sunscreen. As you know, getting too much sun on your skin leaves a burn and can be potentially dangerous since it raises your chances of skin cancer. Well, according to Kevin, this is the complete opposite. He says that sunscreen causes cancer while the sun cures disease, therefore you should not put on sunscreen.

Does Kevin know that the sun emits UV rays? Also, according to Harvard (https://rb.gy/ljesyp), there is no evidence that sunscreen causes cancer. The reports were incorrectly implied because people were visiting sunnier climates, therefore they needed more sunscreen. To add to this fact, about 90 percent of non-melanoma skin cancer is caused by, shocker, the sun according to the skin cancer website (https://rb.gy/yhntqp), and the HHS website (https://rb.gy/uai8mu).

This book is an absolute travesty. But hold on, I ain’t done yet. I’ve yet to talk about the offensive claims Kevin has made in this book.

Offensive Claims:

Other than the claims above that have been debunked with facts, Kevin also has claims that are really insensitive. One example is this: NOTHING pisses me off more when someone says that autism is a disease.

Autism is NOT A DISEASE and it will never will be one. Want to know why? Autism is a developmental disability that someone is born with. As someone with a relative with autism, this is offensive to me, my relative, and anyone who has autism. My relative is not diseased. He is alive and well. Kevin puts autism as a disease in chapter 13. Besides autism, he also has ADD/ADHD.

By definition provided by VeryWellMind (https://rb.gy/ngsxcc), ADD is a neurological disorder that causes behavior problems such as difficulty attending to instruction, focusing on schoolwork, keeping up with assignments, following instructions, completing tasks, and social interaction. NOWHERE in this article does it say it is a disease.

Another offensive claim Kevin makes in his book is his view on the HIV/AIDS pandemic. In chapter 12 at the top of page 327 where he has a heading and includes other books for you to read, he says, and I quote: “Not convinced that AIDS is one of the greatest hoaxes and deceptions ever perpetrated on the American people?” Yeah, he says that AIDS is a hoax and it is not real.

Tell that to the 38 million infected with AIDS in 2019 according to HIV.com (https://www.hiv.gov/hiv-basics/overview/data-and-trends/global-statistics). This is really offensive towards people who are affected by AIDS. And of course, he is against vaccines as well, so fucking ridiculous.

These are the offensive claims that I found in his god-awful book. I guess you could say I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore.

Conclusion:

After I finished this propaganda, I never had so much hatred towards a book. I wanted to do this article fast so I can send this steaming pile of trash back to the dump. On the cover, I will put a warning label giving people a heads-up about this book.

This isn’t just a review about a terrible book, but I want my review to be a cautionary tale about the dangers of the internet. Like I said, not everything on the internet is false, but you should fact check before taking the advice.

Here is a short guideline on how to find out something is false:

• Look at other websites: The websites that are great for debunking are mostly EDU or GOV websites. Do your research to ensure the fact is true.
• Scientific Evidence: Every medical claim needs to come from facts. If there is no evidence to back it up, this means it is BS.
• Don’t Believe Everything: This is especially on social media. Not everything is true about a person/claim. It all boils down by doing research and looking from both sides.
  

This is my advice to avoid falling for misinformation. Thanks for reading my review. I hope you enjoyed it and liked the GIFS I put in. I hope I didn’t put too much into this review. Like, share, and follow my blog if you want more content, it means a lot to me. But now, I need to take a trip to the dump.
