The Manifestations and Triggers of Mental Breakdown, and Its Effective Treatment by Increasing Stress Resilience with Psychosocial Strategies, Therapeutic Lifestyle Changes, and Orthomolecular Interventions
by Jonathan E. Prousky, ND, MSc
This first-place-winning article reframes our approach to mental health by demonstrating the harmful impact of pathologizing normal emotional challenges.

This can have far-reaching health effects on everything from energy to fertility levels. Here are some strategies to come back into balance.
Evidence-Based Medicine
by Katie Carter, ND
Does EBM refer only to published results of research studies, or does it include the experiential expertise of health-care practitioners? How do patients and their needs fit into the picture, and how can practitioners make the most of all these factors to serve their patients best?
