This is a very practical health book that takes the most basic precepts of holistic medicine (nutrition and sleep and exercise!) and tells you what the nutrients do for you, and lists each sort of medical malady and how you can help yourself by simple, inexpensive and really, not unpleasant methods to optimize your health.

This book harks back to all kinds of ancient medical traditions, from Hippocrates and Ayurveda (essentially, let food be your medicine, and take care to sleep and exercise.)

The discussion of micronutrients and vitamins and what they specifically do is excellent; one of my doctors years ago explained to me that our cells are surrounded by liquid (the interstitial fluid, to be exact) and this liquid layer surrounding each cell contains our micronutrients; vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants. These nutrients form a sort of defense system, preventing free radicals, which are damaging molecules, from entering the cells and doing damage to the DNA, for example. So by staying properly hydrated, properly nourished with quality food and good nutrients, you can keep your cells healthy and keep disease at bay. It's more complex that that--and our foods today, over-processed, full of sugar and white flour that is not supplying healthy nutrition, has to be supplemented by vitamins and minerals. Or else, as the book recommends, substitute healthier foods. The advice given here by Dr. Teitelbaum squares with what my own doctors (the ones who embrace holistics) have told me, but I think the explanation and organization of this book are much simpler and easier to understand for anyone who is trying to live a healthy life.

The discussion on sleep is important, too. It's estimated that Americans are chronically sleep deprived. The healing process of building back up the body happens while we rest, and the author reminds us that sleep is not to be underestimated as an important health component. Likewise, exercise and movement help arthritis, bone health and many other body functions--not only musculature but internal organ function as well.

This is a simple book filled with easy-to-understand information and a lot of well-organized facts about food supplements, for which I think the book is valuable on its own. But the basic tenents here (eat well, sleep well, move well) listed by what ailment is aided by and HOW, make this a very simple book to follow to improve your basic health. Highly recommended reading for anyone.

This is the best book for guiding you into healthier choices.  I love the last section that is generic foods listed so one can discover the approximate values of what we eat and a better choice if needed.  The second last section has many brand names for their nutri count......Woa! The first part of the book is very valuable to read and  understand 'a better choice for health'.

After reading this book from cover to cover, I can say that the information is so comprehensive, filled with information on every possible vitamin, mineral, grain, etc. that you may need to support and enhance your health based on whatever health condition you may be facing, or in my case, just wanting the greatest health possible.

This book had a genuine impact on my life. After reading it, there is not a chance that I will consume anything that is not organic. No more sprayed pesticides that are in the soil, that grows the plants, or antibiotic and hormone fed animals that literally destroy our health.

No matter what ailment you may have, it is covered in alphabetical order, along with a comprehensive list of what you can take, and what you should avoid, which is very helpful when one vitamin or mineral can counteract another. There are great recommendations, other resources, and this book always suggests that you consult with your health practitioner in addition to the suggestions given. It clearly states that this is not a "cure" however, I have found that since reading it and implementing the suggestions, I feel a lot more energy, and `diet' has now become a healthy eating routine, filled with nourishment.

The book is something that can only add benefit to your life, and one that you can consult at any time over the years to achieve the greatest health possible.

I really liked this book.  It was recommended to me by my sister who is always up-to-date on the latest in health and nutrition.  The explanations in the book, of somewhat complicated scientific theories and processes are well researched, quite understandable and easily translatable to everyday practice.  This books answers many previously un-answered questions that I have had for years about contradictory information coming out of the scientific/medical community.  Dr. Bruce Fife really puts it all together and gives one a very useable book on how to exist (and even thrive) in this seemingly toxic world we live in today.  I want to purchase this book for everyone I know that has had a bout with cancer and disease in any form!!!  And it is just plain good reading (f not essential) for anyone who is health-minded like me and wants to live long and prosper.
