Believing that drugs and psychoanalysis were not always the best course of treatment for a variety of mental illnesses, Dr. Carl Pfeiffer began an extensive program of research into the causes and treatment of mental illness, and in 1973 opened the Brain Bio Center in Princeton, New Jersey. Here, with a team of scientists, he found that many psychological problems can be traced to biochemical imbalances in the body. With these patients, he achieved unprecedented success in treating a wide range of mental problems by adjusting diet and providing specific nutritional supplements for those conditions where deficiences exist. This book documents his approach. Each year, thousands of people are diagnosed as schizophrenic; many more suffer from depression, anxiety, and phobias. Dr. Pfeiffer's methods of treatment presented in Nutrition and Mental Illness are a valuable adjunct to traditional therapies, and can bring hope of real wellness to many of those who suffer.
This little book would be a life saver for many if they knew about it. The doctor/researcher that wrote it was well ahead of his time. When he was coming up through psychiatry, methods of treating mental illness were pretty barbaric and did not 'fix' anyone afflicted--they usually made them worse off. The author had a feeling there was something all of the psych docs and researchers were missing. His research and RESULTS from administering a nutrition-based treatment program were proof of a broken, failed mental health system. It is amazing how much we Americans are vitamin and mineral deficient. Millions here suffer unnecessarily. Our corporate-style agriculture has stripped our once fertile lands of life-sustaining vitamins and minerals. Many of us are walking around feeling like crap and our doctors just blow us off or prescribe a litany of pills. And to no avail. Few of these so-called 'medical practitioners' (yes, it is a practice, not a science) know how nutrition and mental health are so inextricably linked. Any of you with even the slightest issues with depression, anxiety, or mental health issues will tremendously benefit from owning this life-changing book. Recently, a simple mix of B-6, zinc and methionine recommended in this simple, yet sage book saved my life. And to think, allllll these years I pointlessly suffered due to doctors' ignorance, lousy agricultural practices and a lack of a vitamin, a minerals and one enzyme. Go science!!!!!!!!!Sincerely,Sir Feeling Great
