Book of Alternative Medicine

A reliable source of alternative medicine.Easy to read, well organized , I have used as a resource in my medical practice

I found so many foods that act as alternative medication in lowering cholesterol and LDL. They also reviewed many foods that were false myths. I would highly recommend this book for people that are looking to use alternative medications along with the medications that their Doctor has ordered. My Cardiolgist even recommended two of the medications in this book. They also have the research to back-up their findings!!

This is a very nice book -- helpful information and beautifully illustrated. However, I wish I'd noticed the 2010 pub date when I purchased it last year. There's a lot of new alternative medicine info and supplements that are not included in this edition, and some of the info has changed, thanks to newer research. It's a good place to start, but no longer definitive. My doctor suggested it -- but I wish there were an updated/revised edition.

Would have liked more information on specificate alternatives.

there is a lot of really informative detail in the book. I was delighted with my purchase. And, a good reference book instead of trying to find a creditable source on the internet.
