This is a book everyone needs to read
I found this book to have such detailed information on subjects that most people know little or nothing about. I was surprised to read about all the things that hinder our health. After taking Dr Colbert's advice, my health improved.

This is a book that everyone needs to read, it could keep so many people from unecessary sickness that we cause upon ourselves and don't even realize it.

Dr. Colbert Was Mercury Poisoned from Dental Fillings!
The first chapter "The Menace of Mercury" really grabbed my attention because Dr. Colbert was mercury poisoned from leaking mercury dental fillings. He tells about developing chronic fatigue and becoming jaundiced from the poisoning. He tells how to detox with natural supplements, and how to find a safe biological dentist to safely remove the filling. (But his telephone number for a dentist referral didn't work. Call 1-800-311-6265 for a number that will refer you to a dentist.) He gave a number for finding a MD who knows how to treat mercury toxicity (1-800-LEADOUT). He also told the symptoms of mercury poisoning and how mercury would mess up different systems in your body because "mercury is more toxic than lead, cadium and arsenic!" He said that it messes up the digestive bacteria in the gut, can contribute to antibiotic resistance, and interfere with nerve impulses in the body leading to neurological diseases. He connects mercury to infertility, birth defects, miscarriages, loss of concentration and memory. He gives many more effects and symptoms, but you will have to buy the book. It is worth buying so you can pass it on to someone else and help them.

Dr. Colbert said that mercury can cause autoimmune diseases in the body such a "rhematoid arthritis, Hashimoto's thyroditis, multiple sclerosis, lupus and other autoimmune diseases." Since Dr. Colbert is a holistic physician he understands the dangers of toxicity whereas traditional physicians don't even recognize the symptoms. His advice along with other authors like Dr. Hal Huggins has helped me through my time of chelating (ridding) my body of mercury.

He told how the American Dental Association refuses to admit that mercury in the teeth hurts people because they are afraid of lawsuits. The ADA says that mercury in amalgam is tightly bound in the filling, but if that is true, how did a medical doctor like Dr. Colbert become mercury poisoned? Dr. Colbert says mercury isn't bound, because he was poisoned when mercury leaked from his teeth.

Dr. Colbert is an example of just one way mercury from teeth can poison you. Only one chapter pertained to mercury poisoning. He also told other ways we are damaging our health in other chapters. If persons would take his advice on getting the mercury safely out of their teeth, detoxifying their bodies and using non toxic cleaning supplies they could be on the road to recovery from diseases like chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia.

I applaude Dr. Colbert for speaking out on this mercury issue because I was mercury poisoned myself from breathing mercury vapor while a dentist drilled into a "silver" filling. (Go to www.mercurypoisoned.com for my story.) Dr. Colbert will help wake up the Christian community to the fact that "silver" fillings are very dangerous because they are actually 50% mercury. Christians, are you paying attention??? God sent this man to warn you. Are you listening or yawning and saying, "Oh, it won't happen to me." It happened to Dr. Colbert and it happened to me, and it can happen to you. It is very true that WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW MAY BE KILLING YOU.

Solid Book. Great Info. A Little Overwhelming.
"What You Don't Know," is a great book that gives well researched information of the various things that a person needs to do to improve their health. It is generally easy to read without all the medical babble and scientific terms that can all to often make health books seem like a text book.

After reading the book you will most certainly be reconsidering the foods, vitamins, etc. you are consuming (or not consuming but should be). My only comment here is that in many ways one is forced to say, "What Dr. Don Colbert says makes sense and the research seems to back it, but how in the world do I really do all this?"

In the back of the book, the author does offer the ability to buy, from him, the proper supplements one needs to maintain good health (for about $80 a month as I recall). Perhaps, the book was written to sell Dr. Don's vitamins? Could one go to all this trouble just to sell vitamins? Hmm, one is forced to wonder.

Overall, vitamins or no vitamins, the book is a worthy read. I'd recommend it.
