I’m once again in a temporary limbo. My house is rented out
and still on the market. I packed up and am midway on an east to back west
move. I’ve been visiting family along the stages of my move. One quiet day at
my sister’s home prompted me to hike to the nearest mall and purchase Mark
Hyman, M.D.’s book The Ultramind Solution.
While the title suggest it being all about the brain, it is
and it isn’t. Hyman explains the basics
of Functional Medicine while expanding our understanding of the body as a system.
Seven Keys to recovery/ balance are outlined along with a six week protocol to “tune
up” the system; ultrasimplified, it is a “toxins out, nutrients in”
approach. A plethora of patient recovery
stories shows us that a “take charge” approach to the body often results in
dramatic elimination of symptoms.
Here’s another book worth a high recommendation. It needs to
be on your shelf. Buy it! Read it!
