Publisher's Synopsis
Almost 75 percent of your health and life expectancy is based on lifestyle, environment and nutrition. Yet even if you follow a healthy diet, you are probably not getting all the nutrients you need to prevent disease. Why? There are many reasons, ranging from the mineral-depleted soils in which our foods are grown, to medications that rob the body of various vitamins and minerals. What, then, is the answer? Now available in a fully revised edition that reflects the latest research and science-based studies, WHAT YOU MUST KNOW ABOUT VITAMINS, MINERALS, HERBS AND SO MUCH MORE explains how you can restore and maintain health through the wise use of nutrients. Part One of this easy-to-use guide presents the individual nutrients necessary for good health. Part Two offers personalised nutritional programmes for people with a wide variety of health concerns. People without prior medical problems can look to Part Three for their supplementation plans. Whether you are trying to overcome a medical condition or you simply want to preserve good health, this new Second Edition can guide you in making the best dietary and supplement choices for you and your family.
