I have been in the nutritional healthcare field for over 14 years and the information contained in this book is critical to solving the problems unanswered by modern medicine. Let's face it, if your brain doesn't work well, your life doesn't work well.
Dr. Kharrazian has done a masterful job putting together the pieces of the puzzle of brain dysfunction and what inevitably follows, health dysfunction.
