Summary: Great science in plain English
Review: I love this book. In my job I need technical and reference information. I find it in the Appendix, the sections for "chemistry buffs" and its the many scientific and Internet references. I use the book not only to learn about vitamin E, but also to get background information on nutrition, diet, aging, exercise and many diseases. I find it in plain English and is fun to read, full of real life stories and, something you do not find in health books, real humor.

Summary: Such a wonderful book
Review: Thank you you for such a wonderful book, The Vitamin E Factor. I have learned so much I am again reading it for the third time. I only wish that every person would read this book. When you have an updated version I would hope you would let me know. Again, Thanks for such a well written book. Yes, some of the information was repetitive, but sometimes we need to read it several times to absorb all the information. Debra M. Kowalski, Dayville, Oregon

Summary: Great science in plain English
Review: The Vitamin E Factor is an excellent compendium about vitamin E. It is a very readable book and people not familiar with vitamin E and its many benefits can enjoy and benefit from it. Yet this book has great depth in the discussion of research with a comprehensive list of supporting scientific papers, books and Internet resources that can benefit scientists and physicians. I strongly recommend The Vitamin E Factor to my colleagues and health professionals.

Summary: The most FANTASTIC book on Vitamin E I ever read
Review: This is a fascinating book, wonderfully written and understandable to everyone that had a high school education. It is so interesting and easy-to-read that drew so much of my attention and finished it within the same day I bought it. I found out how to correctly use vitamin E and how to manage my disease. I learned that vitamin E is not only alpha-tocopherol (the ingredient listed in the label of vitamin E supplements). Vitamin E is a complex of different ingredients (tocopherols and tocotrienols) that are not included in most of the supplements that I usually buy from the supermarket. My disease needed gamma-tocopherol and tocotrienols more than it needed alpha-tocopherol. If you have a family history, or if you are suffering from any disease, you should read it, chances are, that you will learn ways to improve your symptoms. There is no other reference in the market, so concise, so informative than this book. It is simply a GREAT reference. I wish I could give it six stars in stead of five. I wish each vitamin had a book like this.
