Good but not great.,
By A Customer
This review is from: A-Z Guide to drug-herb-vitamin interactions: how to improve your health and avoid problems when using common medications and natural supplements together (Paperback)
There's a lot of good information in this book but I would not recommend it as a reference.First of all, it isn't totable: it's format makes it a clunker. It's 8 1/2 by 11" and its page format is such that the book could have been printed with half the paper. The added appendices are pretty useless considering the main A to Z section entries pretty much tell you exactly the same thing. Second of all, the formatting is inconsistent; adding question to your inquiry. Did they make this entry as complete as they did that one? I very much prefer Meletis/Jacobs' and Brinker's books to this one. For intuitiveness and extensive cross-referencing, Meletis/Jacobs' wins hands down.

This review is from: A-Z Guide to Drug-Herb-Vitamin Interactions Revised and Expanded 2nd Edition: Improve Your Health and Avoid Side Effects When Using Common Medications and Natural Supplements Together (Paperback)
I use this book as a reference, based on a reading list that I obtained from my nutrition school. The book includes "references" to research articles, but you have to go online to look up the references. The Web site that contains the references appears to be inactive ([...]). This doesn't do much to support the credibility of the recommendations.

By Dr. Jim Burdine (Allentown, PA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A-Z Guide to drug-herb-vitamin interactions: how to improve your health and avoid problems when using common medications and natural supplements together (Paperback)
The authors of this book have made a significant contribution to the resources available for today's health consumer. By providing this current, well-organized and useful "guide" they are helping those of us trying to protect or improve our own health, and those of us facilitating others in doing that, tremendously! Their research is thorough and and unbiased - I highly recommend it.
