About the Author

Michael T. Murray, N.D. is widely regarded as one of the world's leading authorities on natural medicine. He is a graduate, faculty member, and serves on the Board of Trustees of Bastyr University in Seattle, Washington. Dr. Murray is the co-author of A Textbook of Natural Medicine, the definitive textbook on naturopathic medicine for physicians, as well as the consumer version - Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine.

For the past twenty years, Dr. Murray has been compiling a massive database of original scientific studies from the medical literature. He has personally collected over 50,000 articles from the scientific literature which provide strong evidence on the effectiveness of diet, vitamins, minerals, glandular extracts, herbs, and other natural measures in the maintenance of health and the treatment of disease. It is from this constantly expanding database that Dr. Murray provides the answers on health and healing. According to Dr. Murray: "One of the great myths about natural medicines is that they are not scientific. The fact of the matter is that for most common illnesses there is greater support in the medical literature for a natural approach than there is for drugs or surgery."

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to read, clear and to the point!!!!, January 30, 2001

This review is from: Diabetes & Hypoglycemia: Your Natural Guide to Healing with Diet, Vitamins, Minerals, Herbs, Exercise, and Other Natural Methods (Paperback)

I have low blood sugar and throughout the past few years I have read many books on the subject of sugar. In fact tonight I was reading; The Sugar Addict's Total Recovery Program. As I was reading this book I was getting frustrated at how wordy the book was and how wordy the other books had been that I had read before. The book by Michael T. Murray is clear and to the point. It's an easy read but invaluable for the information it conveys. It is definitely my favorite book and I have been recommending and purchasing it for friends and family for years.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book full of hard-to-find information !!, March 16, 1998

This review is from: Diabetes & Hypoglycemia: Your Natural Guide to Healing with Diet, Vitamins, Minerals, Herbs, Exercise, and Other Natural Methods (Paperback)

This book provides information that I've looked for, but never found, in other books on Diabetes. It gives a wealth of info on diet, vitamins/minerals, and general nutrition for diabetics. All references are footnoted, and most advice is accompanied with detailed medical explanations. Other books on diabetes seem to give a lot of advice, without explaining how the conclusions were reached, or what pertinent research was done. Not so with this book! It has been a BIG help in finding very important information, and being a great general guide to subjects that are critical to diabetic well-being!

5.0 out of 5 stars Information with details, research and guidance, November 4, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Diabetes & Hypoglycemia: Your Natural Guide to Healing with Diet, Vitamins, Minerals, Herbs, Exercise, and Other Natural Methods (Paperback)

Murry's book gives so much information on the subjects of diabetes and hypoglycemia. It was also nice to see the two together since they do have a relation. His guidelines are very detailed and easy to understand. This book has helped me and has given me more of the information that I have been searching for. I would definitely recommend this book.
