Book Synopsis
Robert Ivker's no-nonsense style of holistic treatment--dubbed the Sinus Survival Program--should be a refreshing blast of non-pollinated air to chronic allergy and asthma sufferers. He prescribes an intensive initial four-to-six week period of strictly regimented diet, sleep, and exercise, and recommends the use of air cleaners, humidifiers, saline nasal spray, and a vitamin regime. It's a serious, thorough regimen, but recommended for chronic sufferers who have not been able to find help elsewhere. His physical and environmental health recommendations are only part of the solution; holistic healing depends on self-awareness. Ivker stresses the importance of getting deeply in tune with oneself in order to accurately discern what environments, foods, seasons, and situations are triggering the problems, and to find the strength to take action and permanently remove them from one's life. This book's clear instructions, charts, and guidelines should help restore even the most aggrieved sufferer back to health.

Publisher Note -
Ninety-two million Americans - more than one out of three - suffer from at least one of the four most common chronic respiratory diseases: sinusitus, allergies, bronchitis, and asthma. Most of them have been told they'll have to learn to live with it. That is no longer the only available option. In this revised and expanded edition of his best-selling self-help guide, Dr. Robert Ivker offers readers the most current medical advice for the holistic healing and prevention of these common respiratory conditions. His recommendations range from practical diagnostic tips to a variety of conventional and holistic treatments and preventive measures. With new chapters on the influence of candida and on sufferers' most frequently asked questions, and updated information throughout, Sinus Survival affirms that sinus and respiratory ailments easily lend themselves to self-healing. It sets forth a practical plan for people with sinus and respiratory disease to lead healthy lives - even in an increasingly unhealthy environment.
