About the Author

The author, Joel Bressler, BS pharmacy, is a retired pharmacist and nutritionist. Almost forty years ago, when he was in active practice, Mr. Bressler became interested in nutrition as both adjunctive and alternative methods of treating various diseases. He read countless articles written by medical and nonmedical experts on the subject and began recommending nutritional substances to his clients, often achieving quite remarkable results over the years. He believes that doctors should use the benefits that nutrition has to offer in order to prevent all kinds of illness. This is the true meaning of health care. This is his second book on the subject.
