Great Resource!
This book is definitely a good catch. Very informative in alternatives to natural remedies and in explaining the symptoms of each. Very good book.

Awesome Info!
I've always leaned toward natural cures and remedies since watching three family members die/dying of cancer, wasting away to nothing and being tortured through chemo and radiation.
This book has:
Symptoms
Other diseases/conditions that can mimic the same prognosis
Diet recommendations (Foods to avoid, Foods that make condition worse, Foods that soothe/heal)
Herbal Remedies
Holistic Remedies
Aromatherapy Suggestions
Reflexology Points/Suggestions
Acupuncture Points/Suggestions
Case Studies/Surveys
Causes and Solutions
I borrowed this book to my neighbor who has frequent bouts of Gall/Kindey stones and had multiple surgeries. He changed his diet to the recommended suggestions and is taking Cranberry extract and other ideas from the book and is doing great now!
The book tells you what your Doctors don't!

very usefull resource
This book contains a lot of useful information as far as basic nutrition provided in a format that is easy to access and comprehend. It is not going to give you a quick fix or magic cure, but instead reinforces the concept of treating the whole body nutritionally to attain a balance. I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in health and nutrition and would like a reference tool.

Excellent fast service. Informative book.
This book was highly recommended to students by a certified Nutritional Consultant staff member who works at The Global College of Natural Medicine, CA. where I am attending an online 12 month Nutritional Consultant course. He uses this book regularly and so do the students. If you want good information, whether you're in private practice or an individual, this is the book.
