Synopsis

Despite the fact that most supplement makers cannot make medical claims on their packaging - and consequently can merely hint at what a remedy might be for and hope you'll be smart enough to pick up on their clues - the natural health industry is booming. Yet even if you do your homework before you shop, the chances are you're going to end up baffled and confused, because for every condition you can think of there's likely to be around 30 natural remedies that could help alleviate or even banish the symptoms. And with 30,000 supplements on sale and a further 1,000 coming onto the market every year, how do you know which to buy or what really works? How do you sift the real science from the marketing hype and make the right choice for you and your family? Now, taking a holistic approach, award-winning Sunday Times journalist Susan Clark's WHAT REALLY WORKS IN NATURAL HEALTH cuts through the confusion, the doubts and the uncertainties to offer invaluable guidance on natural health products and how best to use them to achieve optimum physical and emotional wellbeing. So if you want to use natural remedies more safely and effectively - and want to make informed, confident decisions - this is the place to start. In fact, don't step into the health store without this, the only guide you'll ever need!
