About a year ago I bought this book & I can honestly say it's one of my most used books. It's very scientific & yet you don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure out what it is saying. The first part of the book deals with different disorders such as ADHD, Diabetes, Hepatitis, Arthritis, & much more. Under the different disorders it gives different examples of what people have tried to treat them with. Then it proceeds to different scientific tests that either proves or disproves the treatment.
The second part of the book deals with herbs & their therapeutic uses. Again here different uses & tests are provided for each herb. This book also discussed dosage recommendations, safety issues, drug interactions, & great references to other material. Overall this is a very useful book. The copy that I purchased contains over 1,000 pages & it covers everything from migraine headaches to the various vitamins. I recommend this book not only to the med student but to the average person just wanting useful & real information about herbs and their therapeutic uses.

After repeated attempts, I learned diets do not work. Change in lifestyle does. This book gives useful information to optimize diet for life.

A complete easy to understand review of the vitamins and supplements citing solid scientific evidence is presented without any bias. To the best of my knowledge, it is the first time that a book on this subject matter has been written from an objective point of view. The author writes clearly with a style that shows that scientific matters can be expressed in a language that can be understood by people of every walk of life. I also recommend the book to those individuals who want to learn to write concisely and clearly.

Once again Carl Germano brings us an excellent book filled with useful information and easy to follow ideas, nutrition suggestions, and encouragement. If you have not read any of his other books , run to your PC and check Amazon's other selections.

I have had this book for years now and it is worth it's price just for one of it's bits of knowledge....the use of honey for burns. There is much other great info in here too, but that is the one that most stands out in my mind. I have used it every time I've gotten a burn and am very thankful that this information has been provided to me by Dr. Heinerman.
All I can say is, "Buy this book!!". It's a keeper!!
