Description:
PDR® for Nutritional Supplements™
From the publishers of the Physicians’ Desk Reference™ and the PDR® for Herbal Medicines™,
this new resource gathers solid clinical evidence from the available medical literature and presents it in a unique and authoritative manner.
Sweeping in scope, the PDR for Nutritional Supplements™
covers the full spectrum of nutritional
supplements including:
- Vitamins
- Minerals
- Amino acids
- Probiotics
- Metabolites
- Hormones
- Enzymes
- Cartilage products
Detailed monographs contain sections on relevant
contraindications, precautions, side effects, and
potential interactions with prescription and OTC
drugs. Finally, a clinical research summary which
synthesizes the findings of published studies on
each supplement, is an especially unique and
valuable feature.

the practitioner and the curious patient a wealth
of hard facts. Easy reading, well referenced. A
welcome addition to the classic PDR.”
Roger Guillemin, M.D., Ph.D.
Nobel Laureate in Physiology and Medicine
