Excellent Resource Information
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This book has a lot of excellent information about how diet can influence PMS, allergies, depression and a number of other disorders. It gives information about the little known essential fatty acid, GLA, and the "good" prostaglandins PGE1 which are found in Evening Primrose Oil. The book also outlines some nutrients/foods for different physical problems along with dosages and cautions. It also lists references for additional information. I highly recommend this book - and am buying several for friends and family.
