The Brain Chemistry Plan

Very useful reference for coping with society. Allows one to understand themselves and how to relate to the world. Lots of good nutrition suggestions.

I am usually skeptical about books that have questionnaires about your type. I rarely fit. However, to my surprise, after taking this questionnaire, when I read the description of my type, it was like reading my autobiography. Some of my quirky dietary needs and also the supplements were mentioned. I was amazed and was very pleased to be able to use the book to further enhance my health condition. Plus, it was wonderful to finally be understood by a health care practitioner. Dr. Lesser's understanding of people is very keen and adept. The holistic overview provided, covering lifestyle, emotions, diet, and supplements, is like a breath of fresh air. The book is also very well written, easy to follow and understand. I recommend this book to those who are wishing to fine tune their supplement programs or simply don't know what to take. Also, it may be very helpful to individuals who are puzzled by mental or emotional symptoms.

I bought this book because I was looking for ideas on how to be the most successful in both mind and body, and this book is great! It was just what I was looking for. You see it every day how nutrition can effect your moods and productivity, so it makes sense that you would want to eat the foods that are going to make your mind and body run the best. I also liked the way the book is written. It's easy to understand and you don't have to be a doctor to figure it out. Thanks Dr. Lesser!

By answering some questions, the author determines which of six brain chemistry types you are. Based on this type and your symptoms, the author recommends dietary, SUPPLEMENTAL, and lifestyle changes to help w/ stress, mode swings and depression. I really like the fact that the author explains WHY he recommends certain supplements for certain types and HOW they work, which is based on Orthomolecular Medicine = describes the practice of preventing and treating disease by providing the body with optimal amounts of substances which are natural to the body. This is an inexpensive book well worth reading. I will probably try some of the supplements after I do some more reading.

If you're looking for an alternative to the helpful but also harmful brain medications of this day this book is a great start. Dr. Michael Lesser is a genious of his time. It gives you a simple test to take to find wich "brain type" you have with supprising acuracy. A great find!
