5.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive, 7 Nov 2008
This review is from: Prescription for Nutritional Healing (Prescription for Nutritional Healing: A Practical A-To-Z Reference to Drug-Free Remedies) (Paperback)
With over five million copies sold, this book is one of the most read texts on nutritional health. I say "text" because it measures in at a good inch and three-quarters thick. Written by a certified nutritionist and a bona-fide MD, it is neatly divided up into three parts.

Part I, a quarter-inch thick discusses the basic principles of health and nutrition. This section lists and explains the various kinds of nutrients and food supplements.

Part II, by far the biggest section of the book measuring in at an inch and a quarter, provides the reader with an A-Z listing of many common disorders (such as backache or diabetes) and what you can do about them from a nutritional point of view.

The book ends with Part III, the last quarter-inch of the book, which is devoted to traditional therapies and conventional treatments that can be used along with a nutritional support. Here you'll find info on treatments such as chiropractic, massage therapy, color therapy, and so on.

I have to say, I was pretty impressed with the amount of info contained in this book and I can definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for a good nutritional reference book to put on their shelf when questions arise. Additionally, is also might give readers ideas of other types of therapies they could try for various medical problems. Other health titles I can recommend also include The 5-Minute Plantar Fasciitis Solution for people who have trouble with chronic plantar fasciitis.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's the best alternative health care book I have!, 29 Mar 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Prescription for Nutritional Healing: A Practical A-Z Reference to Drug-free Remedies Using Vitamins, Minerals, Herbs and Food Supplements (Prescription for Nutritional Healing, 2nd ed) (Paperback)
I purchased this book approx. 2 years ago. I became very interested in alternative health after my daughter had bouts of sickness that was not helped via medical doctors and specialists but was helped alternatively. I since have been diagnosed with a chronic disease and read the ideas that this book had. I also saw an alternative health care doctor. He put me on various things. When I went to refer back to my book, the items he prescribed were almost the same as what was in my book. I am constantly referring to it for one thing or another and have recommended it highly. My sister, who is a nurse, also went out and bought the book and has found it very informative and helpful. The book is excellent!!!!!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The recommendations are wonderful!, 4 Aug 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Prescription for Nutritional Healing: A Practical A-Z Reference to Drug-free Remedies Using Vitamins, Minerals, Herbs and Food Supplements (Prescription for Nutritional Healing, 2nd ed) (Paperback)
I have not had to go to the doctor to get my usual prescription for "Flonase" since we purchased the air purifier recommended on pages 112, 298 , and 254. It runs 24 hours a day, everyday! And as an added BONUS, my husband doesn't snore as much and we got rid of the musty smell and mold in the old Church that we remodeled into our home. Fantastic machine and all the others remedies are working for other family members also! Great book! Everyone needs one!
