The End of Illness With Dr David Agus
Not much substance in the DVD
IMHO, Dr. Agus appears to be trying to sell his book, which I have not read. As far as the DVD is concerned, there is little substance to it and quite a bit of innuendo. For instance, to prove a point, he cites a study from 1953 on heart disease to prove one of his premises. The study lists the difference in initial instance of heart disease between drivers (inactive) and ticket takers (active) and is shown in rate per 1000. The TTs had almost 1 per 1000 and the Drivers has less than 2 per 1000. 1/1000 is hardly a significant finding and why couldn't he find a more recent study? The assumption has to be that there are none?
the next example is even worse. the study is from 1932 and is showing Coronary Heart Disease in heavy and light workers. It is listed in death rates per million, with the highest rate being 1000 per million and the rest are even lower. Again, this is 1/1000 or less and along with the age of the study is hardly a statistic upon which to base a huge...
I wanted the book and ordered the disc by mistake.
I am sure it is a wonderful book but i find reading discs difficult and not very much fun. So I have read very little of it.
DVD. Health for you'
Very good 5 star. The Information is not same old thing we hear all the time. My doctor recommended it. Very useful info.
