Book Review of "The Healing Code"

When asked to read and review The Healing Code by Dr. Alexander Loyd and Dr. Ben Johnson, I was intrigued. The book cover reads “6 Minutes to Heal the Source of Your Health, Success or Relationship Issue.” I am like everyone else – looking for the “quick fix” so I told the publisher to send me a copy and eagerly watched the mail for the book.


Loyd and Johnson are Christian physicians who have written a book based on scientific research. In Part One of the book, the authors discuss the “Seven Secrets to Life, Health and Prosperity.” Part Two is “The Solutions to Healing Virtually Any Health, Relationship or Success Issue.” The basic premise is that all illnesses are caused by stress and all stress is caused by issues of the heart. Resolve the issues of the heart and relieve the stress by using the healing codes and your illness, whatever it may be, will be healed. It’s not quite that simple and the book gives many more details about the process.

Not only do Loyd and Johnson back up their theory with research, but they also include statements from a number of people who have gone through this process and testify of their healing. They also firmly state that the healing codes are not to replace any medical treatment the participant may be taking, and they include a one-page disclaimer and informed consent.

I found this book to be challenging. The authors have mixed Christian beliefs with medical and scientific research and facts and I have yet to decide whether or not I agree with their findings. In all fairness, I have not performed the “healing codes.”

If you are interested in this type of study, this book is for you. Even if you’re not, but you are looking for a solution to your health issues, this book may be for you. You be the judge.
