Abram Hoffer and Andrew W. Saul are experts in the field of nutrition, and Orthomolecular Medicine for Everyone is an authoritative guide to the use of megavitamin treatments for a wide range of conditions. The authors state unequivocally that "restoring health must be done nutritionally, not pharmacologically." What this book does very well is to make nutrition and its effects on health understandable. If the government is serious about making health care affordable for everyone, they need look no further than this book." (Townsend Letter for Doctors) About the Author Born on a Saskatchewan farm in 1917, Abram Hoffer graduated with a B.S. in agriculture from the University of Saskatchewan in 1938. He also has a Master’s Degree in agricultural chemistry and a Ph.D. in biochemistry. He got his M.D. from the University of Toronto in 1949 and completed psychiatric training in 1954. His early work let to the use of vitamin B3 in treating schizophrenia and other psychiatric conditions and he demonstrated the effectiveness of niacin as an anti-cholesterol treatment.

  • Complementary and Alternative Medicine
    Complementary and Alternative Medicine Policy Number: Original Effective Date: MM.12.013 01/01/2014 Line(s) of Business: Current Effective Date: HMO; PPO 11/17/2017 Section: Miscellaneous Place(s) of Service: Outpatient I. Description Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), also called non-traditional medicine, is a group of diverse medical and healthcare systems, practices and products that are not typically considered to be a part of traditional Western medicine (i.e., conventional medicine). This policy addresses services performed by CAM providers such as naturopaths, chiropractors and acupuncturists. Complementary medicine generally refers to using a non-traditional approach together with conventional medicine. Alternative medicine refers to using a non-traditional approach in place of conventional medicine. Various CAM assessments and therapies are supported by some degree of scientific evidence and are intended to reduce disease-based symptoms and to improve health outcomes. However, due to a lack of well-designed scientific studies and/or peer reviewed literature many CAM therapies have not been shown to improve health outcomes over conventional therapies. II. Criteria/Guidelines A CAM service or procedure is covered (subject to Limitations and Administrative Guidelines) when all of the following criteria are met: A. It meets the definition of medical necessity as specified in Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS) Section 432: 1. It is for the purpose of treating a medical condition. 2. It is the most appropriate delivery or level of service, considering potential benefits and harms to the patient; 3. It is known to be effective in improving health outcomes; provided that: a. Effectiveness is determined first by scientific evidence; b.

  • A Review of a Culture's Catalyst: Historical Encounters with Peyote and the Native American Church in Canada
    IK: Other Ways of Knowing Book Review A Review of A Culture’s Catalyst: Historical Encounters with Peyote and the Native American Church in Canada Book Review by Kevin Feeney PhD. JD, Central Washington University A Culture’s Catalyst: Historical Encounters with Peyote and the Native American Church in Canada by Kahan, Fannie, edited by Erika Dyck. 2016. Winnipeg, MB: University of Manitoba Press. 130 pp. Paperback $27.95. ISBN 978-0887558146 doi 10.18113/P8ik360543 Fannie Kahan’s new book, A Culture’s Catalyst, provides a novel glimpse into an era when psychedelic research was at its peak, and when social fears about psychedelics were limited to the imagined orgies of peyote cults. Kahan’s original manuscript was completed back in 1963, but failed efforts at finding a publisher left the book gathering dust in the archives of the author’s brother, Abram Hoffer. The manuscript remained buried in papers until it was uncovered by historian Erika Dyck during investigations on the history of psychedelic research in Canada. Dyck has brought this manuscript to light by editing it for clarity and uniformity, and providing an in-depth introduction contextualizing Kahan’s work within the political landscape of the 1950s and early 1960s. Kahan’s book is largely built around a Native American Church peyote ceremony held during 1956 in North Battleford, Sasketchewan. A handful of White scientists attended the ceremony, including book contributors Duncan Blewett, Abram Hoffer, Humphry Osmond, and Teodoro Weckowicz. Kahan, who is a journalist by training, has assembled and presented what might best be characterized as a defense of peyotism, the religious use of peyote, with a text that veers between reporting and editorializing.

    Anxiety or Depression A new look at mental health issues from an Applied Kinesiology perspective Chris Astill-Smith D.O., N.D. Diplomate ICAK Marlow UK chris@[email protected] Prior to the COVID-19 global pandemic, the World Health Organization (WHO) reported that 44 million people in the European region suffer from depression and 37 million suffer from anxiety. High unemployment, social distancing requirements, isolation from family and friends, as well as other changes in response to the coronavirus crisis, have led to extra varying levels of uncertainty, fear and anxiety.* *https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/depression If you look actually at the statistics on the larger-selling categories of drugs, both anti- psychotics and antidepressants rank in the top five in terms of sales and profit. It is fairly obvious there is a huge incentive there. Vitamin P We all get anxious and depressed everyday for periods of time. But for most of us they lift when the event is over and we move on to other emotions hopefully more positive ones.

This is probably indicative of a biochemical imbalance in our neurotransmitter and / or hormonal systems.

    July 2002 Issue | Abram Hoffer, MD, PhD Dr. Jeffrey Bland - http://jeffreybland.com July 2002 Issue | Abram Hoffer, MD, PhD http://jeffreybland.com/knowledgebase/july-2002-issue-abram-hoffer-md-phd/ DOWNLOAD AUDIO | Welcome to Functional Medicine Update for July 2002. This month I will follow up on a theme from our Ninth International Symposium on Functional Medicine, which we held in May at the Diplomat Hotel and Spa in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. I refer to orthomolecular psychiatry, a topic Dr. Abram Hoffer brought to our attention at the symposium. Together with Dr. Linus Pauling, Dr. Hoffer was an originator of that field. I begin with a quote from an article titled "Orthomolecular Psychiatry," which was published in Science magazine in 1968.1 Dr. Pauling, the principal author of that article, won two Nobel Prizes, one for chemistry and one for peace. "The methods principally used now for treating patients with mental disease are psychotherapy (psychoanalysis and related efforts to provide insight and to decrease environmental stress), chemotherapy (mainly with the use of powerful synthetic drugs, such as chlorpromazine, or powerful natural products from plants, such as reserpine), and convulsive or shock therapy (electroconvulsive therapy, insulin coma therapy, pentylenetetraze! shock therapy). I have reached the conclusion, through arguments summarized in the following paragraphs, that another general method or treatment, which may be called orthomolecular therapy, may be found to be of great value, and may turn out to be the best
