Many people who are prescribed medication for psychiatric
conditions/symptoms (depression, anxiety, insomnia, bipolar
illness, panic attacks, and schizophrenia) call our office
seeking alternative ways to address their issues that do not
involve pharmaceutical drugs. At the very least, they wish to
decrease their drug regimens, which cause so many unwanted side
effects.
Adverse effects of psychiatric medication include :
|
- Lightheadedness
- Parkinsonian syndromes
- Erectile dysfunction
- Inability to achieve orgasm
- Decreased libido
- Diabetes / elevated blood sugar
|
Many nutritional and metabolic factors affect psychological
function and all of them can readily be investigated and then
optimized to achieve a much more even chemical balance, thereby
reducing or eliminating the need for medication.
