Full Description
Depression has become one of the major
health problems in recent years. We are being forced to work harder than
ever before, while taking less vacation and personal time. Catastrophic
world events have only exacerbated this. By 2002, almost 20 million
Americans will be diagnosed with some form of clinical depression.
Simultaneously,
herbs are one of the fastest growing segments in consumer spending and
health care. According to the 2001 Health and Wellness Trends Report,
compiled by the Natural Marketing Institute, "Almost a third of
Americans have tried some form of alternative health care." That
makes nearly 100 million Americans.
HEALING
DEPRESSION NATURALLY will be the first major trade book to offer a
complete regimen of natural cures for depression. Sadly, many cases of
depression are misdiagnosed and over-medicated, and detoxification from
medication is difficult, while recent medical studies have indicated
that various herbs have the ability to bring short term, and, in many
cases, permanent relief from depression. HEALING DEPRESSION NATURALLY
will present a well-organized herbal program, including proper
nutrition, intestinal detoxification and behavior modification through
herbs, and herbal based healing techniques, including flower remedies
and aromatherapy. It will demystify herbs by incorporating them into
daily, practical use for direct results.
