I love this book, it has great advice, warnings and cites good references. It is easily readable by anyone and goes into summary lists of warning and possible drug interactions.
At what this book is selling for, it’s very cheap insurance for optimum health. While it is a bit out of date, it still has enough good meat to be very worthwhile.

I have owned the Natural Health Bible for several years and find it to be a reliable source for information regarding herbs, vitamins and supplements. Always answers my questions and keeps me informed.

A good reference book and one of the few I recommend to pet owners who want to learn about natural health care for themselves. This is the text I used and adapted for my own award-winning book. Super job!

This book has saved me hundreds of dollars, since I always cross-check claims by commercial companies that sell complementary products–and who usually provide artfully deceptive ways to make it appear as though vitamins, herbs, and other supplements are the “answer” to everything from arthritis to herpes zoster. Clearly presented with an impartial and reasoned conclusion regarding the efficacy of a vast number of natural healing consumables. It provides recommended doses when a product is given the thumbs up, and warns against common assumptions many of take for granted owing to media overexposure. When research is presented that purports to support the medicinal qualities of a product, the authors provide a careful analysis of the strength of the reserach, whether its been replicated, and whether other research has been done that has had less stellar findings. A brief history of natural products is provided whether its an herb used for thousands of years or a current fad that is prevalant in other health care systems, particularly in Europe. I do have ONE MAJOR disappointment, however. Where is the UPDATED edition? This book is now six years old; much has happened in the world of conventional and natural medicine in that time, and without such a reference guide it would require endless searching to learn of newer findings.

This was the first book I purchased when I decided to “get into” herbs and supplements. I was looking for a concise, yet thorough, book of herbs and the ailments best treated by each. I wanted as much information as possible about the pros and cons of each herb, interactions and contradictions-not just a listing of the popular uses for each herb. While this book doesn’t provide “how-to” recipes for salves, tinctures, teas, etc., it does give the beginner a great basis for understanding herbal uses and options in a very easy and user-friendly format. It has everything I was looking for in an herbal referenece book and it IS my bible. It has whet my appetite for more herbal reading material and possibly a career in herbal health. Recommend!!
