I think you can only take what you want out of certain books and then put all of that info together in a way that works for you. however, when i was starting home cooking i found it to be agreat source of info for a beginner. I found the info at the begining on commercial food very interesting and the part in the back on what to do with certain health situations. |
Completely agree. Its a good starter book. He says some ridiculous things - esp. about cats but I think its a great overall eye opener and resource. I also suppose I have faith that anyone who cares enough to pick up a book on natural pet care will do enough research to sift through the B - perhaps I am having too much faith
My homeopath trained with Dr. Pitcairin and I have to admit, when I learned that I was skeptical of him, which kept me from totally devoting myself to homeopathy - I favor a middle of the road approach, towards holistic - but I was still able to get a lot out of homeopathy for the fur kids, I just didn't go all the way...
I am also not a homecooker and so I was more interested in the general message of the book. I wouldn't use recipes out of his book! Vegetarian cats? Come on!!
Its like any book someone is to buy about health, written by a doctor, some things are good and some are WACKY! I still like it and use it, I just enjoy reading about dogs & health!!
