Full Description
Despite the increased demand for traditional, complementary, and integrative medicine (TCIM) therapies by patients around the world, current guidelines, regulations, and research for TCIM therapies are lacking. Traditional, Complementary, and Integrative Medicine for Neurocognition provides a detailed analysis of clinical and preclinical evidence to support for cognitive diseases, giving the reader a comprehensive overview of the scientific evidence for the key TCIM modalities, and highlighting challenges and opportunities associated with TCIM for the prevention and management of cognitive disorders.
The book translates research findings into practical clinical treatment protocols addressing major categories of neurocognitive disorders and covers issues pertaining to safety and research methods used to evaluate safety and efficacy of natural products that are being investigated as potential treatments of neurocognitive disorders. Traditional, Complementary, and Integrative Medicine for Neurocognition will be an excellent resource for researchers and clinicians working with patients diagnosed with neurodegenerative disorders, practitioners of integrative medicine, traditional and complementary medicine (especially Ayurveda and traditional Chinese medicine), and conventional medicine, allied health practitioners, and universities with medical and traditional and complementary medicine courses.
