The Oxford Book of Health Foods by J. G. Vaughan, P. A. Judd

A thorough guide to more than 100 popular herbs, grains, fruits and dietary supplements. Beautifully illustrated, each entry includes a description of the plant and its origin; culinary and nutritional value; popular claims and folklore; evidence of the plant's usefulness for health; and drug
interactions and other warnings.... From ginkgo to henna, to nettle, nuts, and popular ingredients in sports supplements, the book offers a good base for further research into foods and supplements that many of us ingest regularly but may not know much about."--Chicago Tribune
"A handy guide to more than a hundred types of food for which health claims have been made."--Catholic Library World
