Where there is mental illness there is frequently a history of digestive and nutritional problems. Digestive problems in turn exacerbate mental distress.

A wonderful book
A great book that I found to be developmental and maturative for a young man coming of age such as myself. I found this book to be worthwhile and generally relatable to me. I further found the information generally intelligent and I further highly recommend this book.
