So who better to gain expert advice from than a doctor? These 9 nine books all have a unique take on nutrition and how it can transform your mental and physical health. Something not to gloss over, that’s for sure.

Too many physicians believe that the only way to treat a mental illness is to put the person on a pharmaceutical medication. Unfortunately, these drugs have horrible side effects and often stop working leaving people worse off than before starting them.
Dr. Brogan takes a holistic approach to treating illnesses that have a mental health component. As a Mental Health Integrative Medicine Practitioner, I am 100% behind non-pharmaceutical approaches to help people thrive. In order for people to really feel better, we need to get to the root cause and address the physical imbalances through nutrition and lifestyle changes.
