Book Reviews of Prescription for Drug Alternatives: All-Natural Options for Better Health without the Side Effects

Book Review: Right Book At The Right Time!
Summary: 5 Stars

I stumbled upon this book by accident and am I ever glad that I did! I was recently diagnosed with osteopenia after a hip fracture and have been researching all the osteoporosis meds available ... and coming away horrified at their side effects. I was just about to take my chances with a "do nothing" form of treatment when I found this book. I am SO relieved and excited to find the really good information contained in this book on this particular subject and all the alternatives that are mentioned. I have two other books by James F. Balch and they are well worn from use. This one is definitely joining the others as a must have in my home library. After researching my own medical conditions, I looked up those of a few other family members ... found just as much information available ... and was able to share it with them. Do not hesitate to purchase this book ... it is a great tool ... especially for those of us in the Second Act (50 years and older!) that are finding themselves being diagnosed with various medical conditions after living very healthy lives. There are a lot of "age related" things that we are faced with every day and this book gives us a breath of fresh air from the usual prescription meds our MDs are so quick to put us all on!
