I have loved this book for many years and it has proven very helpful over the years. I updated my older book with this one and find it just as help as the older version. I would highly recommend this book to anyone.

I have used the several times updated "Prescription for Nutritional Healing" for at least the last 15 years. Each time I purchase an updated edition, the old one was passed on to a friend, family member or acquaintance who was waiting anxiously for it. This purchase was made as a gift for a neice. It is a useful guide that comprehensively explains the extremely complex functions of our body in metabolizing our foods and other nutritional sources. All options for nutritional health and healing take into consideration that one should never disregard the use of conventional medications. Drug interaction and health hazards with foods and nutritional and herbal supplements are covered. I have found it useful in caring for a brother with a severe case of diabetes, caring for myself in two years of dealing with cancer and the neative effects of necessary medication, and caring for my family. Additionally, I used this book extensively, in conjunction with a Merck Veterinary Manual, for the 15 years I was involved in animal rescue. In both human and non-human useage it has served an excellent guide when used with dicretion and judgement. I have found no other publication that is as comprehensive and easy to use, i highly recommend it.Read full review
It’s the BIBLE of natural health along with alternative & preventative therapies. I purchased the 2010 addition because our original (1st edition – now over 20 years old) became so tattered and realizing how things do change we wanted to be up-to-date. Has an easy A-Z reference for illnesses (extremely thorough). The drug free remedies using vitamins, minerals, herbs & food supplements can’t be beat. The message in the book has more relevance today than ever… eating of fresh foods, avoiding processed foods plus the ones that are high in saturated fat. In addition you must optimize your intake of essential nutrients with the right supplements too. Highly recommend!
I been using the third edition for at least four or five years now. I grab that book first then go to the other four books, that l have, to see what they say. I buy herbs and put them in capsules for all kind of things that will improve my body, health and mind. I also help people with their problem from time to time with a very big warning that taking more of what l tell them to take is not better it can land them in the hospital. I let them know that it took you years to get to where they are now and taking these herbs is not a magic pill therefor it may take weeks, months or even years to over come that problem. What l like about using herbs is that it only works on one primary thing at a time without any side effects that you sometimes get from taking store bought medicines. Keep in mine that many countries use herbs instead of medicines that we use.Read full review
