Editor reviews
This 42 page book manages to pack a great deal into such a small space and is fully referenced so is perfect for introducing your doctor or other professionals to the reality of chemical sensitivities.
Dr Rogers discusses, amongst other things, how nutritional deficiencies and genetic susceptibilities can result in MCS, and a proposed mechanism behind the spreading phenomenon, (when patients become rapidly sensitized to more and more chemicals). There is also a discussion of the role that oxidative stress plays in the development and perpetuation of chemical sensitivity. Dr. Rogers also lists the various chemicals that are most likely to be triggers for the condition and for producing symptoms once someone becomes sensitized.
A large portion of the book is dedicated to the diagnosis and treament of MCS, which of course, is exactly the information that most of those afflicted will be looking for in such a book.
This title is a fantastic introduction to MCS that provides a good overview of the condition, is well written with good references, but doesn't overwhelm the reader. If you suspect that chemicals might be causing your ill health or you simply want a good introduction to chemical sensitivity, this is the book for you. For more in depth information regarding chemicals and health, Dr. Rogers' other books are well worth a look.
