I checked it out of the local library first just to see if it fit my informational needs. The book was so full of great information that I wanted to have a copy of my own so I could mark it up as I read it. To my surprise, there was an updated version with more than 80 extra pages. I write on health issues so I will include it as a resource for my readers. Understanding vitamins and minerals and their synergistic relationships to the various metabolic mechanisms going on all the time inside the body is clearly examined in this well written, well researched book. I’d recommend it to anyone wanting to understand the whole picture of what brings about good health.

Perfect for Anyone!
My first exposure to The Real Vitamin & Mineral Book was the previous edition as a textbook in nutrition college.It is one of only two books that I found to be invaluable enough from my school days to buy the new edition when it became available.This edition is as clearly written and well researched as the previous editions, with the added bonus of updated information.As a holistic health consultant I still think it is important to seek professional advice before you start making changes to your wellness plan, but this book will help you to understand what supplements truly can and cannot do.Enjoy!

Old favorite in a new edition
What’s nice is that she gives you sample recommendations, so you don’t end up feeling totally at sea. And you can take what looks like the right amount, not too many pills. Even so, if you are in bad shape, it’s likely to be a couple of small handfuls.It’s possible that I am alive because of the earlier edition, after environmentally caused asthma made me really quite ill for a while. But good grief, I hate taking that many pills. And I was fairly smart about buying combinations.

… every person on the planet should read a book like this to inform themselves that Vitamins and minerals are …
I believe that every person on the planet should read a book like this to inform themselves that Vitamins and minerals are not ‘nice to have’ but essential fuel for health. Supplementation is absolutely critical with a healthy diet due to mineral depletion of most soils. The only complete sources left are sea algae. If this book were to be revised I would include the following:1. More trace mineral information since they do serve a purpose like ‘Germanium’ which is only found in Ginger, although it is not essential it permits more oxygen to be utilised by various organs in the body.2. My understanding of Vitamin D is that Vitamin D3 sulphate is the only form that the body uses efficiently. Thus exposure of our skin converts sunlight to Vitamin D3 sulphate within the cholesterol of the skin. The only other source is raw milk which is destroyed by pasteurization along with essential enzymes that help digest the casein and eliminate lactose intolerances. So I would question the benefits of supplementation of this Vitamin.3. It is worth mentioning that our own gut flora produces essential vitamins that our body needs which include the whole B complex and Vitamin K2which are bio available through absorption in the lower intestine. I have read however that these vitamins are not bio available and are excreted out of the body before they can be used which are find hard to believe. If the microbiom (gut flora) is in a healthy state then these vitaimns are used by the body.4. The book states that ‘Riboflavin (Vitamin B2)’, Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B5)’, and Biotin (Vitamin B7) have no known toxicities, however it is my understanding that ingesting high levels of these vitamins can potentially damage DNA..it is worth further research.5. There is a section on Vitamin K and there it is stated that our bacteria manufactures Vitamin K but no real distinction is made between Vitamin K1 ( available in plant food ) used by the body to assist blood clotting and K2 (available from our own gut flora, eggs ( approx 15micrograms), Natto (390micrograms), goose liver and some fermented cheeses like Gouda) used by the body to assist the transport of calcium.

Very highly recommended!
Best book I ever read in the subject. I have owned a copy since her first edition, and bought this for a gift. Shari knows her stuff and is a very interesting writer, easy to read and understand. She makes it very interesting. Anyone who wants to know more about your body, good health, and what you might be lacking (in diet) should read this book. Very highly recommended.

very good book
extremely informative. I started taking vitamins according to this book and I have to say I feel much better. I was taking gnc and found that they have don’t meet the requirements set by this book. That is not saying much because most vitamins do not have the amounts that this book requires. I did increase my magnesium by 400 mg and boy what a difference that makes.

Best book on Vitamin & Minerals that I have read in a long time.
I thought I pretty much knew all I needed to know about Vitamin and Minerals; I was wrong. This is the best book I have read on the subject in a long time. The author is so detailed on each vitamin that when you go to purchase them you know exactly what they should contain.I would strongly recommend this book to anyone who wants to get the most for their money when buying vitamins.

Not good book at all, unless you want some silly reading that does not educate you at all. Not worth to buy
