About this listen
One doctor’s surprising answer to the epidemic of autoimmunity and chronic disease.
Over the past 50 years, rates of autoimmunity and chronic disease have exploded: Currently, one in two-and-a-half American children has an allergy; one in 11 has asthma; one in 13 has severe food allergies; and one in 36 has autism. While some attribute this rise to increased awareness and diagnosis, Thomas Cowan, MD, argues for a direct causal relationship to a corresponding increase in the number of vaccines American children typically receive - approximately 70 vaccine doses by age 18. The goal of these vaccines is precisely what we’re now seeing in such abundance among our chronically ill children: the provocation of immune response.
Dr. Cowan looks at emerging evidence that certain childhood illnesses are actually protective of disease later in life; examines the role of fever, the gut, and cellular fluid in immune health; argues that vaccination is an ineffective (and harmful) attempt to shortcut a complex immune response; and asserts that the medical establishment has engaged in an authoritarian argument that robs parents of informed consent. His ultimate question, from the point of view of a doctor who has decades of experience treating countless children, is what we are really doing to children when we vaccinate them.

Great non-conventional health information, but....
This book contains a lot of really good information, and he offers an alternative point of view to conventional health knowledge. I loved the book and found it quite interesting. Its a good thing he included testaments from patients that he's successfully treated. However, its a little disturbing to learn that the author Thomas Cowan was fairly recently forced to surrender his license as a physician due to his theories regarding Covid19 and electromagnetic waves (5G specifically).
That said, I still think this book is still worth reading, as long as your knowledge about human health doesn't comprise of just this book alone. Its good to hear from a former physician with an unconventional view of our health, in addition to the educated opinion of the thousands of other health experts out there that we can read about.

A must read for any family.
this information needs to be the jump off point for any body working with an autoimmune condition or starting a family. Tom Cowan lays the information out simply and eloquently and forces you to start looking at these topics from a different perspective.

Great book interesting perspectives
I enjoyed this book, lots of great discussion on how our immune systems work and how various factors affect how effectively they work and ways to support them. I recommend this book to anyone looking for more info on our immune systems and autoimmune issues.

Articulate, Concise, indispensable!
I loved every moment of this book. It's so rare for me to feel magnetically pulled back into the pages of a book, so for this piece to draw me in with such force is a testament to the power of the teachings. Well written, concise, powerful!

autoimmune!
this was very interesting , ibhave an autoimmune myself so i really appreciate the indepth talk about autoimmune diseases and it helped me understand a lot of my own connection to my problems. He even has a very intriguing sounding treatment for autoimmune with narcan . i know weird ! the drug that treats addiction overdose. I want to try it and hoping one of my specialists are open minded to prescribing me with narcan for my autoimmune. i knew alot of the vaccine issues but it very nice to be educated on it especially when i face so many oppositional personalities towards my beliefs on it concerning my children. thank you for this book i enjoyed it the most out of all of my books . cant believe im through it already .
