DHA (Docoshexaenoic Acid): The Magnificent Marine Oil

This book is easy to read. The author describes the various stages of digestion, the role that friendly bacteria plays in digestion, and discusses probiotic treatment options for various illnesses. However, there is a chapter that recommends how to buy probiotics. I realized that it only leads to one brand of friendly bacteria, which happens to endorse the book. Most of the other probiotic brands are ruled out through various comments. I made the mistake and bought the recommended strand, thinking they were the best and there were no other options available. Be aware that other stuff is out there, and the information in the book doesn't give an objective picture of what to buy.

Perfect! Just what I was looking for. Lots of information in a small easy to read pamphlet. Good starting point for more in depth research.

Needing to do some research on the subject of DHA, I selected this book without any expectations. However, I was very pleased by the author's apparent knowledge of the subject matter, and her ability to explain fairly complicated concepts without being tedious or condescending. DHA as a nutritional supplement isn't all that well-known as yet, but I feel sure it will become a household word in the near future. As that time approaches, and people want to learn more on the subject, this author should prove to be an excellent resource. I have read this book pretty carefully and thoroughly, and have learned a lot from it. I will be buying more of her books on other subjects.
