Out of the nightmare of AIDS has come an understanding of the human immune system that scientists are calling a new form of health. In The Ten Best Tools to Boost Your Immune System, a microbiologist and an expert science writer have paired up to offer a clear explanation of this cutting-edge information, along with an easy-to-follow program to put it all to use. Unlike the restrictive and often gimmicky programs found in many health books, the immune boosters in The Ten Best Tools to Boost Your Immune System are straightforward diet and lifestyle choices involving both the body and the mind - choices that readers can easily adapt to their individual needs. The Ten Best Tools to Boost Your Immune System is essential reading for people with chronic illness who are seeking to improve their depressed immune systems, as well as for those who want to keep up-to-date with the latest research on wellness.

Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
That stress affects the immune system is old news. So is the association between vitamin E and lowered incidence of cancer. Now the relationship between zinc and colds has hit the headlines. Marshaling a wealth of research and presenting it in a popularly written fashion, the authors trot out the pros and cons about each of those subjects and present a wealth of other information to help readers improve health and fight illness. Among the most interesting chapters are those that link immune functioning with stress and interpersonal relationships, the upshot being that activities such as building supportive relationships, laughing, and even surfing the Net can have beneficial physiological effects. There's also a separate chapter concerning immune boosters and HIV/AIDS. A well-reasoned, enlightening book that focuses on the practical without forgetting the science. Stephanie Zvirin
