Valuable reference work,

This review is from: Vitamins and Mineral Handbook: How to Get the Nutrients Your Body Needs (Paperback)
This book provides practical advice on the most effective nutrients to prevent or alleviate ailments, their best food sources and the daily nutritional needs. It also explains how vitamins and minerals work in the body and the symptoms of their deficiency.The introduction explains in detail how they work, how to maintain optimum health, the particular nutrients that various groups are most likely to need, healthy eating and the ins and outs of taking supplements. The next section deals with individual Essential Nutrients under the headings of how it functions, what ailments it can remedy, the deficiency symptoms of that nutrient, vital food sources and the recommended daily allowance. Vitamins and minerals from Vit A to Zinc are covered here. There are also short sections on other supplements like Amino Acids, Co-Enzyme Q10, Acidophilus, Bioflavonoids, Boron and various herbs. Then follows an A - Z of symptoms and their remedies, from acne and allergies to varicose veins. It recommends which vitamins, minerals and other nutrients to use or to avoid for every particular symptom. This very valuable reference work concludes with a glossary and index. I recommend it as a reliable and easy-to-use guide to help the reader combat ailments and maintain health and balance.

This review is from: Vitamins and Mineral Handbook: How to Get the Nutrients Your Body Needs (Paperback)
I agree with the first review. The information in the book is presented in relatively simple English and is easily accessible. Besides all the advantages of the book that are mentioned in the first review, the book is made of good quality paper and the pages are in full colour. I personally feel this is a must-have book.
