"This book sheds light on the missing piece in treating mental health illnesses: brain inflammation. Our field has focused almost exclusively on talk therapy and pharmaceuticals with not a lot to show for it. So many of us are left without effective treatment options and with no answers. Well, until now. Kachur expertly distills hundreds of scientific studies into an accessible guide, unveiling the surprising link between inflammation and mental well-being, and then provides tools to do something about it. It's a must-read." -Dr. Reza Hosseini Ghomi, MD, neuropsychiatrist and co-founder of Frontier Psychiatry
