Summary: The optimum nutrition bible
Comment: This man who presents himself as an authority on nutrition is extremely dangerous. Without any reservation, I consider him a quake. His "knowledge" is largely anecdotical and questionable as the least. Furthermore the man has a vested interest in advising supplementing with huge quantities of vitamins and minerals. He has his own brand. Growing up, I never took any vitamin or mineral supplements on a regular basis. On the odd occasions that I had any need for nutritional support, I went to my doctor for controlled supplementation of limited dosage.
Don't buy this book! Rather look at "You are what you eat" by Kirsten Harvig and let food be your medicine. Listen to traditional wisdom.
You've been warned. Keep away from this dangerous quake!
If I could have gone any lower, I'd have given this book and author zero stars.

Summary: FULL OF HEALTHY ADVICE
Comment: Of course, many people would not regard this book as a 'Nutritional Bible', given its modest 342-paged volume. Still, a careful look at it reveals a lot.
This book left nothing to doubt with its expanded coverage on every aspect of human nutrition. Its information were abridged in most cases, but they are far-reaching enough. It did remind its (novice) audience that energy and nutritional requirements may vary depending on age, sex, and level of activity.
"The Optimum Nutrition Bible" used simple language to explain the manifestations of various nutritional disorders and deficiencies. It also described and classified nutrients in a way that any reader would follow.
This is not a classical text that should be reserved for medics: anybody can get along with its contents. In addition to sports personnel, I would advise patients with nutritional sensitivities: like diabetics, alcoholics, anorexia nervosa, etc., to pay closer attention to it. Its message is simple and clear; but above all, very useful.

Summary: Excellent Book if You're Serious about your Health
Comment: I recomend this book to everyone that is conscerned about their health. I was required to purchase this book for my N.D. program and it was one of the best, effective health books I have ever read. I have lost 20lbs. and have been able to go off of my blood pressure medicine. In addition when I wake up in the morning I am full of vitality and energy. I feel good instead of feeling sluggish and worn down throughout the day. Anyone can feel this good with diet and nutrition alteration and this is just the book to show you how to transform your life and physical well-being.
