Neuroplasticity: Norman Doige, M.D. Viking 2015

irreversible can be improved, often radically, and in a number of cases, as we shall see, cured.”

The Paleo Cardiologist. The Natural Way to Heart Health. Jack Wolfson, D.O. F.A.C.C. MJ New

Statin Free Plan That Will. Stephen Sinatra, M.D., F.A.C.C., Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S.
“Cholesterol is an essential molecule without which there would be no life, so important that
virtually every cell in the body is capable of synthesizing it. Nutritionist Jonny Bowden, Ph.D.,
and cardiologist Stephen Sinatra, M.D., have teamed up in this book to slash through the tall
thicket of misinformation surrounding cholesterol, lipoproteins, and the lipid hypothesis.”

In Defense of Food: An Eater’s Manifesto: Michael Pollan. The Penguin Press, 2008
“Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants. That, more or less, is the short answer to the supposedly
incredibly complicated and confusing question of what we humans should eat in order to be
maximally healthy. Four of the top ten causes of death today are chronic diseases with wellestablished
links to diet: coronary heart disease, diabetes, stroke, and cancer. All of our
uncertainties about nutrition should not obscure the plain fact that the chronic diseases that now
kill most of us can be traced directly to the industrialization of our food: the rise of highly
processed foods and refined grains; the use of chemicals to raise plants and animals in huge
monocultures; the superabundance of cheap calories of sugar and fat produced by modern
agriculture; and the narrowing of the biological diversity of the human diet to a tiny handful of
staple crops, notably wheat, corn, and soy.”

Deadly Spin: An Insurance Company Insider Speaks Out on How Corporate PR is Killing Health Care
and Deceiving Americans: Wendell Potter. Bloomsbury
Deadly Spin is a revelation about America’s health care system unlike anything else you’ve seen.
There are a lot of books and articles about health care reform, but none of them provide the
insider’s perspective like this one.

Spark: The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain: John J. Ratey, M.D. with Eric
Hagerman. Little, Brown and Company.
“Neuroscientists have just begun studying exercise’s impact within brain cells— at the genes
themselves. Even there, in the roots of our biology, they’ve found signs of the body’s influence on
the mind. It turns out that moving our muscles produces proteins that travel through the
bloodstream and into the brain, where they play pivotal roles in the mechanisms of our highest
thought processes.”

A Nation in Pain: Healing our Biggest Health Problem: Foreman, Judy. Oxford University Press;
2014
“Out of 238 million adults, 100 million live in chronic pain. In A Nation In Pain, Foreman offers a
sweeping, deeply researched account of the chronic pain crisis . . . and presents practical
solutions that are within our grasp today . . . and fair-minded assessments of the effectiveness of
alternative remedies, including marijuana, acupuncture, massage, and chiropractic care.“

The Wahls Protocol: A Radical New Way to Treat All Chronic Autoimmune Conditions Using Paleo
Principles: Wahls, Terry, M.D. And Eve Adamson. Avery, New York; 2014
Food is the bedrock of health. Our food choices can either lead to disease or create health and
vitality.

Vibrational Medicine: The #1 Handbook of Subtle Energy Therapies: Gerber, Richard, M.D. 3rd
Edition. Bear and Co., Rochester, VT;
This book is an exploration into the various mechanisms of healing. It is an introduction to a new
system of thinking about health and illness in general. This system of thought examines human
functioning from the perspective of multiple interactive energy systems. It is an attempt to go
beyond the current medical paradigm of illness in order to understand at a deeper level why our
thoughts and emotions affect our physiology, and also to comprehend how therapies as simple as
herbs, flowers, and water can be such powerful healers.

Energy Medicine: The Scientific Basis: Oschman, James L. Ph.D. Churchill Livingstone/Elsevier
Limited 2000.
“This book tells two stories. One is the story of the emergence of a new and tremendously
exciting branch of academic medicine. Behind this emerging science is the equally fascinating tale
of why the whole subject has been so confusing and controversial in the past. This second
narrative accounts for the paradox of the enduring and widespread academic skepticism and
myopia about therapeutic approaches that are based on concepts of energy. . .”
