I was specifically interested in this book because of a line on the back cover that says “Do not interfere with nature.”  I am a huge believer of the fact we do have the healing power within to heal ourselves of physical and emotional manifestations that cause illness and disease.  Dr. Halanna Matthew explains that the “three greatest physicians are Nature, Time, and Patience.”

With the outbreak of the Swine Flu I found Dr. Matthew’s explanation of a virus very interesting. She claims “Viruses and bacteria are part of the ecosystem, a part of nature; they do not cause disease. They are the result of excess waste material accumulated in the organism, as a result of the manner in which one lives.”  From this I believe she is saying the immune system is compromised therefore the person is more susceptible in contracting the virus.

The other area that interested me was her support of fasting for health and cleaning of the body.  Her explanation is detailed and well supported.

Dr. Matthew states facts and backs them up with research and articles by experts.  “The Fast Way to Heal for Life” is a book for those that considering changing their lifestyle but sitting on-the-edge because of possible controversy or heresy.   She dispels any fears one may have and encourages us to take the health of our lives into our own hands.
