Over 200 therapies are examined in an alternative health guide based on the best medical evidence currently available. Updated for its second edition, this packs in the latest details on what works, what doesn’t, and a range of therapy strategies from mind/spirit to physical touch therapies, herbs, diet and biologic therapies. It’s been completely revised and expanded to reflect many industry changes and is a ‘must’ for any health or general lending library.
Very helpful

I have been using this a lot as a great reference to which herbal supplements are effective and safe to take. I feel this is a must have book for anyone who is interested in trying to take vitamins or herbal supplements to help with their fight against cancer.
