The Natural Fat-Loss Pharmacy is a medically-researched guide to weight loss supplements that shows readers a way to lose weight and keep it off.

Many dieters find supplements confusing—or have concerns about the side effects and health issues surrounding diet aids. Now, Harry Preuss, M.D., one of the top researchers in the field, and Bill Gottlieb, former editor-in-chief of Rodale Books, share their expertise in this practical book to help dieters make informed decisions about weight loss supplements.
