This is a great natural remedy reference with listings of individual remedies, such as vitamin D and iodine, and helpful "combination cures" for things like acne, arthritis, heartburn and hypertension. My only complaint is that I wish Bowden had listed some of the possible drug interactions for his remedies.

Before going all whole hog into this book, be sure to read the introduction. From there, make your mind up about how you're going to read this book. I did not read sections that were irrelevant to me or my family members. Those sections I did read offered some new light and suggestions to issues I am having. The organization of the book makes sense- different than how I thought he'd go about it, but in the end, it made sense. Feeling better already!
Didn't look at the table of contents before reading... I thought this would be mostly about things like food and yoga, but it's actually mostly about supplements (which are not regulated by the FDA, and therefore consume at your own risk!)
Good resource to look at when you have a specific trouble. Hope some of them work, and I am in the one third that these natural cures really help out, instead of that one third that it does nothing for.
I need to have this book for a reference guide!
Another good book to have on shelf as a reference for ailments, aches, and pains. I learned a lot from this book as well. Johnny Bowden did a great job again.
I LOVE all his books. He gives you lots of great info without all the bias or extreme views!
Recommended by close relative, good use of typography and design,
This book never seems to find its way back to the book shelf because I constantly refer back to it when I want to find info on various ailments and the supplements/types of food that can resolve or mollify their symptoms.
