The Three Truths

1. Mind, brain, and body are one, interacting, whole-system. Disturbances in mental states are disturbances in the body and have physical causes such as drinking alcoholic beverages.

2. The brain is a delicate, precision instrument that is prone to error and requires careful input management. The brain is often the first organ to malfunction when the chemical input is wrong.

3. Foods and drinks as body-input, is the molecular substrate of body-mind, the foundation level, which permits or denies healthy function at higher levels of integration.
Without a healthy body-input, mental health is an impossible goal.
