Fourth Printed Edition: Updated June, 2016. The continuing story of how one man reversed wet macular degeneration in eleven weeks. This update includes follow-up results of a Fluorescein Angiography scan (with dye) that showed no bleeding in either eye. The author's Ophthalmologist said that the wet macular degeneration was completely reversed and that both eyes were very healthy. This has been accomplished without any medical drugs. "John Crittenden is one of those rare clients who goes way above and beyond the support and encouragement he receives and clearly doesn't take no for an answer. His intuitive nature and persistence, along with a passion to learn and the ability to listen, have allowed him to defy all odds outlined by conventional medicine. BLIND FAITH is a true story of encouragement, empowerment and hope. I encourage everyone with a chronic disease, or anyone that cares for someone suffering from a chronic disease, to understand that John's case outlines something greater than macular degeneration; this approach can be applied to any chronic disease state." Dr. Brian Davies, BSc, ND Comparison with current Anti-VEGF Injections published results: Avastin - 9.7 letters gained (in 52 weeks) Lucentis - 11.2 letters gained (in 52 weeks) Eylea - 13.3 letters gained (in 52 weeks) Crittenden Protocol - 35 letters gained (in 11 weeks) Crittenden Protocol - 50 letters gained (on August 28, 2015) If the author can do this then perhaps you can too. He is not writing about something he read or was taught in medical school. He is passionately writing about what he actually did and explains the full details of the protocol he developed and used. Like many of you he was told by his Ophthalmologist that there was no cure. This has been proven to be wrong. Now his Ophthalmologist (who is a professor and current head of the Retina Division at the University of British Columbia), says he has never seen this kind of regeneration before and told him to "keep doing what you're doing, you may change a lot of our minds." What You Will Learn From This Book 1. How the author reversed macular degeneration with his own naturopathic protocol in eleven weeks with continual monitoring by his Ophthalmologist. 2. How the author connected the dots between several fields of science to develop his food-based protocol. 3. Full details of his protocol and how it may be personalized for others by a Naturopathic Doctor. 4. More than 200 printed pages and more than 90 links to the science for those who want to do their own research. 5. How our bodies are creating new cells all the time, why this does not cure disease for many people, and what we can do to change that. Much, much more... BLIND FAITH is the true story of how one man discovered the answer to reversing wet macular degeneration thru diet and nutrition alone. The results are proven and cannot be challenged.

Hallucinations, for most people, imply madness. But there are many different types of non-psychotic hallucination caused by various illnesses or injuries, by intoxication--even, for many people, by falling sleep. From the elementary geometrical shapes that we see when we rub our eyes to the complex swirls and blind spots and zigzags of a visual migraine, hallucination takes many forms. At a higher level, hallucinations associated with the altered states of consciousness that may come with sensory deprivation or certain brain disorders can lead to religious epiphanies or conversions. Drawing on a wealth of clinical examples from his own patients as well as historical and literary descriptions, Oliver Sacks investigates the fundamental differences and similarities of these many sorts of hallucinations, what they say about the organization and structure of our brains, how they have influenced every culture's folklore and art, and why the potential for hallucination is present in us all.
