Inhaltsangabe

Quick Access Patient Guide to Conditions, Herbs & Supplements offers exactly the same information as the consumer guide. However this version of the Quick Access Guides is aimed at the healthcare professional to keep in their office. When a patient is interested in more information on their condition and especially accurate information on self-help with herbs, supplements or different complementary remedies the doctor or nurse can reach for the Patient Guide. It comes in a larger spiral bound format which lays flat so that the information can be photocopied and handed to the patient.

Über diesen Titel

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Quick Access is an information database developed by Integrative Medicine Communications to allow health professionals from various educational and philosophical backgrounds access to a complete picture of the different approaches used to maintain health, treat disease or manage conditions. By bringing together many specialists, including pharmacists, doctors, nutritionists, herbalists and naturopaths, Quick Access has developed into an accurate, practical, essential and fully referenced database providing monographs on conditions, herbs and dietary supplements.

For the first time this information is being made available in a user-friendly format aimed directly at the general public. Quick Access Consumer Guide to Conditions, Herbs & Supplements offers authoritative, concise and readable information that makes sense of the most popular dietary supplements on the market. The book has three broad categories that allow quick answers to your questions:

Conditions - learn about a condition's signs and symptoms, what causes and what to expect from the doctor. This is followed by a number of treatment options including drugs, nutrition and the use of complementary therapies. Only those complementary therapies considered safe and that work well with conventional care have been included. As a result, herbs and dietary supplements receive a relatively large share of coverage.

Herbs - this section gives the best evidence to support the use of herbs in maintaining health or in treating conditions. You are able to search for a particular herb, using this section first, or look here for more information on an herb, having seen it listed under treatment options for a particular condition.

Supplements - this section offers substantive information on the use of dietary supplements in maintaining health or in managing conditions.
