"The Immune System Recovery Plan is the right book, at the right
time, by the right person. We are witnessing a significant increase
in autoimmune inflammatory diseases, which include more than 80
different diagnoses. Dr. Blum has done a magnificent job helping
the reader to understand how this family of inflammatory disorders,
including arthritis and fibromyalgia, can be managed with the diet
and lifestyle program she developed in her practice. Her
step-by-step approach is based on her considerable years of
experience as a physician, and the emerging medical science that,
for the first time, has developed an understanding of how genetics,
lifestyle and nutrition play a role in origin of these disorders.
The approach described in Dr. Blum's book represents the leading
edge in the lifestyle management of chronic inflammatory disorders.
It is a 'news to use' book that provides real assistance to those
with inflammatory disorders who are looking for a clinically
sensible approach to their problems."--Jeffrey Bland, Ph.D., FACN,
