Summary: great resource
Comment: My uncle, who has been taking vitamins for years, recommended this book to me when I asked him for a single reference that would tell me about vitamins, minerals,EFAs, as well as some of the non vitamin/mineral supplements. This book has it all and I love how it's layed out - for each item it gives a brief overview of what the vitamin etc is, lists the natural food sources which I was particularly interested in, gives the RDA, benefitial effects, and uses. It goes into detail but not so much that you feel bogged down with info. Just enough for me.

Summary: Lots of hype - little evidence
Comment: Lots of hype but little scientific evidence. Mostly based on opinion and conjecture. Better to look elsewhere......Bratman's Natural Health Bible is excellent with references. Not worth the paper it's printed on.

Summary: Biased review of nutritional supplements
Comment: Michel Murray shows a distinct lack of knowledge of pathophysiology (alteration of body function due to disease). He fails to present balanced reviews of the literature on herbal supplementation leaving out well conducted studies which failed to show the benefits promoted in his book. Often his conclusions are based on opinion instead of scientific evidence. Save your money and buy some other work of fiction. - William Joppa R.Ph., B.S.
