The Chronic Book

Autoimmune and chronic illnesses are a global crisis, with an estimated 50 million sufferers in the US alone. In our world of modern medicine that has been able to drastically reduce both disability and mortality for so many diseases—from heart disease, stroke, HIV, and even cancer—what is fueling this seemingly unstoppable twenty-first century pandemic?

In this eye-opening, provocative book, Steven Phillips, MD, and his former patient, singer/songwriter Dana Parish, take on the medical establishment. Backed by a trove of published data, Chronic reveals striking evidence that a broad range of microbes cause a variety of recurrent conditions and autoimmune diseases. Chronic delves into the history and science behind common infections that are difficult to diagnose and treat, debunks widely held beliefs by doctors and patients alike, reveals how medicine got the facts patently wrong, and provides solutions that empower readers to get their lives back.

“This book shines an alarming light on emerging infections that cause chronic illnesses. Brimming with bulletproof science, Chronic is an insightful clarion call for more attention to this plague of the 21st century.”

Sanjay Gupta, MD
