Bipolar and Schizophrenia Recovery

FOOD IS MEDICINE

“Let food by they medicine and medicine be thy food.” Hippocrates

Many people can recover from bipolar disorders, schizophrenia, and many other chronic illnesses by using food as medicine.

Fasting or a very low protein, whole food, plant-based lifestyle can eliminate hallucinations and delusions for many people. Many people can recover by continuing on a lower protein, whole food, plant-based lifestyle.

If people are on medication it is very important to work with their own provider and not to stop or reduce medication on their own. Psychotropic medications most always need to be tapered. They need to be tapered especially slowly at the end when usually minute amounts are needed which are much smaller than the smallest pill before they are discontinued. It is very important for a person to work with their own provider and not to stop or reduce medication on their own.

A whole food, plant-based lifestyle can prevent and reverse most chronic illnesses.

Many people can recover from heart disease with a low fat, whole food, plant-based lifestyle as shown by Dean Ornish, M.D., Caldwell Esselstyn Jr, M.D. and many other cardiologists some of whom have opened their own restaurants. Medicare and most insurances cover Dr. Ornish’s program for reversing heart disease. Just last year Ornish’s study showed many people can reverse early Alzheimer’s.

90% of people can prevent Alzheimer’s and the most important factor is a whole food, plant-based lifestyle report Drs Dean and Ayesha Sherzai.

This eBook shares research and model programs including little known large international research which showed 70% of persons with schizophrenia can do well. This research was done over a period of 30 years at a hospital that had a staff of 500 physicians. Alan Cott, M.D. visited this hospital and did a replication study with similar dramatic results at Gracie Square Hospital in New York.

Use the principles in this eBook as well as the resources and links to help yourself, your loved ones and friends, patients, community, and the world.
