"I cured my osteoporosis naturally and you can, too. Osteoporosis a woman's disease, right? That's what I thought, until I was diagnosed with this silent crippler." -Robert Pirello With the help of Bernardo Merizalde, MD, a change in diet and without pharmaceuticals, Robert Pirello did more than arrest his osteoporosis he cured it. And now he shares his compelling story, from diagnosis to cure, from being disabled from his sport of running to finishing a marathon five years after his diagnosis as a way to celebrate his cure and return to his normal, active, athletic lifestyle.

More than 10 million people in the United States already have osteoporosis, and that number is rapidly growing. Another 34 million people have low bone mass, placing them at increased risk of osteoporosis fractures, and with the rapidly aging population, these numbers will continue to increase at a staggering rate. In this tale of passion and recovery, Robert Pirello takes you on his journey and shows you how to maintain and regain healthy bones. Let Robert and Christina Pirello, with Dr. Merizalde; show you how strong bones can be yours naturally, easily, sensibly.

Book Description
Around 54 million Americans live with osteoporosis or low bone mass, but many don’t recognize the symptoms until it is too late. Before a bad fall or fracture renders you immobile, learn how to reduce your risk of developing osteoporosis, manage your day-to-day symptoms, and even treat the disease with the tools provided in Mayo Clinic Guide to Preventing & Treating Osteoporosis. Throughout your life, your bones are constantly rebuilding. But as you age, you run a greater risk of your new bone growth not being able to keep up with the old bone you’re losing. Osteopenia and osteoporosis develop when this imbalance makes bones weak and likely to break. A stooped posture, low-trauma fractures, and collapsed vertebrae are a few of the tell-tale signs associated with weakened and brittle bones. But fortunately, an osteoporosis diagnosis doesn’t have to be permanent. By taking the right steps, you can reduce your risk of future fractures, stop bone loss, and even rebuild your low bone density. In this book, Dr. Ann E. Kearns, a leading endocrinologist at Mayo Clinic, provides clear, practical information on the common causes of osteoporosis and osteopenia, simple ways to prevent bone loss with nutritious foods and supplements, and how to test for low bone mass before a fracture occurs. You will also learn tips for healthy eating and beneficial exercises, using modern medications to stop bone loss and encourage new bone growth, and how to quickly and safely recover from injuries sustained from low bone density. Together with your health care provider, you can take action to maintain strong bones and a full, healthy life.

Book Description
Beating Alzheimer’s is considered by many to be impossible. But incredible as it may seem, the man who wrote this book was given the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease, a diagnosis as dreaded as cancer to most people, and reversed his devastating symptoms. Traditional medicine, with all of its modern technology and thousands of “wonder” drugs, has failed to solve the most tragic illness, one which causes you to be sentenced for the rest of your life to a world of increasing forgetfulness, and to become a burden to those around you, unable to dress or feed yourself, not recognizing your children or your spouse when they walk into the room. How is it, then, that Tom Warren was able to recover from such an incurable disease and now lives a meaningful, useful life? Tom had to take responsibility for his health into his own hands and, through extensive reading, was able to find the crucial steps that led to his recovery. Now his step-by-step plan is available for everyone.
