Can fish, which has for so long been considered an essential part of our diet, really not be good for us? In Seafood Sense, Ken Babel sorts through fact and fiction to reveal the truth about the dangers and benefits of fish and other seafood. He explores in detail the reasons why the levels of mercury and other environmental toxins have risen in fish in recent times and exactly how these high levels can affect one's health.

Martin Zucker's User's Guide to Coenzyme Q10 is their most recent.

Available over the counter, it's touted as aiding with heart disease, guarding against cancer and other illnesses, combating gum disease and working on the nervous system and brain disorders. Additional titles in the series cover Vitamins and Minerals, St. John's Wort, Chromium and Glucosamine & Chondroitin. (Jul.)
