Synopsis

How often have we heard the startling and often thrilling claims about a new dietary supplement or herbal remedy guaranteed to cure, revitalize, rejuvenate, grow hair, minimize fatigue, or maximize weight loss? In Demystifying Dietary Supplements: Making Informed Choices, clinical nurse researcher Maureen Giuffre, PhD, delivers a self-help book that opens the door to anyone looking for the truth behind the claims. In a highly unregulated marketplace, false promises are made with little, if any, repercussions, so it falls on us, the consumer, to sift through the promises and discover the truth. Are the ingredients in this supplement really safe? Does the product deliver as declared? Through anecdotal material and careful analysis, Giuffre exposes the deceptions and gives a compelling explanation on how we can learn to differentiate the healthy and helpful from the dangerous and worthless.
