A Revolution in Health through Nutritional Biochemistry A REVOLUTION IN HEALTH THROUGH NUTRITIONAL BIOCHEMISTRY gives hope to the millions who have visited endless series of doctors but still have limited understanding of their symptoms or the reason for their disease. Drs. Neustadt and Pieczenik teach the reader that sophisticated biochemical testing can identify the underlying biochemical abnormalities causing fatigue, depression, seizure disorders, osteoporosis, adult-onset asthma and other diseases that decrease quality of life and lead to early death. In simple, easy-to-understand language, the authors describe the underlying biochemistry and nutritional deficiencies that cause disease, and how the underlying causes of symptoms can be corrected with targeted nutrient therapies. By integrating the best of conventional and integrative medicine with the most advanced biochemical testing, the cause of disease is finally uncovered, paving the way for a treatment plan as unique as the patient. They also hope to encourage the conventional medical system to teach and implement this approach to reduce the overdependence on pharmaceuticals and our country's enormous physical and financial health care burden. Book Review “The principles set out in this book are at the same time both ancient and revolutionary. Ancient because they have been known and followed for thousands of years, but revolutionary in our time because they run counter to the approach to health with which all of us have grown up. The principles are simple: 1) most medical approaches treat symptoms not causes; 2) most pharmaceuticals and medicines are intended to destroy something, not add something; 3) with our modern lives and diet, most people are lacking one or more things essential to the proper functioning of the body and need to add them, both to eliminate existing problems and to maintain optimum health. These principles are always a supplement, sometimes an alternative, to conventional medicine. I cite my own successful experience that they work when conventional treatments have not done so.” —John W. Hanes, Jr., Former Director, Squibb Corp.
