The Supplement Handbook: A Trusted Expert's Guide to What Works & What's Worthless for More Than 100 Conditions Kindle Edition

This book has helped me manage multiple health issues I've accumulated over the years.The medicines listed in this handbook are far safer then what doctors push and with a wider range of benefit. Primary/family doctors don't do much for people in america anymore except write antibiotics for a ear infection even then your better of going to an urgent care for faster serviceIf your suffering from pain and inflammation doctors no longer prescribe opioids and your far better taking plant medicine then large amounts of ibuprofen or Tylenol that can cause ulcers and liver toxicity.Mental issues like depression or anxiety are also better solved with these natural medicines because they have far less side effects then anti depressant drugs and anxiety wise doctors now very rarely prescribe benzodiazepenes anymore which was the one group of pharmaceuticals that could truly stop panic attacks and intense anxiety like symptoms.It should be widely known in 2024 that for general health a MD is the last person you want to talk to about your concerns.If you need surgery or have a very serious disease then by all means see a doctor but for general health nature solves it best.

I am an oncologist who specializes in treating only prostate cancer and I recommend The Supplement Handbook by Dr. Moyad to all of my patients. I completely trust Dr. Moyad’s expertise when it comes to supplements and vitamins and this book has proved to be an invaluable resource in my office. The format and specificity of this book lend to easy reference and understanding even for those just starting their supplement research. It also covers nearly every condition you think of (including prostate cancer), so it is guaranteed to be used again and again. As always, Dr. Moyad injects some of his brilliant humor into the pages of this book, making it not only wildly informational but also very entertaining.Besides Dr. Moyad’s knowledge on supplements and vitamins, he includes the appendix “Dr. Moyad’s 70-Point Research Checklist” which outlines criteria to consider while evaluating a paper or study. This checklist is yet another wonderful resource not only for the supplement world, but also for anyone trying to navigate the medical world as a whole. If you do not have a copy of The Supplement Handbook, I strongly urge you to pick one up!Mark Scholz, MD

Had the older version of this book for years, and it was definitely time for an upgrade. This is a great resource for anyone who wants to be proactive about their own health.

The older I get, the more I resist running to my doctor for prescriptions, and yet, too often my body is sending me signals that one thing or another needs correction or tweaking. If I can solve it naturally, I try to do so-- though I do have a good doctor, and he helps to keep me healthy. He's not particularly well-versed in dietary supplements, however, so I have had to do much investigation on my own. I live 2 blocks from a wonderful natural foods store, and I can spend hours reading the labels on the various supplements-- and it can be enormously confusing. The info gleaned from Google searching is mind-numbing, and as soon as I get convinced of one thing, I will immediately find three articles to refute the same information.Author Mark Moyad is a "real" doctor, and has a great deal of experience and research under his belt. Each ailment is handled separately in a chapter, and he methodically rates supplements as to effectiveness. He then tells you what lifestyle changes could also address the malady, and he tells you what supplements don't work at all. He tells you not just what, but WHY.... without lapsing into long-winded scientific jargon that I can't understand. I bought the Kindle version so I can have his info in my bag when I'm out shopping. Currently, I'm following his advice for migraines, high cholesterol, and insomnia---- good results, so far!

Dr. Moyad has an impressive resume in his field. I've had the opportunity to attend one of his presentations in person and he is someone I found not just dynamic in his presentation but trustworthy, able to field any question that came his way and above all he seems to be extremely dedicated to his profession- my husband is a victim of prostate cancer and with that comes myriad questions on any number of issues from the diagnosis itself to his treatment, nutrition, supplements, battling side-effects of chemotherapy, managing his blood pressure, cholesterol and maintaining proper weight and a healthy diet and exercise regimen. Dr. Moyad address all of this in his book in an easy to read fashion- the book truly is a handbook that we reference constantly. I can't recommend it highly enough- especially since having the opportunity to meet him and see him in action personally. My husband and I trust his expertise and commitment to spreading information that is vital to a long and healthy life. He also takes the head-spinning wealth of marketing hype and misinformation around supplements and presents clear information on what is sound, safe information and instruction.

Sehr aus US Optik geschrieben. Oft fehlt die globale Rundsicht was in Europa Afrika und Asien zum Thema geforscht wurde,. Wissen um Vitamin A scheint minim vorhanden. Gute Rundschau über die Thematik.

医療界のタブーに触れてないようです。統合失調とグルタミンの関係性等には一切触れていません。日本のネット情報で出てくる情報と比べて新しい部分は少ないように感じました。値段もアメリカでの定価よりもかなり多目に取られました。日本語の表現がうまく思いつきませんが、biasを強く感じる文体のため、読んでいて少し不快でした。無料英語オンラインジャーナル読んだ方がいいんじゃないですか？

One of the only books I have really taken the time to fully read through. SO helpful! Everything you need to know about tons of popular (and less known) supplements, all written in a relatable and easy-to-read manner. I will definitely be using it as a go-to reference guide from now on.
