4.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful source and guide, April 4, 2003

Niquey (Royal Oak, MI) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Prevention's Ultimate Guide to Women's Health and Wellness: Action Plans for More Than 100 Women's Health Problems (Hardcover)
I bought this book a month ago and am beginning to wonder how I lived without it. This book outlines everything that could ever concern a woman, from skin care to infertility to weight loss to cancer. It is a simple guide to women's health and offers not only traditional "medical" advice, but also offers alternative therapys for most common health problems. This is something that I will have with me and refer to for the rest of my life.
