Description
This is a text which provides a contemporary approach to the use of lifestyle, herbal and nutritional interventions in health care. While conventional health care has long classified many nutritional and herbal remedies as folklore, there is increasing scientific evidence to support a number of 'old wives tales'.This book demonstrates the biological plausibility of using supplements in clinical care and supports the scientific validity of such interventions by referring to clinical trials. It provides the health professional with therapeutic protocols that can be used to manage or support other treatment regimes in promoting health, preventing and treating disease. The book is divided in to 3 parts. Part 1 considers the principles of nutritional intervention. Part 2 list prevalent diseases and provides a therapeutic protocol for their management. Part 3 lists nutrients (and some frequently used herbs) and seeks to catalogue the indications, doses, interactions and side effects that require consideration when providing safe and effective clinical care.Key Features

Book Reviews
""This is an excellent and practical book for the clinician. I founf this Clinical Guide easy to use, highly relevant to clinical practice and exciting to read."" Mel Sydney-Smith, Complementary Medicine, February 2004year's edition does not disappoint and can readily be recommended for providing an overview of the past year's developments. All opthalmologists, both generalists and sub-specialists, can benefit from reading this book; it will help bring them up to date with developments they might not be aware of outside their own main area of interest. This is something worth doing once year. At a minimum, reading the summary overviews is well worth the effort."" Gary Leber
