Gene Spiller
It's a well-known fact that calcium plays an essential role in building and maintaining strong bones and teeth, but did you know that calcium is responsible as well for many of the metabolic functions that occur in your body -- functions that include blood clotting, muscle movement, and nerve cell communication? What's more, scientific research is beginning to uncover evidence that calcium also contributes to controlling blood pressure and offers protection against colon cancer, kidney stones, and breast cancer. Calcium may even help relieve the symptoms of premenstrual syndrome. In Calcium: Nature's Versatile Mineral, Drs. Spiller and Bruce cover everything from calcium's vital role in the body as a bone builder to its lesser-known functions in metabolic activity. And since calcium doesn't work alone, the authors provide information about its team players - phosphorus, vitamin D, and magnesium, among others. Remainder mark.

Denise Mortimore
Mortimore details the detrimental effects of the typical Western diet's overabundance of animal fat, salt, sugar, processed foods, stimulants, and chemicals. She also goes into detail defining a well-balanced diet - so much detail that only serious students of nutrition will attempt to absorb it all. For optimum health, "every meal should be a balance of carbohydrates, protein, and essential fatty acids, and at the same time attempt to achieve 80 percent alkaline-forming and neutral foods to 20 percent acid-forming foods," Mortimore recommends. One section includes descriptions of 39 important vitamins, minerals, and trace elements; how each is utilized; and where each is found in food. The book includes helpful chapters on how diet affects health, including allergies and food intolerance, blood sugar balance, and weight management. The "Nutritional Healing for Common Ailments" section covers almost 100 afflictions, describing the nutritional considerations, diet, and suggested supplements for each.
