Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Haas, a celebrity nutritionist and author of Eat To Win (Rawson Assocs., 1984) and Eat To Succeed (Dutton, 1987), promotes the idea that appropriate use of nutrients and dietary supplements will allow us to reach our peak physical and intellectual levels. Haas presents chapters that focus on waking up one's brain, losing weight, enhancing sex, sleeping, developing muscles, and improving memory and cognition with the help of nutrients. Read by Haas, each chapter contains a comprehensive list of nutrients and dietary supplements, recipes for incorporating these supplements, and the best times of day to ingest them. Although current biochemical technology has provided some understanding of nutrient functions, much in this area remains unknown; indeed, the Food and Drug Administration recently limited the health claims used in promoting vitamins and nutrients. Purchase according to demand.

From AudioFile
Haas's advice on the use of food and supplements alleged to improve mental growth and acuity and slow the aging process is hard to digest. The information, delivered by the author, does not translate well to audio. The experience is somewhat like listening to the rapid reading of a chemistry textbook. Listeners will need a large dose of the "smart nutrients" if they're to comprehend this densely packed text. B.V. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine

Good Basic Info on "Smart" Drugs and Nutrients,
By Mike From Lincoln Park in Chicago "moobearus" (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Eat Smart, Think Smart (Mass Market Paperback)
This is a good primer for those interested in supplements and nutrients for living long, good physical, and mental health. The book doesn't go terribly deep into any one nutrient but does give clear, easy to understand information on the major nutrients, supplements, and "smart" drugs (also gives info on where to get them).
I find the recipe portion of the book a complete waste, but can see how some might find it useful. If you know someone who is interested in taking supplements to live longer or healthier - then you need to get them this book - they will love it!
