Rheumatoid Arthritis: The Infection Connection {Targeting and Treating the Cause of Chronic Illness}
Not really that useful. Info seems redundant and wasn’t really helpful to me.
Rating: 1 / 5
I was greatly disappointed by this treatment of a very interesting and worthwhile theory. There appeared to be no attempt at evaluation, at selecting points with stronger evidence versus those with weaker evidence – everything was hurled into the mix. Ewald’s book is a much better treatment. The recommended diet would likely improve anyone’s health – especially if you make an intelligent effort to prioritize between the risks (for instance – eat less fat (kills tens of thousands each year) versus avoid meat stored in plastics because of plasticizer migration – hasn’t killed anyone that we know of.)

This was the first book I read on the topic of Rheumatoid Arthritis. I found it to be extremely well researched. The writing style is straight and to the point and covers all pertinent topics.The book answered so many of my questions. I could identify with the author’s desire to take control of her own health. She tells exactly how to do so in this book.I have read 8 additional books on the topic and continue to use this book as a reference. This was the first book to give me a degree of hope. I highly recommend this book for RA sufferers.

Six years ago I was told that I was suffering from the “sudden onset of acute, aggressive, raging rheumatoid arthritis, that I had an army marching in my body and if I did not go onto conventional treatment would end up in a wheelchair within a year”(to quote one of the leading rheumatologists in Cape Town)
I believe in the intelligence of the body. I do not believe in the existence of auto-immune disease. Katherine Poehlman confirms this for me. To my knowledge the body ends up attacking itself in its attempt to rid itself of invading bacteria, viruses and/or parasites. For me, The Infection Connection is, indeed, the missing link pulling together 6 years of research into trying to cure myself. It has definitely fast-forwarded my cure.
I have taken the wealth of knowledge from the book and, being a homoeopath myself, have made homoeopathic remedies of the invading organisms which I have been taking for the last two months. My swelling has gone down by 90% and I am successively becoming more mobile. I cannot thank Katherine Poehlman enough for the wonderful, generous, user friendly presentation of her knowledge.
I hope, in the future, to be to help many people suffering from so-called auto-immune diseases, many of them not having access to proper medical care anyway, (I live in a third world country) which will end up being their blessing as my refusal to go on conventional medication was mine. Once again, thank you, Katherine.

This is a very interesting book with lots of information concerning RA disease. Has given me information to take to my doctor and ask about. Reaffirmed my belief of bacteria and virus types being the root cause of this disease and possibly other autoimmune diseases. Has given me some ideas of things I can do myself while waiting for test results and doctor to get on board with the lastest treatment options. Pretty easy read. Recommend to anyone who wants more understanding of RA and possible test and treatment options that may be different than conventional treatment options.
