This edition continues the high standards set by its forebears, offering sound, down-to-earth advice on health and nutrition in an easygoing style.

They call on an increasing body of scientific evidence to back their arguments that vitamin and mineral supplements can also be effective tools in disease prevention and cure. Remedies such as herbal medicine and alternative treatments including homeopathy are also explored. Tables and charts give accurate nutrition data on most common foods
