Book Reviews of From Fatigued to Fantastic
Book Review: Fantastic is Fantastic
Summary: 5 Stars
Dr Teitelbaum has done an exceptional job writing this book. Since it is so hard for us to read and understand information, he has stated his program with an organized and easy to understand format.
I started his program at one of his clinics three months ago. This book and his program has done for me what no one else could in the last 7 years. I am almost pain free, and able to do a little more each week.
Since Dr Teitelbaum has Chronic Fatigue/Fibromyalgia himself, he has studied, experimented and listened to himself and others. His program has medical facts to back it up, and are explained extremely well in this book. I did not realize how many people were as sick as myself, until I started going to one of his nationwide clinics.
This book is for anyone who has fatiuge, or pain, or who has a loved one with unexplained symptoms that doctors are putting off as a mental disorder. Fibro and Fatigue are real, and Dr Teitelbaum and his staff of doctors have the answers, and will help you every step of the way.
Buying this book has been a God send for me. It has information that I reference all most daily. Good luck with your search to get well, but getting this book is a great first step.
Book Review: Tired no More: From Fatigued to Fantastic to the rescue!
Summary: 5 Stars
From Fatigued to Fantastic! By Dr. Jacob Teitelbaum, M.D.
This book could easily have been subtitled: "Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Chronic Fatigue and Fibromyalgia, but Were Too Tired to Ask." No need to ask, because as one commercial goes, "It's all in there!" Not only is the coverage comprehensive, it is written with compassion, care, and concern for the person plagued with chronic fatigue and its related syndrome, fibromyalgia.
The core of the book is Dr. Teitelbaum's SHIN protocol. This acronym represents Sleep Issues, Hormonal Support, Infections, and Nutrition. Each of these four important areas of treatment has its own chapter, because he believes these four issues, with symptoms treated simultaneously, are the most crucial to overcoming chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia. However, the book goes well beyond these four important points, because Dr. Teitelbaum includes natural remedies and prescription pain relief remedies, weight gain associated with the illnesses, and the mind-body connection in illness. For example, Chapter 10 is called "Am I Crazy?" and one I would recommend reading first if you have any doubts about the reality of CFS/FMS.
Read, learn, and restore your energy.
Book Review: From Fatigued to Fantastic
Summary: 5 Stars
If I have learned nothing else from my experiences with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia, I have come to understand the need to educate myself about my health issues. Often health care professionals simply don't have the knowledge of how to help my symptoms. Unless they specialize in these conditions, they simply can't keep up with the bulk of current research. Therefore, the onus is on me, as someone dedicated to my good health, to be part of the solution.
For those individuals wanting to educate themselves on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia, From Fatigued to Fantastic is a very good resource. It begins with those fundamental questions that we all ask. What are these conditions? What causes them? Why did I get them?
The author then takes the reader deeper into his or her own concerns. Each section lays out particular symptoms, the root of these problems, and what can be done to alleviate these specific issues. I really like that the author sets out a variety of different alternatives. Some involve diet and exercise modification while others involve herbal supplements and/or prescription medication.
Book Review: Excellent Reference to Healing
Summary: 5 Stars
Having CFS, at first I considered this book a joke. As sick as I was, how could Dr. T's SHINE protocol help me? But as I took a closer look, I realized that he was on to something...with his serious look at hidden viruses, and the recent attention called to the XMRV virus it was evident that a clearing out of viral infections is key to getting well. And sleep -- I had become so accustomed to not sleeping well that I hadn't realized it's vital importance to being healthy. There is much more to this book, and I would highly recommend it to anyone with CFS or Fibro.
The only thing missing from Dr. T's protocol is why the body holds on to these viruses, as called attention to by my OD. Cranial Sacral work is essential to letting go of viruses and balancing the mind and body to a point where it can heal itself. Combined with the regime recommended in this book, and Jade Edward's Sok Ko 'Inner-Qi' Energy Healing sessions, I am on my way to being healthier than I've ever been!

Book Review: changed my life!
Summary: 5 Stars
I am so happy I finally read this book! It explained all the weird syptoms and why they were happening to me like nothing ever has. I have had fibromyalgia for 6 years at least have been diagnosed for that long but have had syptoms for alot longer. After having my baby I got so much worse and was in so much pain it was hard to get out of bed in the morning. Doctors just wanted to keep throwing more antidepressants at me and make me feel like more of a zombie. After reading this book I am finally starting to feel like myself again. I have started working out and after cutting sugar out of my diet I wonder why I didn't do it a long time ago. I feel like I am able to be the mother I want to be and be energetic and happy. It is not an easy road when you are not just depending on one pill to make you better but it is so worth it when you have this difficult illness. Anyone who has this illness needs to read this book and find a doctor that will help them follow the protocol!
