  Nutrition: The Good, The Bad & The Politics.
This book is the revised combination of Dr Tabrizian’s first two books “Nutritional Medicine: Fact and Fiction” and “Another Dose of Nutritional Medicine”. The amalgamation of the two “booklets” and the addition of a section on Manganese, has allowed the author to publish a paperback format. Subjects covered are the trace elements, the toxic elements, Coenzyme Q10, Cancer, Chronic Fatigue, Diabetes, Depression, ADD and most of all, the politics of Natural Medicines today. r.r.p. $25

 Practitioner’s Guide to reading a Tissue Mineral Analysis (hair analysis).
This is a 100 page A4 manual logically detailing the analysis of TMA so that Practitioners in Nutritional Medicine can understand the finer points of this science. It explains ratios; toxin effects, and has details of the many faces of copper overload. A must for the library of any natural health practitioner. A passage from the book. “I believe it is more fruitful to examine why minerals vary from the reference ranges. Imagine a room in a building that is monitored by a central air-conditioning system. If you went into that room and it was cold, it wouldn’t really matter if it were 3 degrees or 4 degrees. There is something wrong with the control mechanism that sets and adjusts the temperature. …The mineral level that is out of range is a message that the system is damaged or perhaps being influenced by a toxic compound.” 100 pages r.r.p. $28

 How to Read a Tissue Mineral Analysis (Hair Analysis) DVD
This video looks at how to read a tissue mineral (hair) analysis with the view to solving clinical problems such as fatigue, diabetes, depression and other conditions. r.r.p. $25

 Visual Textbook of Nutritional Medicine
“The bottom line is that symptoms are caused by 2 reasons. Either the nutrient isn’t there or it’s being blocked.” This is the new way to think about Medicine. It is Diagnostic Orthomolecular Medicine (DOM).

Dr Igor Tabrizian has attempted to simplify the vast amount of data into bite size digestible pieces. His research journey included forays into scientific research that would be classed as “peripheral” to Modern Medicine (particle physics, metallotoxicology, veterinary medicine, macromolecular chemistry and environmental politics). Each of these disciplines held vital clues to providing the “Unified Theory of Medicine”, which he terms “Cation Dysfunction Theory (CDT)”. Using this theory he provides a molecular approach to solving common problems in General Practice.

For those with little time to scour textbooks for information, this book delivers excellent graphics to help solve clinical problems such as ADD, Depression, and Chronic Fatigue. Many of Dr Tabrizian’s famous graphics from his lecture series are included in this 262-page volume. Well referenced, it allows practitioners to back up their clinical judgments. 262 pages r.r.p.$75 Order form

 Magnesium, Zinc, Iron, Copper and other trace elements…
This book is the sections on trace elements that appear in the Textbook of Nutritional Medicine. It is the essence of the mineral sections. The graphics from his famous lectures series illustrate the points extremely well. 114 pages r.r.p. $28

   Brain Foods, Brain Poisons: Autism as a case in point
On Saturday November 27th 2004, Dr Igor Tabrizian delivered a lecture on Autism to a well-informed Sydney audience. The attendees gained insight into how clinical nutritionists examine the mechanisms and formulate treatment schedules for Autism. The lecture was again complemented by his “killer” graphics which made the difficult concepts simple.

The lecture looked at normal brain function with regards to nutritional needs of the mother and child. It examined the importance of tissue co-operation such as hormones, gut and brain in ensuring correct development of all the tissues in the growing child.

But in particular the lecture looked at where brain function goes wrong in Autism and more importantly why this is happening as a global epidemic. It examined the roles of genetics and antioxidants in the prevention and treatment of Autism and looked at the roles of toxic metals in the genesis of the disease and how these generate the symptoms of Autism. 70 pages r.r.p. $28. Audio CD or Video CD or DVD $25

 Degeneration Diseases of the Brain: Nutritional Interventions
The book (based on a PowerPoint slide show) looks at the nutritional aspects of normal brain function as well as the current models of Neurodegenerative disorders. With progressively more understanding of the biochemistry of the brain we are able to prevent crippling disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and even Multiple Sclerosis. There are nine "puzzle pieces" that we need for understanding the brain. And for each of the conditions you might research, one of these nine pieces, may well be more important than another, they involve things like the glial cell and nerve cell interactions, the amino acid metabolisms, functional deficiencies, membrane physiology, oxidation state management, epigenetics, tissue co-operation, mineral metabolism and metallo-toxicology. So we will look at these nine things first before we start looking at any particular condition.

The next thing about the central nervous system, the CNS, is that it has three points of vulnerability. The first one is the need to make the brain chemicals (the neurotransmitters), the next one is networking (and it is a huge thing), very poorly understood at the moment by science because of the limitation of how we can model networking. And the last one is lifespan (apoptosis). Based on this data, nutritional interventions may be used to halt the progression of, and even reverse the disease process. 89 pages r.r.p. $28

 Whirlwind Tour of Medicine Audio CD.
A system like the current Medical system functions on the basis of many assumptions like a knowledge pyramid, each stone placed upon the next over time. If the model works, then the users of such a system are generally happy with its conduct. Despite the current model being based upon “Science” with its randomized double-blind trials, Australians spend 2 billion dollars on alternative health care every year. The consumers are becoming dissatisfied and sceptical of a system that they perceive as treating illness “after the fact” and primarily using Doctors as the retail arm of the Pharmaceutical Companies. Without any scientific background the average person is questioning the stability of the stones at the bottom of the knowledge pyramid. Dr Tabrizian examines these shaky stones and why medicine does not want them disturbed.

 Cancer Profiling in Nutritional Medicine Audio CD.
In this lecture he will be talking about the common nutritional abnormalities seen in his Cancer Practice. By using blood and hair analysis, the biochemical profile of a patient with cancer can be elucidated. Furthermore the patterns often explain the mechanism of the cancer and its progression. Most of these abnormalities are correctable. The final message is that 60 % of these predispositions could have been prevented by better nutrition and better Environmental Decisions could have prevented 95 % of cancers. Anyone who has cancer or who wishes to avoid cancer is well advised to attend this valuable talk.

 An Introduction to Nutritional Medicine Audio CD.
The term nutritional medicine often misleads doctors into thinking that the specialty primarily involves diets and lifestyle changes. Orthomolecular medicine is probably as better description but has a rather tarnished reputation. So we resort to the term nutritional medicine so as not to alienate out patients and colleagues. Page one of any pathology textbook will tell you that by the time disease is detectable by microscopy there must have involved a structural change. The structural change must have involved an alteration in the biochemistry in a direction away from the direction that nature intended. They will say look up a biochemistry book to find out what this change entails. The biochemistry books fail to link the pathobiochemistry with the clinical symptoms and everybody basically passes the buck. Nutritional medicine links the various specialties and tries to explain all the phenomena. r.r.p. $25

   Nutritional Aspects of Depression Audio CD and DVD
The rate of depression has been steadily rising in westernized countries, with higher suicide rates in the most affluent (but obviously unhappy) countries. The age of onset has been steadily falling to the point that 25% of Australian children have this diagnosis. Western Australia has three times the prescribing rate of antidepressants for children compared to any other Australian state. Dr Tabrizian examines the biochemical and toxicological aspects of this devastating disease with focus on supplements such as tryptophan, tyrosine and other Vitamin/Mineral combinations. r.r.p $25

  Diabetes: Nutritional Interventions Audio CD and DVD
Diabetes is a growing concern in westernized countries and is appearing in younger people every day. Dr Tabrizian examines the biochemical and toxicological aspects of this modern day epidemic (both Type I and Type II) in his usual no-holds-barred style. The roles of common supplements such Zinc, Chromium, Lipoic Acid and Amino Acids are discussed. r.r.p. $20 Audio CD or DVD ical and toxicological aspects of this devastating disease with focus on supplements such as tryptophan, tyrosine and other Vitamin/Mineral combinations. r.r.p $25

  Nutritional Aspects of Immunity Audio CD and DVD
By the age of 3 months, the thymus gland has issued a full set of life-long instructions to the immune system . These instructions fall into 3 categories. Firstly, fight invaders like viruses, bacteria, and fungi. Secondly, shoot to kill any cells that don’t conform to known templates. Thirdly don’t shoot your own cells. This lecture explains how the immune system relies on nutrients to function correctly. It covers allergy (and hypersensitivity), auto-immunity and impaired immunity. r.r.p $25

   Haemochromatosis: Nutritional Interventions DVD and Audio CD
Haemochromatosis is a combination of genetic and environmental diseases and is rapidly growing in incidence (parallel with Fatty Liver) in westernized countries. Eight percent of the WA population have genes that predispose them to this iron storage problem, but genetics only account for half of the cases diagnosed. Has medicine got it wrong? Dr Tabrizian examines the biochemical and toxicological aspects of the new Hepatology (study of liver disease) nightmare. r.r.p $25

 Use of Hair Analysis in Chronic Illness. Audio CD.
Doctors are not taught about the value of tissue samples for any application other than histopathology. Minerals with charges like sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc, copper, manganese, molybdenum and chromium are very easy to study because deficiencies of them give "tell-tale" symptoms. However, it is more fruitful to examine why minerals vary from the reference ranges. Variations from the reference ranges could also be due to incorrectly set management systems. The mineral level that is out of range is a message that the system is damaged or perhaps being influenced by a toxic compound. Toxic elements like arsenic, cadmium, lead and aluminium affect the nutrient mineral levels by pushing some minerals higher than the reference range. But sometimes you do not see that magnitude of the toxic load until you provoke the system to push out some of these toxins. At the end of the day, a test is not a diagnosis; it is just the beginning of another investigation. r.r.p $25

 Too Much, Too Young (Adult Disease in Childhood). Audio CD.
Why are we seeing Adult disease in Childhood? Why have we seen an unnerving rise in Cancer, Diabetes, Depression and Asthma in our children when 50 years ago these disorders were only found in Adults? Dr Tabrizian looks at the Biochemical causes of such diseases and demonstrates why these are happening at an earlier age. He also makes positive suggestions on how to correct such problems and what steps we can take as a community to stop the tide of ill health.. r.r.p $25
