Millions of people medicate themselves with alcohol for anxiety or depression. I'm sure alcohol has some effect on brain function. Where's all the books telling people not to drink because most people wouldn't be interested in such a book. As a matter of fact there's shows on tv dedicated to wine or fine whiskeys.
Years of unmedicated anxiety or depression also do terrible things to the body and mind.So not medicating and living with these conditions are poor options. Now if you want to go the alternative route that's another option. You know diet,exercise,vitamins and etc. But if that doesn't work I wouldn't just exist in a state of depression and suffer because someone wrote a book for profit.
Reminds me of diet books. There must be over twenty books on the ultimate solution to losing weight and keeping it off forever and their pseudo science backing up their theories.
