3 out of 5 stars Useful, but...   October 5, 2004
 7 out of 9 found this review helpful

This is a good book to have as part of a collection, but I certainly don't recommend it on its own, as it tends to suggest that fairly low dosages are as high as should be looked into. I do think it's a useful guide for understanding a lot of nutritional supplements, but would recommend it in companionship with the superb "Health Defence" by Paul Clayton and "Digestive Wellness" by Elizabeth Lipski. A useful reference tool.


5 out of 5 stars The most thorough and accessible guide I've seen yet   October 11, 2000
 13 out of 13 found this review helpful

This book not only tells you what various nutrients do and where to find them, it reviews recent scientific research into a whole range of nutritional therapies with a critical view. For anyone looking to improve their health naturally, I would highly recommend this easy-to-read book.


5 out of 5 stars information packed and comprehensive   February 1, 1999
 11 out of 11 found this review helpful

During this time of the natural healing explosion it is helpful to have a tool which keeps you from drowning in all the information. Another helpful aspect of the book is the reference section composed of an extensive bibliography, relevant phone numbers and addresses, as well as a painstakingly detailed index of conditions and pages which apply. Worth every penny you'll find youself referring to it when ever necessary and feeling empowered to make informed decisions about your health.


5 out of 5 stars Comprehensive and Understandable   October 16, 1997

One of the few books I have found that did not make me feel as though I was do something wrong if I did not follow the author's regimen. Nor does the author dismiss physicians in the fashion that other non-traditional authors seem wont to do. Very comprehensive in its approach to treatment of symptoms and descriptions of vitamins, minerals, et al. And best of all, the author actually includes recommended dosages. A great resource.


5 out of 5 stars This is essential for those interesting in improving health   June 21, 1997

This is an excellent reference book on vitamins and other nutritional supplements and a "must have" for those interested in learning more about improving their health naturally. It is very well laid out and chock-a-block full of useful information on the dosage, available forms and reasons why each supplement is beneficial. It makes me more confident when I'm shopping for supplements and I'm able to avoid making mistakes buying "snake oil" or empty supplements that have little nutritional value. Thank you Dr. Murray.
