| Recommended- The UltraMind Solution Check out the UltraMind Solution by Dr. Mark Hyman, his new book on the mind-body connection. A leader in the emerging field of Functional Medicine, Dr. Hyman explores how healing the body benefits the brain. The culmination of twenty years of research on what makes the brain happy, focused. and calm. He asserts that genetics interact with our environment to create systemic imbalances that affect the brain. The imbalances caused by poor diet, allergens, infections, toxins, and stress. He gives an example of how streptococcal bacteria releases toxins that produce inflammation in the brain of someone with OCD. Treat the infection with antibiotics, inflammation in the brain is reduced, OCD goes away. He states in the book that depression is not a case of prozac deficiency, and that the outdated method of western medicine attempts to medicate the symptoms without addressing the cause from a holistic approach. Case in point how we've cut up specialties. The Infections specialist would have never clued into the streptococcal infection causing the OCD that the mental health specialist is addressing with anti-depressants, who is also unaware on what is causing the illness. The book lays out a program to help a person improve the quality of their life, naturally. A fascinating, thought provoking read for those of us dealing with illness.
