In this 83 page book, health guru Andrew Weil, M.D. offers his expert advice and guidance to help you remain healthy and fight off illness with the help of selected vitamins, minerals, and herbs. He sets the record straight regarding multivitamins and minerals, Vitamin B12, herbal remedies, antioxidants and other products that are in vogue today. Dr. Weil helps you get on the best road to recovery from sickness and/or improve your overall health. There's an awful lot of valuable information and advice in this little book. It's certainly worth the price and the quick read. I find myself referring to it often. It's a great companion to his other books.

This book is a great little source of info on Vitamines. Can be used as a quick guide to vitamines for the everyday person. Most sections are only a page long. The format is like a Vitamine FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions. Great price.

I quickly found out what the "Ask Dr. Weil..." series of books are like. I have read two of Dr. Weil's full length books and was expecting more of the same. This book is 75 pages of Question and Answer format articles about vitamins and some herbal remedies, almost like a high quality Internet FAQ.

The book is interesting with a number of specific recomendations on how to take vitamins for particular illnesses. It is good information for the price (...).

If you have read one of Dr. Weil's previous full length books that deal with vitamins you will feel like you are reading a condensed version of the same information. Like all of Dr. Weil's books there is a good Resources section to help you find more in-depth information.

dr, weil is honest and down to earth he explains both the pro's and con's.he tells you how much of a vitamin or mineral a person should take.in this day and age of uncaring doctors at least there is one doctor who gives you both sides of the medicine and vitamin world

Dr. Weil gives a brief description of many vitamin and mineral supplements. While many authors today are selling supplements that do not live up to their promises, Dr. Weil gives common sense advise on what to spend your money on that actually will make a difference in your life, and health. This is a pocket book that your will use over and over. Buy it and use it with all of Dr. Weils' books to heal your life.

This book is very small and simple yet it is good for a very quick reference to get you started on the right track. It is not detailed but helpfull - worth the price as long as you don't pay for shipping.

This LITTLE Booklet does not provide comprehensive information about vitamins and minerals. Short questions and answers do not give enough information to be of any help. You will be very disappointed with this booklet if you are searching for in depth guidance. The title is very misleading.

I know many people think Dr. Weil is the be all and end all of medicine, but I have seen more and better info. I'm not saying some of his information isn't valid, just don't think he's a one stop shop for answers.

Dr. Andrew Weil is my health guru. I treat any information I get from him with the highest regard. I found the information he gave in this book regarding carotenes, vitamin E, vitamin C and selenium to be very helpful.
I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in improving their health.

I found this book helpful and used it in conjunction with his other book 8 weeks to Optimum health.
