My elderly aunt has been plagued with arthritis for years and hasn't
always been willing to try alternative treatments. As her pain
progressed we convinced her to try the glucosamine and condroitan
blends. She is seeing substantial improvements! Our daughter is taking
it as a way to heal her back injuries due to an accident. She no
longer needs those heavy duty pain killers. Buy both of Theodosakis'
books and see for yourself....Treat arthritis naturally and see how
much better you feel without those pain killers that make your mind
fuzzy.
 Worthwhile and perhaps more May 3, 2000

This is the requisite "book biz" follow-up to their earlier book, The Arthritis Cure: The Medical Miracle that Can Heal, Reverse, and May Even Cure Osteoarthritis (1997), which I'll also report on here, treating both books as one. My initial reaction was, this is either a public service or a hustle. Written by three different laureled academics and obviously put together by committee, the earlier book was a big time best seller and occasioned this sequel. Most of the diet advice was like something I had read twenty years ago. The exercise program ditto. The use of glucosamine and chondroitin was the real difference. In fact, the purpose of the book could be seen as legitimizing the use of these supplements in the treatment of osteoarthritis. People bought the book in the hope that it would help them with their pain. They also bought the book so that they would be motivated to try glucosamine and chondroitin. Many people understandably would not try the supplements without the seal of approval provided by an authoritative book like this. The question is-and it is the big question-is their program any good, or is it just another feel good pep talk fronting for another bogus approach? I was a little uncertain since the book jacket was red, white and blue, and we all know the quote about patriotism being "the last refuge of a scoundrel." So I tried glucosamine and chondroitin and stayed fairly close to their overall program. Two years have passed and although I cannot say for certain, it is my belief that the supplements are valuable. At any rate, my arthritic knee is much improved. In the follow-up book, the authors give information on other treatments. I have to say that I think they've done a positive service in writing these two books. The information about healing in general and about prevention and about the positive effects of exercise and attitude are worthwhile. The authors may have made megabucks (or maybe they didn't), but I don't feel they ripped anybody off, on the contrary. I am happy to be positive even though I still think "cure" is probably too strong a word for what their program can do, although I only have my own experience to go on. Their reports of the double blind tests that have been conducted are good, but a long way from convincing proof that glucosamine and chrondoitin and exercises can cure osteoarthritis.
Thank you for another remarkable book! March 25, 2000

I'm not sure which book I enjoyed more; The Arthritis Cure or it's follow-up, Maximizing the Arthritis Cure. Either way, Dr. Theodosakis has done it again with an inspirational and helpful book. As a nurse, I recommended his latest book to my father who suffers from osteoarthritis in his knees. He has experienced exceptional relief from taking the glucosamine and chondroitin and following the other steps of the plan. He has been able to almost stop taking ibuprofen other than when he has a bad flare up. Now he is able to garden more comfortably and with better biomechanics and he is walking the dog on a regular basis again---the dog is grateful to the good doctor as well! I'm glad that more people in the medical community are coming around to recognize the power of these supplements.

I enjoyed reading your book it was very informatiive with excellent suggestions for well being. I have one problem I hope you can help me with. Because of years of taking medications for R.A. my stomach is very sensitive to many medications such as asprin etc. I find I am unable to take chondroiten & glucosamine without stomach distress. Unfortunatley, these two supplements are a major part of the arthritis cure. I would appreciate any sugges tions.
Thank you Dr. Theo! August 24, 1998

I was involved in a motorcycle accident several years back, which had left me with severe arthritis. After reading Dr. Theo's book, my doctor and I decided to try to implement the program of nutrition and exercise, as well as the use of Chondroitin and Glucosamine, as outlined in "Maximizing the Arthritis Cure." All I can say is THANK YOU DR. THEO! The book was well written, clear and concise. Dr. Theo has a great ability to turn medical jargon into easily understood layman's terms. He provides many useful insights as well as answers to the questions I've been asking all along. I have seen many doctors, most of whom prescribed pain-killers and anti-inflammatory drugs. I was tired of getting the runaround and tired of hearing "You'll just have to live with it". Dr. Theo shows us a better way. If you or anyone you know has arthritis, you must read this book!
