Dr. Atkins' Vita-Nutrient Solution by Robert C Atkins Md
Long a champion of complementary medicine and nutritional therapy, Dr. Robert Atkins presents the scientific basis of the use of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, herbs, and hormones in the treatment and prevention of most of the chronic illnesses that plague us today. Here, for the first time, he makes this information available outside of his practice, with vital information on more than 120 supplements, most of them available in the UK. Best of all, Dr. Atkins shows consumers how to create a personalised programme to help them regain or improve their health by using special combinations of nutritional supplements specifically designed to help, cure, or prevent many of the more common medical conditions. These vita-nutrients harness the body's ability to heal itself, rather than resorting to conventional drugs and invasive procedures, and address the true cause of disease instead of temporarily alleviating symptoms, promoting longer-lasting and more effective healing.
Robert C. Atkins, M.D., was the founder and medical director of the Atkins Center for Complementary Medicine. A 1951 graduate of the University of Michigan, he received his medical degree from Cornell University Medical School in 1955, and went on to specialize in cardiology. He was a practicing physician for over thirty years and is the author of several books. As a leader in the areas of natural medicine and nutritional pharmacology, he had built an international reputation. He was the recipient of the World Organization of Alternative Medicine's Recognition of Achievement Award and was the National Health Federation's Man of the Year. His many media appearances, where he had discussed diet and health, included "Larry King Live," "Oprah," "CBS This Morning," and "CNBC," among others. Many magazine and newspaper articles have featured his work, and he also had a nationally syndicated radio show. Dr. Atkins was the editor of his own national monthly newsletter, "Dr. Atkins' Health Revelations." He died in April 2003.
