    WAY ahead of its time & still the best I've read- indispensable
  

*by T***E on Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2016*

I've been an Atkins fan for decades, such a wise and humble man, and this book is STILL my go-to book on health and natural supplements.  Unlike most books with a narrow focus or a specific perspective to tout, the book is exhaustive, and research-based; it carefully explains physiological and disease mechanisms, and the effects of a broad array of healing foods, vitamins, minerals, supplements, and herbs on both.  It is comprehensive and detailed, but clear, lively, readable.  Diverse- from Atkins' experience with different varieties of medicinal mushrooms to ayurvedic herbs and those used in Chinese medicine- and so much more.  Note that the Atkins Diet ISN'T the subject of this book, though issues that relate are scattered here and there (e.g., sugar as an ANTI-nutrient, fats such as MCTs and butter as good for you).Chapter 1 alone is worth the price of the book.  Atkins discusses medical history and how vitamins and other supplements came to be devalued in the first place.  He pays homage to mentors Adele Davis, Gaylord Hauser and Carlton Fredericks, and explains how medicine can and should be truly complementary, with nutrition and supplements providing the first line of defense and pharmaceuticals used in crises, short-term fixes, utilized primarily to "block or abruptly change a bodily function."He wrote: "The best medical care will always emphasize enabling our bodies to heal themselves.  How can it be appropriate for the first treatment of choice to be something that's potentially harmful [i.e., unnatural pharmaceuticals used over the long term] when there are safer, equally effective alternatives [natural supplements that boost the body's ability to heal itself]?"  He provides a cogent explanation as to why different people need different supplements in different amounts (and cannot necessarily derive what they need from their diet, even a healthy one, at least before homeostasis is achieved).  This book is jam-packed with essential information, there's not a wasted word in it.Recently, I tried an experiment- I looked up words in the index that are issues of current concern and discussion- they're nearly all there and discussed in detail, e.g., an exhaustive discussion of fats, including fatty acids, MCT oil, lauric acid, coconut oil, omega 3s/6s/9s, trans fats, etc.  There are like discussions of the causes of inflammation, the importance of gut bacteria and probiotics/prebiotics on autoimmune and brain function, the importance of magnesium and potassium, environmental toxins and detoxification, yeast, processed foods, FOS (Yacon), DMSO, hyaluronic acid, BCAAs, you name it.  The only issues I couldn't find in the index were pH (alkaline-acid imbalance), gluten, or Celiac's disease (though they may be there somewhere).  Intriguingly, there are treatments for MS (e.g., involving prebiotics, and enzymes, p. 236) and other diseases Atkins discusses and personally utilized and deemed successful that I've not seen elsewhere.The book is extremely well-written and well-organized, and meticulously cross-referenced.  For example, in the chapter on amino acids they are discussed in terms of their function as well as how supplementation benefits individual diseases.  Later, in the section on ailments, specific amino acids will be mentioned again along with other nutrients and supplements indicated for a particular condition.  You can look up virtually anything by its name, its function, or by the condition it treats.Throughout Atkins details what clinical research has shown on effectiveness (all studies/sources are listed in the appendix, by supplement).  Moreover, the book is based on Atkins' professional practice, his treatment of thousands of patients (illustrative case histories are peppered throughout).  And finally, Dr. Atkins provides guidelines for creating a personalized program of your own (and addresses every conceivable issue related thereto).  Comprehensive, rigorous, wonderful- wouldn't be without it.  Highest recommendation!

    Excellent content, but disregard the conspiracy theory
  

*by E***O on Reviewed in the United States on June 11, 2003*

This book has useful and helpful information about vitamins, minerals, amino acids and their role in the body. I couldn't be happier with the technical part, very well documented. However, a big con of this book is Dr. Atkins' huge ego and conspiracy theories. He almost claims that he started the vitamin hype and the nutrition-based approach to medicine. We know this is not true. Many others deserve so much more credit. Also, he goes down a path of silly and unfounded arguments about how the government is evil and doesn't want to raise the RDA of certain nutrients. This is silly. The RDA should be as low as it can be. Otherwise food manufacturers would be adding tons of unnecessary vitamins to food, more than the bare minimum to just prevent diseases. People would feel compelled to take mega doses of vitamins without proper information about them. It's up to us to raise our intake if we want to. RDA is not supposed to be the optimum amount for everyone, just the minimum to prevent simple deficiencies that could cause diseases. Also, he uses intricate reasoning to arrive at conclusions that vitamins are not more widespread because food manufacturers lobby against them. One could argue the opposite, that vitamins are becoming widespread because their manufacturers are lobbying for people to accept them. There's always a silly conspiracy theory for any subject. Dr. Atkins chose an absurd one and he stuck to it throughout his book. I suggest the reader takes his non-medical opinions (politics, RDA, etc) with a grain of salt. But not too much salt, because sodium is bad for you :-) Otherwise, the book is excellent.
