Summary: Sensibly scientific
Comment: This book is sensibly scientific.
Some complentary health writers will tell you doctors are evil. This writer doesn't. He quotes doctors and acknowledges their help in writing this book. He says this book isn't about alternative medicine, because there is no alternative to medicine in a health emergency and nobody should try to do diagnosis for him- or herself. Nonetheless, he recommends chiropractors, herbalists, massage therapists, aroma therapists, homeopaths and other kinds of healing practitioners for specific diseases.
This book discusses lots of diseases that can be cured with non-medical means. Thas is, they can be treated with non-medical means once a health professional, meaning a doctor, has confirmed that you are treating the right disease. Most of the thousands of recommendations in this book are products you can use and practices you can do entirely on your own. Unlike some writers who seem to know their science, this author doesn't just recommend treatments that have stacks and stacks of scientific literature to back them up. If it has been verified that a food or mineral or vitamin or herb works, and doesn't have side effects, and isn't toxic, but medical science doesn't completely understand it yet (or hasn't even tried to understand it yet), and doesn't interfere with a medication you have chosen to take (there's a comprehensive list of interactions), this author says why not use it. Just use the product knowing this up front. He mentions healing practices that aren't in any other book but have worked in his own experience. On the other hand, the author says he wrote this book after reviewing 10,000 scientific articles. he cites thousands of them, some of them published as recently as late 2002. This writer understands and respects doctors and medical science but he obviously isn't a slave to them.
I'll admit my personal bias. I have known this author for many years. He helps many people. As for this specific book, I haven't had time to try but one of his recommendations-but I got over my cold in a day and a half by taking the right combination of food and vitamin C so if need be, I'll consult this book again. I don't think you can go wrong by buying it.

Summary: A wonderful, comprehensive book
Comment: This is the natural health book no one should be without. The author writes compassionately and comprehensively about over 300 conditions. He seems to have the attitude "If this medicine didn't work for you, here's something that will." I know we will be using this book for a long time to come.

Summary: Better than Balch
Comment: My old copy of Prescription for Nutritional Healing had literally fallen apart, and a friend ordered me this book. It's a terrific book.
The first thing you notice about this book is that it's really comprehensive. One of the health problems our family has to deal with just isn't mentioned in any other book on alternative health, and it's covered here. Whether it's seasonal affective disorder or Peyronie disease, chances are it's in this book.
Another thing you notice about this book is that the author must have had to budget for his own health care. The recommendations don't break the bank, and there aren't long lists that you have to buy everything of to cover all your health bases.
And another thing about this book is that it's written for real people who go to doctors as well as to the health store. For every condition, the writer explains what medicine can do and can't, and what herbs and minerals and foods and vitamins can do and can't, plus a list of things you can do that don't cost anything that make dealing with the condition easier.
I still may replace my old faithful Balch and Balch. But this is the first book I'd buy for our family for natural health.
