Editorial Reviews
Jeffery B. Blumberg, Chief, Antioxidants Research Laboratory; Jean Mayer USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging, Tuffs University
Smythies clear explains the basic science of antioxidants and then describes the actual studies supporting the importance of these nutrients to health promotion and disease prevention, providing a strong foundation for his practical advice about diet and supplements. It's a rare treat to see full citations provided for follow-up by the interested reader.

Balz Frei, editor of Natural Antioxidants in Human Health and Disease
Smythies takes an extremely detailed and comprehensive look at the current scientific knowledge of the role of antioxidants in human health. A book for the educated lay person that's well balanced and free of the hype that often accompines the topic of antioxidants!
