Quantum Supplements: A Total Health and Wellness Makeover with Vitamins, Minerals, and Herbs

by Deanna M. Minich

Overview

The author of The Complete Handbook of Quantum Healing serves up “a must read for anyone interested in holistic health, supplements, and healing” (Elise Marie Collins, author of Super Ager).
 
Quantum Supplements bridges together the seemingly disparate scientific and spiritual realms through popular modern-day concepts, dietary supplements and nutrition, and the ancient chakra system to help people explore the ever-growing field of energy medicine.
 
This user-friendly, cutting edge guide explains the “energy healing” and vibrational properties of vitamins, minerals, and herb/botanicals, specifically their effects on activating and balancing the body’s natural energy centers. Following a practical overview to the different types of dietary supplements and how they work, the author elaborates on the physiological and psychological activities of each energy center, or chakra, and the supplemental nutrients that assist their balance. The book includes many easy-to-read tables, and charts are provided as a quick reference guide to determining which supplements are most appropriate for any and everything—from bolstering the immune system, to fighting off frequent colds, to improving circulation, to even battling memory loss.
 
“A critical handbook for anyone who wants to blend a practical approach with chakras to equal ‘real energy’ for life.”—Cyndi Dale, author of The Subtle Body: An Encyclopedia of Your Energetic Anatomy
 
“An absolute gem! . . . Dr. Minich seamlessly weaves together scientific fact and ancient/intuitive wisdom in a highly readable fashion. Your understanding of vitamins, minerals, and herbs will be forever changed. I consider this book a must have reference work that takes us into the future of nutrition.”—Marc David, founder and director of the Institute for the Psychology of Eating, author of The Slow Down Diet
