Our Book Provides the Questions and Answers You Need

If you’ve read this far, you’re probably dedicated to good nutrition. You understand that what you put in your body affects both your physical and emotional health.

You’re probably looking for nutritional solutions that will keep you strong and healthy. Or perhaps you know that your existing health issues can be addressed, at least in part, through good diet and informed supplementation.

Unfortunately, good intentions are not enough.

Learn the questions you need to ask your supplement providers


If you are serious about taking a proactive approach to your health—about making sense of the confusing world of nutrition and supplementation—Secrets of Supplements will give you the background information, facts, and questions you need to find optimal nutrition:

A Mini Course in Nutrition

In the first three chapters of the book, you will find a simple, readable, explanation of how your body functions. You will learn how nutrition affects your cells and why your health depends on the foods and supplements you ingest.

Nutritional Components

Next, you will learn about the nutritional components of the foods you eat:

  • Proteins and enzymes
  • Carbohydrates
  • Fats
  • Essential Fatty Acids
  • Vitamins
  • Minerals
  • Phytonutrients

You will find out what they are, what they do, how they interact with each other, and why we need them.

Choosing Supplements

The final chapter of the book explains all about supplements—the good, the bad, and the totally terrific. You will learn how to:

  • Plan your supplementation
  • Understand when you need qualified nutritional advice
  • Identify supplements that make unsupported claims or contain inferior ingredients
  • Find supplements made from the finest ingredients in the most available forms

A Plan of Action

Take the Ten Totally Terrific Questions from the last chapter when you go to your supplements providers. Ask them for answers. With the information and understanding you have gained from reading our book, listen carefully, and THEN make your buying decision.

Never again will you head to the health food store with only a vague idea of what you want and an optimistic faith that the products you buy will live up to their promises. Now you will be able to demand facts and understand their implications.

Down-to-Earth Guidance

Above all, Secrets of Supplements is intended to be an enjoyable, easy read. We have kept the tone light and conversational, and you’ll even enjoy the odd chuckle as you read through.

Our readers love some of the ways we have lightened a potentially heavy subject:

  • Personal Anecdotes at the beginning of each chapter help you to understand why we decided to become nutritional advocates and why you need totally terrific nutrition
  • Supplement Secrets on almost every page provide quick supplement facts that will surprise and inspire you
  • Bottom Line Secrets at the end of each chapter provide an effective summary of all you have learned so far

It has been our goal throughout the creation of this book to provide the vital tools you need to achieve optimal nutrition. Our readers all seem to agree that we have succeeded. Here are some of their comments:

When you read this book, you will get the best and the latest information you can possibly have on the subject of nutrition supplementation and how it applies to your everyday life.
