 Rating:  - Beware - the suggestions in this book can harm youGot this book after just going through excision surgery and I am alarmed that so many women are reading it because they may harm themselves by taking all of her advice. I agree with the diet, but PLEASE be aware that some of the surgical therapy she discusses in this book is not accurate and can harm you.

I have read a lot of books about this disease and this is still the one that goes into the most detail and the best explanation of the disease process. Don't be fooled by the title....this isn't just a nice little cookbook. This is a scientific study into the relationship between Endometriosis and the food, chemicals and substances we consume, and why so many of them are inflammatory to this condition. I found this work to be absolutely ... Read More
