Dr. Hoffer's ABC of Natural Nutrition for Children

Abram Hoffer

Dr. Abram Hoffer, a founding father of the alternative health movement, has written the definitive book on natural nutrition for children. He examines chronic illnesses suffered by over 2,000 children in his practice, with special attention to learning and behavior disorders, and discovers that nutrient deficiency is the predominant cause. He recommends against pharmaceutical (ritalin, for example), psychotherapeutic, and surgical intervention in favor of orthomolecular or nutritional therapy. - Back cover.
