Customer Reviews

A pleasant surprise - very interesting!

I had used (with much success) a nutritional product the author of this book developed. This led me to buy a copy of his book to learn more about one of the nutrients I am taking. Everything about this book was a very pleasant surprise. I never thought that a health book could be so interesting. I've now read it twice, but I still pick it up and read a few pages just for fun. This book is full of interesting information about our bodies, diseases and aging. It makes science understandable. This is a very good book!

feeling better

After reading this book,I became intrigued with the authors research. I remember seeing the commercials for a yogurt company years ago about people living for mamy years and being productive into their late 80's. I investigated where I can purchase some of these wonderful herbs.I am 67 years old and have a chronic back problem, I started using Rhododendron Caucasicum and am now enjoying a pain free existemce.This book was written in a very clear and understanding manner. Thank you Mr Fox.
