Detoxify or Die

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Detoxify or Die (ISBN 1887202048) is a book written by Sherry A. Rogers, who has also written No More Heartburn: Stop the Pain in 30 Days--Naturally! : The Safe, Effective Way to Prevent and Heal Chronic Gastrointestinal Disorders and The High Blood Pressure Hoax. She is a fellow at of the American College of Allergy and Immunology. The book is about the importance of detoxification of the body, especially of heavy metals. She claims in the book that almost every disease not caused by bacteria or viruses is due to the bio-accumulation of toxins in our body.

In the past 10 to 20 years (at least) there has been an increasing concern with the amount of chemicals building up in our bodies. For much of the history of concern with this issue there has always been more attention given to it with alternative health circles than within mainstream medical circles. Recently the debate over chemicals has shifted away from the actual "presence" of the chemicals (a fact that is much more widely accepted now than ever before) and more toward the issue of whether or not the presence of these chemicals is actually something to be concerned about. The author of Detoxify or Die is one person who is on the side that the presence of these chemicals does matter, and argues in the book why this is the case.
