Book Summary
A guide to herbal and holistic medicine for brain health and neurologic disorders Provides detailed herbal, antioxidant and nutritional strategies for Alzheimers, Parkinsons, multiple sclerosis, stroke, migraine and seizures Supported by scientific studies and years of successful clinical practice Discusses potential side effects, counter-indications and the proper dosages to reduce symptoms, slow disease progression and lessen the chances of recurrence. Numerous medical journals have published studies supporting the use of herbs and nutrients in the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders. Yet in practice most neurologists rarely include them as part of their protocols. In this practical guide, Sidney Kurn, M. D. and Sheryl Shook, Ph. D., explain how to safely and easily incorporate herbs, antioxidants and nutritional supplements into the standard conventional treatments for 6 common neurologic disorders: Alzheimers, Parkinsons, multiple sclerosis, stroke, migraine and seizures. For each condition, the authors provide detailed strategies supported by scientific evidence and years of successful clinical practice. They examine the biochemical role of each recommended herb, nutrient or antioxidant and discuss potential side effects, counter-indications and proper dosages to reduce symptoms, slow disease progression, and--in the case of stroke, migraine and seizures--lessen the chances of recurrence. The authors explore the nutrient deficiencies and physiological mechanisms, including inflammation, heavy metal toxicity and mitochondrial dysfunction, that can cause oxidative injuries and initiate neurologic disorders. They reveal which common substances, such as aspartame and glutamate, can trigger these mechanisms at the cellular level and recommend specific herbs and antioxidants, such as turmeric, cannabinoids, resveratrol and N-acetyl cysteine, to counteract their effects. They discuss the importance of sleep to overall well-being, especially for those suffering from neurologic disorders and offer tips to help ensure a good nights sleep.
