Dr. Tedde M Rinker: Recommend readingThe Brain Wellness Plan

While this book may be a bit loaded with biochemistry for the tastes of the average reader, it is an excellent book if you want to understand how the brain works best and what kinds of supplements, vitamins and nutients will help keep it functioning well. It is a good review for anyone in the medical field too, especially those wanting to provide a balanced integrative health approach to their family or general practice.

The most important point is preventing degeneration of brain function over time, and while it will appear complex at first, attempting to understand and apply it could save your brain and keep you out of a long term care facility in the future.

snake oil salesmen

This book is a crock of unsubstantiated horse manure and the authors are modern day snake oil salesmen!! These types of practitioners and authors take advantage of other peoples misfortunes just to make a buck - DISGUSTING AND UNETHICAL

Good book / bad doctor? You decide.

Last year I began to exhibit symptoms, trembling right hand, body stiffness, that seemed vaguely consistant with Parkinsons Disease. I read this book and was pleased with the open-mindedness of Dr. Lombard and his use of wholistic treatments of severe neurological / brain conditions. I made an appointment to see him in his office. After a brief interview he performed some mobility / muscle tests on me and boldly pronounced that I had Parkinsons Disease. Dr Lombard gave me a prescription medication to begin my treatment and I went home in a state of shock. My girlfriend, who had accompanied me to the appointment was in tears. I tried not to let anyone know of the diagnosis but before long I was receiving messages of profound condolences from friends and co-workers.

I filled the prescription he gave me and began researching Parkinsons. After 3 sleepless nights full of terrible nightmares I called Dr Lombard. He said it must be the medication so he prescribed another one. That too gave me terrible nightmares. Then he told me to try drinking a few glasses of wine to see if that stopped the trembling in my right hand. It did. He told me to come back into his office. By then 3 weeks had passed. During that visit he told me that perhaps I didn't have Parkinsons Disease after all and he gave me another prescription for the trembling in my hand. That medication affected my blood pressure. What's going on? I had to seek a second opinion, more tests, insurance claims, etc. The conclusion? I do not have anything wrong with me except some nervous tension and I am on no medication.
