This review is from: Vitamin B-3 and Schizophrenia: Discovery, Recovery, Controversy (Paperback)

this book is a must for every psychiatrist, and anyone who is familiar with someone who is sick with that disease, and try to find a real natural way of treating schizophrenia from the world's best orthomolecularist who treated thousands of patients of that disease with the principles that described very simple in that book.my own expirience with my schizophrenic patients showed good resoults.

1.0 out of 5 stars I don't need this book, March 6, 2002

This review is from: Vitamin B-3 and Schizophrenia: Discovery, Recovery, Controversy (Paperback)

I bought this book but after reading it I realized I don't need it. I can tell you right now what the book about. This book shows that vitamin B3 prevents relapses of schizophrenics and it helps prevent suicide. That's it. That's everything I learned about this book. If you want to start niacin, mimimum dosage is 3grams a day and max is 6grams a day. This book is good but it didn't cure me. I still have the disease. It just shows the importance of B3: lower risk of relapse and suicide. This book didn't help me get better. To get better I contacted former patients of Dr.Hoffer and they told me what they did. The vitamins help but a diet is more important...
