How to HEAL the BRAIN without PSYCHO MEDS: The True Story of me - Living Happy with Bipolar 2 and PTSD - Paperback
by Werner Rusterholz (Author)
Life can be challenging - I was a carpenter on the way to work as a commercial pilot when a car accident destroyed my plans and my health in summer 1999. This accident left me with a Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) for many years until I got the chance to get my life back when I found a way to heal my trauma.
Still, something didn't feel right and a couple of weeks before Valentine's Day 2016, I learned that I have a disorder. A brain disorder, the bipolar disorder. It's a genetic vulnerability that can get activated by the events of life. The moment I realized almost all my problems were symptoms of a disorder, I felt such a relief. So many things were clear in retrospect. Not really knowing anything about bipolar disorder I started to research on internet. Most information is about how to get medicated and how to live with the side effects of the drugs. For personal reasons I don't plan on taking psychotropic drugs, if there might be a natural way to heal. Please consult your doctor before you change your medication. After days of search, I found a blog, someone writing about how he has healed his bipolar disorder, living now stable for years. To my surprise he wasn't selling any kind of drug or food supplement. No, he said he basically only did one thing, he stopped to eat sugar and to drink coffee, and alcohol, as it is sugar too. Further research proved the connection of sugar, insulin and the brain. The moment I realized, the impact of sugar on my brain, I made a decision;The author of this book, Werner Rusterholz, was born in Switzerland and lives there most of his life.
