The #2 best selling book in the country, right after Harry Potter...

[KurtNYC]

He sold 1.5 million copies in July (at $30). You gotta love the tin-foil title -- for more on why 'they' don't want you to know about his 'cures' see below.

Trudeau honed his pitchman skills promoting a series of infomercial products over two decades such as Dr. Callahan's Addiction Breaking System, Eden's Secret Nature's Purifying Product, the Sable Hair Farming System, the Mega Memory System, Biotape and Coral Calcium Supreme, a daily vitamin supplement.
...
Trudeau doesn't shy away from controversy. He's suing the FTC over a press release detailing terms of last year's 2004 settlement. And he's frank about a two-year prison term for a conviction in 1991 on credit-card fraud. A federal indictment accused him of stealing more than $128,600, using credit cards from those who had bought his products. "I made a mistake in my 20s," he says. "So what?"

Okay so why don't THEY want you to know? Because it is 'baloney':

In the book, Trudeau also advises readers to beware of psychiatry, psychology, microwave ovens and electric tumble dryers. He promotes the health benefits of wearing white, sleeping on magnetic mattress pads and products that "neutralize electromagnetic chaos" caused by satellites, cell phones and remote controls.

Stephen Barrett, a retired psychiatrist from Allentown, Pa., who operates Quackwatch.org, has one word to describe that advice:

"Rubbish."

1. I'm surprised he hasn't been locked up...again.

He hocks just about every product you can imagine. Even tried his hand at starting a network marketing company.

Geez. Late at night, he's on at least 3 cable stations at once, hocking his stupid book.
:puke: What a crook.
