I heard about this Guy (Kevin Trudeau) and this book (The Weight Loss Cure: They Don’t Want You to Know About) 4 years ago. Many dietitians supported it. Many of course also bashed it. None the less, the book sold millions of copies and became a New York Times Best Seller. If I had the $25 I would have bought it. In the infomercial Kevin describes who “they” are and why these secrets of weight loss have not previously been exposed. Once Kevin went on to explain the circumstances and give his background, I pretty much was glued to the tv. I wanted to believe what he said because it was making so much sense. But I also didn’t want to be taken advantage of by some sleazy orator who just happened to have a good sales pitch. I decided to keep listening and afterwards I did some research on Kevin Trudeau, his books, and his federal court case. In this blog post, I will give detailed information on Kevin, his controversial book, his Federal court case, his infomercial transcript and what my opinion of it all is. This is going to be long post; so sit back, grab a snack, and listen carefully. This post will not be another congratulation or “hateration” article. I intend to provide facts to the best of my knowledge. This subject is very important to me personally because many of the things Kevin has been indicted for have been called “false advertising,” yet they are medical conditions I personally have and have cured! So somebody is lying, and I don’t think it’s Kevin; especially on a few key subjects. This all goes deeper than Kevin, his book, and his court case. Everyone in the world needs to hear about this, especially those who are weight conscious. Infomercial Analysis: At the start of Kevin’s Infomercial, the interviewer immediately got down to business and asked Kevin the coveted question… Who are “They.” His response was, “They” in this case are really several government agencies—U.S. government agencies—and other agencies around the world, and the drug industry primarily, but also it involves the food industry. There are certain groups, including government agencies, as well as the food industry, the drug industry, and even some news and television and newspaper organizations that don’t want people to know about cures for diseases that are all natural because people can’t make money on all-natural cures - My Thoughts: They “don’t want people to know about cures for diseases that are all natural because people can’t make money on all-natural cures. There are many people that have tried to contest by saying that “natural cures and remedies make mega-bucks.” Well, take Hoodia for example. It was a big rave last summer as an “all-natural-weight loss cure.” It grew strong popularity and made mega-money, but then the pharmaceutical companies release claims that Hoodia can be lethal. It’s funny how in a matter of months the “pharma’s” shut down Hoodia but it took almost five years just to get a federal indictment to test Fen Phen (pharmaceutical grade speed (narcotic) and people were already dying from it! And there was proof that Fen Phen was the cause. So what’s the bottom line: The bottom line is; Pharmaceutical companies are backed by millions of dollars in corporate lobbyist money and they have the power to monopolize the diet supplement market place, and do so by shutting down private “natural cure” companies. If the public found out there was “natural remedies” for health problems of any kind, the billion dollar pharmaceutical companies will crumble. Kevin later mentions this during his interview. Next Kevin begins to list natural cures for some of the most wide-spread diseases. “There are in fact cures for cancer. There are cures for diabetes. There are cures for chronic fatigue syndrome. There are cures—all-natural cures—for attention deficit disorder, migraine headaches. . . Interviewer says, “Now wait a second. Attention Deficit Disorder. Now how can that be lumped in with all of these physical maladies? Kevin replies, “Well, when you look at . . . the way the system works today, you have the Food and Drug
