Book Review: information you can't find anywhere else
Summary: 4 Stars
Lyle McWilliam does the world (certainly North America) a service with this book by discussing multi-vitamins and multi-minerals in detail, creating a clear and easy to understand grading system and then grading every product he can get his hands on.
His explanations of vitamins and how they work and the various studies and understanding of the aging process are excellent and well worth reading for anyone concerned about their health.
I do find that his discussion of Olivol, an extract from olives with a process patented by Usana Incorporated AND including it in his grading criteria does bias him towards the Usana line of products. I still think it is a quibble over the top two or three, which are all excellent products.
What would surprise most people is that the common ones found in grocery stores and drug stores are just not worth taking. It is also the case that most doctors don't have a clue about what constitutes good nutrition and they could benefit immensely from reading this book.
Other interesting information includes which vitamins can be taken to excess and which ones can't (fat soluble versus water soluble vitamins).
All in all an excellent book.
