Download or read book Light on Schizophrenia written by Dr Hoffer and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-14 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Light on Schizophrenia It is well documented that nutrient deficiencies, nutrient dependencies, and environmental toxins such as heavy metals, contribute to the pathogenesis of mental health disorders. Ignoring this reality means missing out on the opportunity to make the lives of people with schizophrenia better. Conventional treatments for schizophrenia may not help or may even make things worse. Many patients and caregivers want more than just medications. They want to understand WHY things are the way they are. Light on Schizophrenia clearly lays out the causes and contributors to schizophrenia from the Orthomolecular perspective, and it offers solutions. "Orthomolecular" refers to the roles of vitamins, minerals and other essential molecules in the body. This book is an update to Dr. Abram Hoffer's 2007 book, Orthomolecular Treatment for Schizophrenia and Other Mental Illnesses: A Guide for Practitioners. It contains Dr. Hoffer's chronicles of his 57 years of experience and success in treating schizophrenia patients; it also integrates current knowledge on the causes and moderators of schizophrenia. Light on Schizophrenia contains valuable new contributions from James Greenblatt, MD, and Jonathan Prousky, ND. Both doctors have decades of clinical experience working with patients with schizophrenia and other mental illnesses. This is the only book to provide a comprehensive look at the Orthomolecular approach to schizophrenia.

Download or read book Natural Healing for Schizophrenia written by Eva Edelman and published by . This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compendium of alternative nutrient treatments used to address schizophrenic symptoms in a number of documented cases offering an interesting albeit controversial approach to mental health.

It includes extensive reference to relevant studies. Also covered are "biotypes," metal overload, physical illnesses that may mimic schizophrenia, depression, neurotransmitters, toxicity, and a response to criticism. The presentation is balanced by a good dose of disclaimers emphasizing that the book is not a treatment guide but rather an educational resource. The appendices supply guidance on testing, epidemiology, and resources. Lacks an index. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Download or read book Doctor Yourself written by Andrew W. Saul and published by Basic Health Publications, Inc.. This book was released on 2003 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Don’t bother looking in the history books for what has killed the most Americans. Look instead at your dinner table. We eat too much of the wrong foods and not enough of the right foods. Scientific research continually indicates nationwide vitamin and mineral deficiencies in our country, and we spend over a trillion dollars each year on disease care. Is it any surprise that doctors consistently place among the very highest incomes?Andrew Saul has seen enough of this situation, and in Doctor Yourself, he gives you the power you need to change it. Citing numerous scientific evidence, as well as case studies from his decades of practice, Dr. Saul explodes the myth that an army of medical specialists and pharmaceutical drugs are necessary to maintain our health. The human body evolved to live well and fight off disease on a supply of only a dozen or so essential nutrients. Unfortunately, modern meat-laden, high-sugar diets provide catastrophically inadequate levels of those nutrients. Using the guidelines and protocols for diet and vitamin megadosing laid out in Doctor Yourself, you can not only prevent disease from getting a foothold in the first place, but also literally cure yourself of illnesses already in progress without resorting to drugs or surgery.One of the most comprehensive guides to nutritional therapy ever published, Doctor Yourself provides proven methods for combating almost every possible health condition-from asthma and Alzheimer’s disease to cancer, depression, heart disease, and more-all presented in Dr. Saul’s unforgettable style. Whether he’s delivering commonsense tips on subjects such as weight loss and longevity or praising the healthy glow of a carotene tan, Dr. Saul takes the starch out of healthcare and makes taking charge of your family’s health an experience both valuable and fun.

Download or read book Vitamin B 3 and Schizophrenia written by Abram Hoffer and published by Kingston, Ont. : Quarry Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New hope for the victims of schizophrenia and the friends of schizophrenics Dr. Abram Hoffer pioneered the use of Vitamin B-3 (niacin) as a treatment for various schizophrenias starting in 1952 and has proven over a long series of experiments and case studies that this treatment can double the natural or spontaneous recovery rate. Despite these conclusive findings, the American Psychiatric Association and international drug companies have shown no enthusiasm for such vitamin treatments, promoting instead the use of high-priced tranquilizers and antidepressants which can be patented (unlike vitamins) and sold at high cost. This is the story of Dr. Hoffer's quest to provide natural, effective treatment for schizophrenics; this is also the story of schizophrenic patients who have been healed by vitamin treatment.
