THE VITAMIN SOLUTION is written in clear, jargon-free language, with citations provided for further reading and to provide supporting evidence for the authors’ statements. The authors are medical professionals and speak with the authority of professional knowledge and experience. Their advice is sensibly presented without the promise of miracles, and with careful warnings about the damage possible from overdose and from using vitamins as a cure-all without taking other medical steps as well.
The book’s chapters each address a different health issue, for optimal ease of use according to particular concerns, and it covers a wide range of medical problems and potential sufferers. The index discusses individual vitamins, providing a quick-reference for how each is used by the body, where to find it, what dosages are appropriate, and what problems arise from deficiency or taking too much. However, the book at times reads like an advertisement for the authors’ business, as Vous Vitamin is regularly touted throughout as a source for trustworthy, properly-formulated supplements.
THE VITAMIN SOLUTION is a worthwhile resource for information on vitamin supplements, their usages, and recommended dosages, but the authors’ personal interests should be taken into account.
