Eva Edelman’s book is the gold standard in natural medicine for the physical and emotional disorders considered ‘mental’. Far from being pseudoscience, she depends on a host of studies, new and old, from dependable doctors, researchers, and important pioneering figures in the field of natural medicine and orthomolecular psychiatry, including Abram Hoffer, MD, Carl Pfeiffer, MD, William Philpott, MD, Hyla Cass, MD, William Walsh, PhD, and the list would go on for many paragraphs or pages.
Ms. Edelman has an appropriate way of describing the nature of experimental results by experiment rather than batching them together and making unjustified or overly broad claims. Her statements are backed-up by research, as you can see in her statements. Conventional psychiatry likes to use pharmaceutical studies as back-up, but Big Pharma can reject studies that don’t demonstrate what it wants, and just not publish them. It effectively performs anti-science--trying to prove something over and over again despite evidence to the contrary, and refusing to use the contrary evidence to go deeper and find out what is actually happening.
Nutrients work well in the human body, naturally needed by our various systems. Natural Healing for Schizophrenia and Other Common Mental Disorders stands far above the field of conventional medicine with its non-fundamental cookbook prescriptions that may not even have theoretical validity.
This easy-to-read encyclopedic resource should be used in applied psychiatry and well as medical schools. It delves into the variety of functions for the various key and minor nutrients, dietary factors, food sources of specific vitamins and minerals, bio-types as model for treatment , and fascinating research on the benefits of nutrients that could lead the way to recovering the field of psychiatry from the pharmaceutical mess it is now in.
If you want to take the field of psychiatry from its current ineffective, corrupted state to a metabolically valid therapeutic model and methodology based on the needs and response of the human system, this book will get you there, or at least started and well along the way. It will inform you appropriately, provide ample resources to develop your knowledge base, and specifics on what nutrients do for different disorders and body systems. It also includes appropriate caveats for people using this or any other approach, as is required for professionals or anyone approaching these issues.
She talks about research, general levels of need, combinations of nutrients, their functions, auxiliary effects, how some drugs work and why, and pioneering figures in the field via their discoveries and careers in medicine.
Naturally, when a new field of understanding comes on board, individuals who are strong believers in or who profit from the old system will resist and even rail against new knowledge that makes the old obsolete. Ms. Edelman has done a masterful job of citing the research, organizing the book into digestible sections, and presenting it in a plain and pleasing format that will help lead the field of mental health out of the dark reaches it now inhabits.
From personal experience in using this approach, it not only works but works better than I could have imagined. I wouldn’t listen to detractors who exhibit little or no knowledge and rely on ‘authorities’ only slightly more knowledgeable than they.
Though this book is priced under $40, it could very well be worth $40,000 by helping a person reclaim their mental function and lives AND change their life trajectory from disease, drugs, doctors, and disability to one of health, happiness, wholeness, and harmony with all that holds for them. Buy the book and you will see what I mean.
I should say, this is more of a natural encyclopedia for nutritional understanding, science, and treatment of ‘ mental disorders’, so it is not like a conventional book, which have lots of uninterrupted text, chapters that drone on, monotonous visuals, and great opportunities to get lost and never get back to your desired place.
Natural Healing for Schizophrenia and Other Common Mental Disorders is formatted more appropriately for the human brain, with many sub-sections and smaller chunks of information on every page, so the curious neophyte or well-honed scientific mind can take it in bite-sized chunks for digestion or analysis.
Thank you, Ms. Edelman for providing a gold standard for information on how to recover from schizophrenia and rejoin the mainstream of life. Natural Healing for Schizophrenia should eventually push this field into the highlands of health, recovery, and fuller lives.
On a scale of 1-5 stars, I’d give it a 10 but 100 might be closer to the truth, and I’d be willing to talk to anyone about it.
Don’t mess around with your life or those of loved ones. Get scientifically-informed professional guidance. Get the book. Just get the book. You’ll see why when you get it and never regret it. Once in a while, in your life, you may meet someone who can help you dramatically move your life forward. Eva Edelman, through this book, is such a stellar resource.
