Why We Get Sick: The Hidden Epidemic at the Root of Most Chronic Disease―and How to Fight It by Benjamin Bikman

Did not finish book. Stopped at 17%.

Frankly put, this book is full of unsupported science, lofty claims, and explanations that even I, as a first year medical student, am raising my eyebrows at. There are explanations here that simply, scientifically do not make sense. There are also claims that are unfounded by literature reviews and leading research in the field. The book reads as sensationalist and has all the trademarks of quackery miracle cures ("Modern medicine believes X, but the REAL solution is Y, and they're not going to tell you about it!") Quit reading this after chapter 2.
