Joan Mathews Larson, orthomolecular psychiatry uses chemicals in the body

http://fatnews.com/ Hi, this is Larry Hobbs @ FatNews.com.

For 30 years, Joan Mathews Larson, PhD has been treating addiction, anxiety and depression with natural supplements in order to correct the underlying biochemical problems which cause these conditions.

In this video clip, she notes that the definition of orthomolecular medicine, or orthomolecular psychiatry, is the treatment of mental disease by providing the body with optimum levels of substances which are normally present in the body.

"The definition of orthomolecular medicine [ as defined by Linus Pauling, Ph.D., a chemist who won two Nobel prizes ]

"The treatment of mental disease by provision of the optimum molecular environment for the mind, especially optimum concentrations of substances normally present in the brain.

"That's the key, those last four words [ that is, 'substances normally present in the brain' . ]

"Traditional treatment has not been concerned at all with the wipe out of these substances

" and yet these are the very substances that keep us sane.

" what we are being told by Big Pharma is that we need more drugs."

Dr. Larson is the author of "7 Weeks to Sobriety", "Depression Free", and "7 Weeks to Emotional Healing".
