Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition explores thiamine and how its deficiency affects the functions of the brainstem and autonomic nervous system by way of metabolic changes at the level of the mitochondria. Thiamine deficiency derails mitochondrial oxidative metabolism and gives rise to the classic disease of beriberi that, in its early stages, can be considered the prototype for a set of disorders that we now recognize as dysautonomia. This book represents the life?s work of the senior author, Dr. Derrick Lonsdale, and a recent collaboration with his co-author Dr. Chandler Marrs.
1. The History of Thiamine and Beriberi2. The Autonomic Nervous System and its Functions3. Mitochondria, Thiamine and Autonomic Dysfunction4. Evaluation and Treatment of Thiamine Metabolism in Clinical Practice 5. Thiamine Deficient Dysautonomias: Case Insights and Clinical Clues6. High Calorie Malnutrition and Its Impact on Health7. The Three Circles of Health8. Energy Metabolism in a Revised Medical Model
Dr. Marrs received a BA in philosophy and then spent many years in the tech industry before returning to academia for an MS in Clinical Psychology and an MA and PhD in Experimental Psychology with an emphasis in neuroendocrinology. Recognizing the lack of women’s health and hormone research, Dr. Marrs founded Lucine Health Sciences, a health research and media company that publishes the online journal Hormones Matter and conducts post-market, direct-to-patient medication safety and efficacy studies.
- Presents clinical experience and animal research that have answered questions about thiamine chemistry
- Demonstrates that the consumption of empty calories can result in clinical effects that lead to misdiagnosis
- Addresses the biochemical changes induced by vitamin deficiency, particularly that of thiamine
