Studies support schizophrenia as a progressive brain disorder involving glutamate and dopamine. Wouldn’t natural treatments to correct whatever is causing the imbalance be more helpful than short-term treatments like anti-psychotics that mimic normal brain chemistry but dont actually correct and fix it?
Anything that stimulates nerves and helps restore natural chemistry would probably be beneficial. I dont specically now how neurochemical transmitters work so I cant say what could permanently restore their functions, or how that would be measured.
Im not sure how effective vitamins and orthomolecular therapy is as its discredited I believe, but what really regulates chemistry–glutamate is a type of sugar, perhaps in the realm of sugar and glucose…
Maybe something like a permanent anti-psychotic without side effects would be better.
