I bought this book last week and it's excellent value for money. It has all the information about vitamins and herbs; it gives recommendations as well as warnings; advice about specific ailments, and so much more. I was surprised at the depth of information given. For example, my doctor told me that the herb known as horsetail helped halt osteoporosis when taken along with calcium. He also recommended boron. Nowhere else have I found confirmation of that information but this book mentions both. Unfortunately, you will not find horsetail listed in the index. That is the only complaint I have about the book that, occasionally, just occasionally, something was not listed in the index that was referred to in the text. If you care about your health, I recommend it. It's a no-nonsense book.

I had purchased Earl's bible at a used book store. Alas, it was from 1979. Even though it may have been "out of date" the information was right on! The Anniversary edition was just as good as I expected. The preliminary findings of some "vitamins" from 1979, were just as he wrote, the new bible just solidified the information. I take this information and compare with my other research, Earl is usually in-line. I don't believe anything verbatim, but this a great basis for natural health. I tell everyone who is interested in vitamins and natural supplements that this book is a MUST have in their library.

I found this book to be very helpful in guiding my selection of vitamins and supplements that will fit my age and lifestyle. I wish there was more information given about various clinical studies however.

I first bought this book in the 80,s. Have given away a number of them.
I would highly recommend this book to everyone.
When I first bought the book I was having lower back problems. After reading the book I bought my first bottle of zinc. Within 3 days my back pain had stopped.
My wife & I both take vitimans, minerals, and herbs mentioned in the book.
Each vitamin is mentioned,what it will do for you as well as how much to take.
well woth the price.

Have been back in the gym for about three years as an "old timer" - watch the diet plus we do not drink alchohol, coffee and/or smoke.... for 40 years. Have been aware of how important it is to eat correctly and have been taking a vitamin pill every day and wondering exactly what the benefits were beyond what we thought was taking place.

This "Vitamin Bible" turned out to be a re-education regarding every aspect of feeding the body and mind - interesting reading and beneficial regarding necesary information for anyone considering the basics for living "better". Although we considered ourself to be "enlightened" we are realizing, with the turning of each page, that we have barely scratched the surface of knowledge as relates to Vitamins, Minerals and Food for the maximization of our physical potential to live and feel better..... to live well within our body.

Got this for my wife to replace/update her original. She uses it daily and said it does have considerable updates since the 1999 version.

This is the third time I purchased this book. Twice before, I loaned this book to others only to never see it again. This book is an excellent source for vitamin information.

It is a Great book. Comprehensive information, but easy to understand by the novice. Easy to find information and recommendations. It is a must text-reference book to have. Use vitamins wisely. Lean about vitamin compatibilities and when to take them. You may be wasting the value of vitamins and your money.

I would highly recommend this book to anyone , any age. Easy to use and has good information. This is an updated version of the original which I bought many years ago. I have given away 3 copies and now I will buy one more for me-again.

A great book that explains about all vitamins and how they used by the body. It also tells about the natural food sources for them and when and how to ingest them. Almost any information on practically all supplements can be found in this book as well as their use in natural healing. Also gives information on preventive care.
