About the book

"The Oxford Book of Health Foods begins with an account of modern concepts of human nutrition, followed by a series of over one hundred accounts of individual health foods and dietary supplements. In all cases the importance of these products in human health is explained, and, for herbal medicines, the evidence for their claimed therapeutic value is given, and toxic effects are described. Full-colour illustrations accompany these accounts." "This illustrated book will be of interest not just to health professionals, but to all people with an interest in health foods and healthy eating. The text is supplemented by a glossary, explaining the more technical terms, and a bibliography listing sources for further reading."--Jacket.
