5.0 out of 5 stars Simply Superb!, 11 Mar 2006
This review is from: Radiant Health (Hardcover)
Ron Teeguarden's love of herbs simply shines through in this book. As a student of herbology I have many books on this subject but this is one of the main ones I return to again and again as there is in-depth knowledge on the vast majority of Chinese Herbs and their usages which are described in simple, easy-to-understand language. The dustjacket and colour of the books itself (beautiful light turquoise) are an added bonus to the overall good feel of this book. Totally recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Read!!, 29 Jan 2010
By 
Hi,
If you are like me and are curious as to why despite all our apparent medical 'advances' in the 21st century society today seems sicker and has more disese than ever before do not hesitate to order this book.I believe without being too dramatic this book has many of the answers to human ill health.I myself as i type this review have been taking the chinese tonic herbs mentioned by Ron in Radiant health for little over a month now and truly am starting to feel fantastic,just like the book explains.Radiant Health is what the chinese call 'Health without danger'.I myself have a diploma in human nutrition but am sorry to say none of the information in this book was even touched upon during my studies,the chinese tonic herbs,how powerful they are,the three treasures system etc.You owe it to yourself if you have got this far with your curiosity to read the book and undertake a course of the tonic herbs,i was the biggest sceptic you could ever want to be,but not any more!!
Thank you Ron Teeguarden for this book and the wonderful herbs which are changing my perception of this life in positive and magical ways!!

5.0 out of 5 stars All encompassing - great for someone seeking real knowledge, 23 Sep 1999
By Rebecca Adams "massage therapist" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Radiant Health (Hardcover)
This is the third book by Ron Teeguarden that I've read and he just keeps getting better. It is laid out in a logical categorical order, which makes it very easy to compare different herbs. Ron has rated the herbs with a star rating that indicates how many treasures each herb will affect. Then he goes on to rate actual patent tonic formulas. It is a wonderful reference book, something you will refer to again and again for information and reinforcement, but it is written in very down to earth layman's language. It has an incredible amount of information, even down to some chemical descriptions and cellular activity, but if you aren't interested in going that deep, the descriptions are arranged so that you can skip whatever you don't want to read and go straight to the pertinent parts. Of all the books on Chinese herbology that I have, this one is quickly becoming my favorite. It's one of those rare books that is good to start with, and it is good to finish out a collection with also.

2.0 out of 5 stars Incomplete information, 17 Feb 2004
By Rick Johnson "rickyrickjohnson" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Radiant Health: The Ancient Wisdom of the Chinese Tonic Herbs (Hardcover)
This book is a great description of what could be done, but the tools to do it are not herein. I was hoping this book was going to have more than just herb descriptions, alas it does not.
Some things that the Author forgot and which seem important: dosage for individual herbs (this is pretty important), chinese name of herbs (neither the pin-yin nor the symbol are given). And, in the formulas section (which was the main reason I bought the book) the formulas just list the herbs and not their proportions! WHAT!?! How unhelpful.
To know that herbs are in a formula is great, but it is not a formula without the proporation of ingredients. Although this book has great descriptions of the herbs and their uses, it lacks the implementational aspects which are critical to using the herbs! The truth is: this book is a marketing tool for the Author's herbal supplement line. Be careful...

5.0 out of 5 stars Very readable and informative presentation of Chinese herbs, 6 Sep 1998
By monson@fda.net - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Radiant Health (Hardcover)
Ron Teeguarden is clearly an expert on Chinese herbal remedies. He presents clearly the philosophy and benefits of using various ancient herbal tonics. It makes you want to begin using them right away. The problem, it seems, is it's not easy to find reputable suppliers with dependable high quality herbs.But that's key as the author points out which makes one suspect that one of the author's purposes in writing the book was to promote his own products. Well even if that's so, it's a blessing from my standpoint to have these magical tonics available from a reputable supplier.I'm stocking up!!!
