This is the 2nd book on the subject that I've read, and I am very impressed with the breadth of knowledge the author has not only of nutrition, but also anatomy, physiology, pathology, diseases, and other holistic approaches to reducing stress and making wiser life choices. Well done. The author touches on nearly everything I've been studying for the last 20 years. What makes this a four star instead of five, the many typos in the e-book version. I'm now buying the paperback hoping for much more readable text.
