| ORTHOMOLECULAR PSYCHIATRY Dr. Abram Hoffer Receives 14th Linus Pauling Functional Medicine Award This is the fourteenth year the Institute has given the award, which honors an individual who has contributed significantly to the advancement of knowledge in functional medicine through research or clinical expertise. Jeffrey S. Bland, PhD, founder of the Institute for Functional Medicine, presented the award to Dr. Hoffer in Victoria, British Columbia on December 10, 2008, lauding Dr. Hoffer's lifetime of pioneering work in orthomolecular medicine, a field of medical research and practice that focuses on preventing and treating disease by providing the body with optimal amounts of vitamins and other substances which are natural to the body. The award commemorates the late Dr. Linus Pauling, the only person ever to receive two unshared Nobel Prizes - for chemistry in 1954 and for peace in 1962. Dr. Hoffer's distinguished career in psychiatry began in the 1950's working with schizophrenic patients in a Saskatchewan mental hospital. His discovery of unique chemicals in the urine of schizophrenics led him to theorize that certain forms of mental illness resulted not from bad early childhood experiences, but as a consequence of altered brain chemistry. His research demonstrated that some schizophrenics could be successfully treated with increased doses of the common B vitamins, niacin and pyridoxine. While considered somewhat radical at the time, Dr. Hoffer's research on the use of mega doses of vitamins was later supported by the research of Dr. Linus Pauling, who coined the term "orthomolecular" to express the idea of "the right molecules in the right concentration. His research has informed new approaches to preventive medicine and the development of new treatments for cancer and chronic illnesses as well as schizophrenia and a host of other psychiatric conditions. "In a career that has spanned more than a half-century, Dr. Abram Hoffer's groundbreaking work in orthomolecular psychiatry has earned him a place in history as a pioneer of medicine for the 21st century," said Dr. Bland. "Dr. Hoffer is a master at synthesizing new ideas, considering not only the functional physiology of the patient, but also exploring how nutrition affects the expression of genes, taking into account each person's unique biochemistry and genetic individuality. His research has resulted in numerous leaps forward in the field of biologically- Functional medicine is an evolution in the practice of medicine that addresses the healthcare needs of the 21st century by focusing on prevention and uncovering the underlying causes of serious chronic disease. Functional medicine provides a framework for the practice of medicine that uses all the tools of healing, both conventional and alternative, to address the whole person rather than an isolated set of symptoms. It incorporates the latest scientific research and takes into account the interactions among genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors that can influence long-term health and complex, chronic disease. Functional medicine provides a new way of thinking about prevention, public health, wellness and treatment of chronic disease that can lead to better outcomes and lower healthcare costs. About The Institute for Functional Medicine Founded in 1991 by Jeffrey and Susan Bland, the nonprofit Institute for Functional Medicine provides continuing medical education and clinical support for the implementation of functional medicine across multiple health disciplines. The institute's mission is to improve patient outcomes through prevention, early assessment, and comprehensive management of complex, chronic disease. Thanks to Jim Ellis, ASH

others see the value in providing the basics. The basics the body was
intended to have when it was created continue to be the building blocks of
natural optimum health for today. ~Vickie Barker - ASH Researcher/Autologist

that admission he denies God,

prescribe or recommend treatments for disease. However, we are independent researchers that have discovered certain truths that most definitely do need to be shared with others. Our purpose is to share the truths we have found and allow each man and each woman a choice, so they may make better informed decisions about their future. ~ASH Research Team |

MASTER FORMULAS RESEARCH PROTOCOLS FOR MOLECULAR REPAIR, DETOXIFICATION AND MoRE |
| These 2 protocols have been formulated exclusively for researchers based on the work of Linus Pauling and Dr. Frederick Klenner. The buffered mineral ascorbate form of vitamin C has been found to be the form in which the human body produced its own when it had that ability. |
