Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Many of us suffer from some kind of ailment that can cause undesirable results on our everyday lives. So what is the best way to beat this problem? The most obvious thing to do is to go to the doctor's and get some medication but more often than not side effects from drugs can create even less desirable repercussions. But there is more than one choice of action and it's easy to find out about and put into use. One way may well be to pick up a copy of Dr Atkins' Vita-Nutrient Solution.

The author defines vita-nutrients as "all vitamins, minerals and amino acids and all other sources of nourishment that can safely and effectively replace many of the drugs and evasive procedures medicine imposes on us." In other words long standing scientific research has now placed an important emphasis on the use of nutrients as a cure for major and minor diseases.

Dr Atkins has been involved in the field of complementary medicine for over three decades. The main turning point in his career, he explains, was when he went on a weight- reducing diet which he had read about in the journal of the American Medical Association (AMA). He was put on a low-carbohydrate diet with vitamins and minerals, which aided weight loss and increased energy. This diet was successful and didn't leave him feeling hungry, so he decided to publish details of it in his previous book Dr Atkins' New Diet Revolution.

This was at a time when the AMA were promoting a high carbohydrate diet for weight loss and did not accept Dr Atkins' methods. They actually publicly ridiculed his ideas and implied that he was actually lying about patients losing weight. But Dr Atkins became more involved in the study of nutritional therapy and learned how consistently people benefited from this type of treatment and this is where this new book comes in. Dr Atkins encourages people to read his book but then take their requests for nutritional treatment to their regular GPs. Selected case studies emphasise the success of his methods without his subjects suffering side effects.

Readers wishing to further their knowledge of nutrition as an alternative to medicine could also check out Neal Barnard's Foods that Fight Pain. --Louise Coyle

5.0 out of 5 stars This is a real contribution to humanity, 16 Jul 1998
By A Customer
Two years ago, I followed the Atkins' diet and easily lost 30 pounds, increased my energy level, lowered my LDL cholesterol and boosted my HDLs. I've had no trouble staying on the diet, and my health and stamina keep improving. Now Atkins gives us something even better: a well- documented, easy-to-use guide to using vitamins, minerals and other nutrients as the "treatment of choice" to overcome numerous conditions without the side-effects of drugs. Already, I followed his advice for zinc to completely clear up my acne in 5 days, and carnitine and chromium to further improve energy and mental outlook. This book and the "complementary medicine" movement may revolutionize health care in the United States!

5.0 out of 5 stars Invaluable addition to my library, 2 May 2009
By Barbara Curtis - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Actually this is the second copy of this book that I have purchased - it is sooooooo brilliant and has helped me in my quest to recover from mercury poisoning caused by mercury leaking from my amalgam fillings. An invaluable addition to anyone's health library. Highly recommended.
