 Her daily recommendations are a little scary... November 4, 2009
Andrea Alabastro (Palo Alto, Ca)
The daily intake she recommends for many vitamins/minerals are a little high for my comfort; some easily exceed the Upper Intake Limit by the FDA and other sources I've researched. I started taking Zinc to boost my immune system, and after looking at recommended daily allowances of ZInc in other sources, I've decided to decrease my intake of it to every other day.
That being said, she recommends a lot of great vitamin/herbal supplements that I had never heard of, which I love. The "Conditions" section is huge and is a great reference for almost any disorder. I do, however, find it impractical for someone to take the 30 different pills she recommends for any given ailment every day...
In sum, I dont regret buying the book (herbal/nutritional healing is underestimated/ignored in our modern society) and will use it as a reference, but not a nutritional bible.
book condition October 19, 2009
Levy Gilmor
the book was listed as new, it was not what i expected. It should have been listed as fair.
 Whew, what a Book! October 10, 2009
Trosh (Salem, OR)
Not much I can add to the good qualities others have given. It is a huge, exhausive and definitive book. No, every detail can't be accurate. I don't know any nutritional book that is. Accuracy, current research and distorted research are all hard to keep track of. However, this has done a very good job of it! If it is too much, the Natural Health Bible is a very good,easier alternative to use. Thumbs up.

Great for healthcare providers too! Gives you everything from dosages to contraindications! Very well organized! Best I've seen thus far!
Fantastic Reference October 3, 2009
A. Engel (NY)
I have just updated my version of the "Prescriptions for Nutrituional Healing" to this 4th addition and I am so happy with it! This series has been my 'health bible' for years! And since my children have grown up they each have a copy also......great reference for so many health questions!!
