I understand where you are coming from and I am suspicious by nature myself. That's why I like this guy.
P.M Kidd is one of the best. You can download his CV at
www.dockidd.com.
Here is the cover page (It runs to 24 darned pages):
Dr. Parris Kidd was born in Jamaica and earned his B.Sc. degree with First
Class Honors at the University of the West Indies. Subsequently he emigrated
to the USA and earned his PhD in cell biology at the University of California
at Berkeley. In 1983, after serving seven years as a research investigator in
cardiology at the University of California's San Francisco Medical Center
(UCSF) and as a lecturer at Berkeley and at the University of the Pacific, Dr.
Kidd entered the new field of nutritional biomedicine. His first project was to
write Antioxidant Adaptation—Its Role in Free Radical Pathology. Published
in 1985, this 500-page text established nutritional antioxidants as the body’s
premier anti-toxic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging substances. It also
established Dr. Kidd as a leading scientist in alternative medicine.
In 1990 Dr. Kidd published Living with the AIDS Virus—A Strategy for
Long-Term Survival. This book discussed the then-limited pharmaceutical
options for managing HIV-1, as well as the evidence that dietary and lifestyle
modification, supplementation with nutrients and herbs, and physical exercise
could help extend lifespan for the person living with AIDS. Dr. Kidd
presented this new integrative approach to disease management
internationally, at community meetings, universities and People with HIV
support groups.
Dr. Kidd subsequently broadened his focus to brain nutrition. In 1994 he
helped introduce the nutrient PhosphatidylSerine (PS) to North America. In
1997 he helped introduce GlyceroPhosphoCholine (GPC). In 2003 he helped
introduce krill omega-3 phospholipids. He has lectured and written
extensively on the uses of these phospholipid nutrients to support attention,
memory and mood, and to salvage declining brain function. Recently he has
published books on PS and GPC.
Dr. Parris Kidd is now internationally recognized as a nutrition educator and
dietary supplement product developer. He remains committed to providing
quality healthcare information rooted in good science. He has published
numerous peer reviewed scientific articles, book chapters, monographs, and
magazine articles on diverse topics in healthcare. He is a Contributing Editor
to the journal Alternative Medicine Review, Science Adviser for Total Health
magazine, and designer of dozens of dietary supplement formulations. Dr.
Kidd’s website at
www.dockidd.com carries a number of his educational
contributions as free downloads. Dr. Kidd continues to be a strong advocate of
integrative strategies for health maintenance and disease management.
