Cutting Edge Stuff!!
Dr Mindell proves once again that he is on the cutting edge in nutrition... Dr Mindell is years ahead of any other nutritional author. In this book you'll find nutrients that the massive health food store doesn't even sell-yet. But after a couple of years everyone will find out about them, and there'll be a demand for them. I found previews of soon to be popular nutrients, along with some 'tried and true' nutrients that I already knew about and Dr. Mindell gave me more information about them... If you are into health and nutrition than this, and all of Dr. Mindell's books should be referred to often.

Excellent.
Well organized. Very useful for all types of inquiries about what vitamins to take.
My only issue is that it recommends aspartame at one point.

Vitamin Bible by Earl Mindell
The author is both a pharmacist and nutritionist. The work explains many aspects of vitamins including daily allowances, benefits for the heart and lung, potency, precautions and a host of relevant factors every consumer should know. He explains how enzymes facilitate the digestion of food and how Lipase splits fat. In addition, he demonstrates why older people might need HCL supplements due to a paucity of digestive acids. The author devotes a full chapter to explaining a glossary of complex vitamin jargon. He breaks down vitamin-taking into various constituent groups; such as, pregnant women, children, runners, senior citizens, night workers and a host of relevant constituencies. Did you know that plain ketchup has 8% more sugar than ice cream? Lastly, he explains how to slow the aging process via the use of nucleic acids. The work is a good investment in developing a vitamin regimen to complement key components of health maintenance.
