Real Cause, Real Cure: The 9 Root Causes of the Most Common Health Problems and How to Solve Them

by Jacob Teitelbaum, Bill Gottlieb

This book is an eye-opening guide that boils down common health problems to nine simple causes and offers the relief readers have been searching for.

An expert in combining both traditional and alternative medicine, Dr. Teitelbaum explains that tackling nine wholly preventable causes is the key to long-term, real relief from nagging health concerns.

Real Cause, Real Cure unearths the underlying causes of more than 50 health problems, steering readers toward cost-effective, safe, and easy remedies to combat woes ranging from acne and food allergies to diabetes and cancer. Readers will discover how getting a full night’s rest can combat heart disease, diabetes, depression, heartburn, weight gain, and chronic pain; how adding exercise to one’s daily routine not only prevents an expanding waistline, but also wards off Alzheimer’s, fibromyalgia, insomnia, and stroke; and how drugs taken to improve our health are a major culprit in why we keep getting sick.

This user-friendly guide takes the confusion out of personal health care so readers can enjoy a life free of needless prescriptions, doctors’ offices, and irritating health issues.

I have briefly looked at many and read thoroughly some books on natural and/or alternative therapies.

The author talks about what is the cause of various diseases and the remedies--mostly herbal and nutritional and others.

In my own life, I have over and over again seen that natural, nutritional therapies have woked best for the health problems that I have had.


I have looked at many of these books and I would say that this is one of the 3 best that I have seen.

Good for looking conditions up and finding suggestions for unconventional treatment approaches. As an overall book, however, my opinion is that the snap-your-fingers-and-be-healed assertions tend to leave those with complex chronic health conditions feeling frustrated when their symptoms are not resolved.

Educates and provides action to addresse underlying causes, rather than just symptoms. Thorough discussions of the 9 root causes, as well as comprehensive plans for various maladies. Includes references for additional support.
