Dettagli

Doctor Paolo Giordo explains to us why vitamin C is so essential for daily well-being and what the appropriate dosages are. It goes into the merits of the false myths linked to its use - such as the idea that it can be toxic - and describes the various pathologies that can be treated with an adequate intake: from cancer to bacterial and viral infections, from influenza to stress, from atherosclerosis to AIDS, and of course scurvy, a manifestation of its extreme deficiency. The author also does not fail to address issues such as cholesterol, depression and inflammation. The book also includes a more practical section, which explains how to best preserve vitamin C in foods and how to use supplements. Everything is accompanied by a recipe book and an extensive bibliography.
