“… a powerful summary of integrative nutritional approaches and underlying biomechansims of disease for the more common neurodegenerative diseases. This book is indispensable as we face the increasing incidence of neurodegenerative diseases in our aging population.”

Eleanor Hynote, MD President-Elect American College for Advancement in Medicine

 

“This book is required reading for any practitioner of integrative medicine who treats neurological patients. Dr. Kurn and Shook’s treatment recommendations are well-documented and in keeping with the highest quality standards of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). The chapters are clearly organized, and the treatment summaries at the end of each chapter make it easy to quickly design a program of nutritional therapy and supplements for your patients.”

Brian Bouch, MD Integrative physician and instructor in Medical Acupuncture, UCLA Medical Acupuncture for Physicians course

 

"This is truly an amazing book. Dr Kurn presents four mechanisms for neurodegenerative disorders. He clearly shows how diet, vitamins, herbs and supplements have a place in the treatment of a number of disorders. This is an extremely well referenced book and easily takes its place in the field of integrated medicine."

Joel Alter, DO Physician-Healer

 

"This is an eminently useful book for the clinician seeking an integrated understanding and approach to neurologic disorders. Each chapter gives a succinct appraisal of a condition from a biomedical perspective, and then does the hard work of delving into (and making sense of) the mountains of scientific inquiry surrounding it, with special regard to nutrient/herb supplementation. The work is given even more weight by that fact that Dr. Kurn is himself a gifted clinician, with 27 years of experience in his field. Not merely a literature review (which would be welcome enough!), each chapter topic--migraine, Parkinson's, Alzheimers, etc--holds the fruits of his practice. We're lucky to have it."

Lily Mazzarella, MS Clinical Herblist/Nutritionist

 

"This book is a great review of molecular biology of neurological disorders. I find the information very pertinent to my field of internal medicine as well as neurology. The information is written in an elegant, often poetic style making use of a sophisticated vocabulary. I cannot rate this book highly enough as a well referenced text for physicians in neurology as well as other medical specialities. I was particularly impressed with the chapter on atherosclerosis and stroke as it related directly to my internal medicine practice. Strongly recommended!"
