radical: 'ra-di-k l (Latin: radix), going to the root or origin; pertaining to what is fundamental, far-reaching, and thorough
With the historic use of toxic mercury amalgam fillings, excessive courses of antibiotics, damaging childhood vaccines, and the many industrial pollutants and chemicals that have been spread into our air, water, and food over the past century, general holistic health guidelines are simply no longer adequate for most people. Only through radical measures--that is, getting to the true root or underlying cause of disease--can effective healing occur. In "Radical Medicine," naturopathic physician Louisa Williams describes how to treat these and other modern-day "obstacles to cure" in order to ensure against future degenerative disease and achieve the optimal health that is our birthright.
Examining the many health problems triggered by dental amalgams and poor dentistry, Dr. Williams explains that our teeth are focal points for health issues that arise elsewhere in the body. She explores the impact of vaccinations, the excessive use of antibiotics, and the chemical-laden products used as health and beauty aids--which are linked to Alzheimer's disease, heart attacks, and breast and other cancers. She then provides information on cuttingedge treatments as well as drainage and nutritional therapies. "Radical Medicine" is a practical guide for practitioners as well as those who have suffered with chronic illnesses that allopathic medicine has been unable to identify or help treat. It is also extremely valuable for those who must make responsible and informed decisions about health options for their children and other family members. "Radical Medicine "offers a wealth of holistic, natural therapies for treating what is poisoning us as well as our world.
LOUISA L WILLIAMS, M.S., D.C., N.D., received her doctoral training in naturopathic medicine from Bastyr University.

Dr. Williams currently practices at the Marin Naturopathic Medicine clinic in San Rafael, California, and teaches the principles of radical medicine as well as her energetic testing method (MRT) in the United States and abroad.
