While this book has some helpful information in it, Ingels's tone and approach didn't resonate with me.

He first says that Lyme tests are notoriously unreliable, missing lab-cultured Lyme a good portion of the time, even, and then declares that it's still important to get these tests done anyway.

He advocates a trial-and-error approach, which is understandable due to the complicated nature of Lyme, but he also tends to assume that we all have unlimited (or nearly unlimited) resources with which to embrace this approach.

He also throws around medical jargon without ever defining certain terms, which is always frustrating.

A huge portion of the book is a recipe section... none of the recipes seemed very appetizing, and the same ingredients were used over and over. I feel like readers would have been better off if Ingels had simply recommended a couple of cookbooks that fit his criteria rather than trying to come up with his own.

I just didn't feel like this book had much more information than I've seen in other places, and it's a little too repetitive and wordy for me to recommend that anyone else invest their time in it. ( )
