DESCRIPTION:
Nutraceuticals are complementary medicines of natural origin. Usually obtained from a food source, they are sold as isolated, purified components in pharmacological doses for specific ailments. The international market for nutraceuticals is rapidly expanding and new research is constantly being conducted. New products are appearing on the market, some with novel therapeutic applications.
This new edition of Nutraceuticals reflects these changes and has broadened its scope with coverage of:
- Monographs on 25 nutraceuticals including soy and tea
- Discussion of nutraceuticals according to disease state
and additional chapters on:
- Synergism and combination therapies
- Safety, adverse effects and interactions
- Quality issues
- Minor nutraceuticals
This authoritative text assesses the medical and scientific evidence for the use of nutraceuticals for prevention or treating important disease states. It will be of value to practising pharmacists, other healthcare professionals and complementary medicine practitioners.

'Finally, a nutraceuticals book on my shelf that is well-researched,
timely, highly credible, and well written...chapters 5-18 address
specific conditions. Topics include joint disease, heart-health, sleep,
sports, bone health, and so forth. Each are superbly researched and well
presented. To anyone who has anything to do with nutraceuticals be it
healthcare provider, product developer, or a regulator this book is a
must have...reading such a fine book on the subject of nutraceuticals
makes me proud to work in this field.'

'This book provides a very detailed review of published data to support
or disprove the use of complementary medicine. This resource is
excellent for healthcare professionals especially pharmacists,
nutritionists, and physicians who are frequently relied on by consumers
for recommendations regarding the use of nutraceuticals. The updated
version is needed because it provides the most recent published
literature...'

'This scholarly work on Nutraceuticals is a fascinating read. The
subject and literature are vast, and the author is to be complimented
for his through coverage...the book is recommended to researchers,
postgraduates and final year undergraduates whose studies encompass or
impinge upon the area, and to professionals in medicine, pharmacy,
nutrition and dietetics, who may have to respond to patients' requests
for information or who wish to recommend nutraceuticals. Manufacturers
and suppliers of nutraceuticals could also benefit from reading it.'

'The cross-relational approach to common conditions adds uniqueness to
the text...this text uniquely categorises the nutraceuticals by
co-morbid conditions, increasing its appeal for academic use.'
