It is a shame that the authors did not rate the many supplements that are taken by so many, e.g. alpha lipoic acid.
What they have evaluated is most helpful however.

Format:Paperback
This is a well put together and easy to access guide to substances and techniques used outside the usual confines of orthodx western medicine. The critique is written from the perspective of testing these from a Western Scientific point of view and is a valuable and authorative summary of this inforamtion. Of course there carries with that a presumption that it is reasoanble to test inforamtion based on a belief system that rejects Western Orthodoxy or at least recognises its limitations by utilising the techniques of Western Orthodoxy. That's almost bound to come up with some negative comment. But that will always be a difficulty in reviewing such subject matter and is largely insurmountable, and indeed this seems to beat least implicitly recognised by the authors. So it's good just to state the premises and work from there, and this book does a rigorous job of exactly that.
