Nutrition should be the first line of defense for a migraine
sufferer. This book describes nutritional approaches to both
prevention and treatment, based on orthomolecular medicine.
This book looks at how hospital care got on the wrong track, from
historical and economic perspectives. It then offers suggestions
for minimizing the risks of a hospital stay and ways to improve
your on experience. Good nutrition is the key - to boost your
immune system, speed recovery from illness, and reduce your need
for pharmaceuticals.
This book tells the story of how the controversy about vitamin C
has grown and continues even as increasing evidence demonstrates
the value of the orthomolecular approach. The story of vitamin C is
an exciting journey into the workings of science and medicine, the
intrigues of political and economic influences, and the
evolutionary history of humankind.Vitamin C is a simple molecule
with powerful effects. If you want to be healthy you should take
enough vitamin C. After reading this book you will know why and how
much.
How to Prevent and Treat Heart Disease Using Nutrition and Vitamin
Supplementation. .
Evidence-based medicine, the "gold standard" of medical decision
making, is increasingly unpopular with clinicians. They are right
to have reservations. EBM breaks the laws of so many disciplines
that it cannot be considered scientific or even rational. Decision
science and cybernetics show the disturbing consequences of such
flaws. EBM fosters marginally effective treatments, based on
population averages rather than individual need. Its mega-trials
are theoretically incapable of finding the causes of disease, yet
swallow up research funds. Ultimately, EBM cannot avoid risking
patients' health. It is time for medical practitioners to discard
EBM's tarnished gold standard, reclaim their clinical autonomy, and
provide individualised treatments to patients. This book explains
why and how.
This book describes an orthomolecular approach to cancer therapy.
It explains how dietary interventions can control cancer.
Enid Mumford (1924-2006) was a pioneer in the sociotechnical design
of computer systems. Prof Mumford's work successfully investigated
the introduction and implementation of computer systems by large
corporations and governments. Mumford's ETHICS approach to software
development emphasizes user participation, thus avoiding many of
the problems of introducing new systems. It takes a holistic view
of organizations, unifying both social and technological solutions.
This updated edition of Mumford's book, Designing Human Systems,
describes how modern agile programming techniques complement the
ETHICS method. Together, the two methods cover both user and
developer issues. This integrated approach offers an improved
methodology for successful software development projects.
Microevolution explains what cancer is, how it develops and how to
eradicate it. Cancer occurs in multi-celled organisms when cells
escape the body's controls and behave like their single-celled
ancestors. Such changes, triggered by oxidative damage, result in
faulty cell division. Animals and plants have developed ways to
stop their cells reverting to primitive forms. Hence, anticancer
substances are common throughout nature. Therapies based on these
take advantage of metabolic differences between cancer cells and
healthy cells, to destroy cancer while helping healthy cells.
Clinical trials are needed to test such non-toxic therapies.
Biological research suggests that cancer is a treatable condition.
Although current data is not sufficient to indicate the degree of
life extension achievable, many terminal patients might die of
other causes, before the cancer kills them. Cancer patients deserve
to be offered this opportunity.

The relationship between vitamin C and health is controversial.
Double Nobel Prize winner, Linus Pauling, argued that ascorbate
could prevent or cure heart disease, stroke, cancer and infections.
Conventional experts disagreed, disparaging supplements in favour
of fruits and vegetables. This book presents a new model,
describing the action of vitamin C in health and disease. It
demonstrates conclusively that the establishment has misinterpreted
the evidence, potentially resulting in epidemic levels of avoidable
disease. The dynamic flow model explains the current results and
points the way for future experiments. Vitamin C supplementation
could eradicate many diseases. In pharmacological doses, it could
cure the major killers of the industrialised world. Failure to test
these ideas may condemn countless people to chronic illness and
premature death.
Many people consuming RDA levels of vitamins are likely to suffer
from deficiency disease and premature death. Current official
recommendations for nutrient intakes are inappropriate. As this
book demonstrates, the recommended dietary intake for vitamin C
owes more to politics and prejudice than to science. Furthermore,
the research behind the RDA values for vitamin C is biased and
insubstantial. This book presents an open challenge to the
government "experts," who support the out-of-date RDA approach to
nutrition and thereby endanger the health of the entire population.
For people who value the peer review process, this book was read by
thousands, including doctors and scientists. The readers reported
no significant scientific errors. The authors therefore assert that
the RDA and the Codex justification for low intakes of vitamin C
are both invalid and indefensible.
