This review is from: Down Syndrome and Vitamin Therapy (Paperback)

I like that I can reference the info in the book as I need it. I do find that there are quiet a few endorsed products that always make me a little leary about the author and if they are biased due to financial incentive.

Overall I believe that as the parent of any child you should do as much research as your time allows when you have a child dealing with issues of any kind. This book fit the bill for me.
