Nutrition and Psychiatry/Whole Psychiatry

[Kasia]

I've decided to set up a new topic.

Dr. Robert Hedaya practices what he calls “whole psychiatry.”New patients undergo a four-hour workup, in which Hedaya examines all the factors that have combined to cause a break in a person’s mental health. Unlike his colleagues in mainstream psychiatry, he conducts extensive lab work to look for disruptions in basic body systems that might manifest as mental illness, while also looking into psychological, social, and spiritual factors.

I wish there were more such psychiatrists.

Maybe one day it would be good to have him on The Health and wellness show.

Excellent! I'll check the comments and get a copy of one book.

Thank you.

There are some unfavorable comments - written, I guess, by complainers seeking easy and quick soluctions with no sacrifice.
I have not read his books, but I've only listened a couple of interviews with him and he seems to be a really open-minded person.
