About the author

Earl Mindell is a Canadian-American writer and nutritionist known for advocating nutrition as preventive healthcare and promoting homeopathy. He earned a pharmacy degree from North Dakota State University in 1963 and later received a Master Herbalist Diploma from Dominion Herbal College. Mindell has published more than 50 books, including the widely known Earl Mindell's Vitamin Bible, first published in 1979. His writings have attracted substantial criticism from scientists and nutrition experts, who have challenged the accuracy and evidentiary basis of many of his health claims. His statements about vitamins, herbal remedies, superoxide dismutase, and goji juice have been particularly controversial. Mindell has also faced scrutiny over his Ph.D. from Pacific Western University, an unaccredited institution. Despite the criticism, his books have remained influential in the popular nutrition and alternative health market, where he has promoted dietary supplements and natural approaches to wellness.

[Kevin M. Labadessa · Rating 5 out of 5]

My grandmother bought me this book when I was 12 years old. I read it many times and it no doubt played a role in my fascination with health and natural medicine. This book is a classic!
