Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Sorry I spent my money Comment: I was hoping for a real review. The book seems to compare the top 10 vitamin brand by brochure. I didn't like it! Customer Rating: Summary: an excellent guide for consumer Comment: This is an excellent guide for the consumers to choose quality supplements. It gives ratings (1 to 5 stars) to more than 1500 multivitamins in North America. Supplements from Kroger, Walgrees and costco, etc get a very low score of their products. I'm suprised. I highly recommend this book to someone who is taking supplements or considering taking supplements. Customer Rating: Summary: Nutritional Supplements book Comment: My daughter had the earlier addition of this book and I was impressed with the information provided. I think the author tries to give a factual summary of each product in an unbiased and fair manner. It gives the consumer an overview of each product so you know the quality of the product you will be choosing to use. I feel that it allows me to make a much more informed decision on my supplements. Customer Rating: Summary: Great Info, Lousy Font Comment: This book was recommended to me by my physician and I was very excited about my purchase. Sadly, the font is so small it should be illegal. I will never be able to read this book without great difficulty or a magnifying glass. I was definitely ripped off and do NOT recommend it. A total waste. Customer Rating: Summary: My review Comment: The guide really helps out in letting consumers know which products are worth your hard earned money. More Reviews
