Vitamins and Minerals in Neurological Disorders offers readers a comprehensive reference addressing their relationship to brain health in a wide variety of neurological diseases. Examining various compounds, this broad coverage allows readers to learn about the role nutrient deficiency plays in the pathology of many conditions, as well as their potential in treatment. The book covers diseases including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, ALS, and MS, along with severe neurological conditions like brain injury, stroke, headache and migraine. This volume provides a platform for research on vitamins, minerals and future investigations of these compounds.
