Orthomolecular medicine

Orthomolecular medicine is a form of alternative medicine aimed at maintaining health through nutritional supplementation and based on the assertion that there is an optimum nutritional environment in the body and that diseases reflect deficiencies in this environment. Treatment for disease, according to this view, calls for the ""correcting of imbalances or deficiencies based on individual biochemistry"" by use of substances natural to the body, such as vitamins, minerals, amino acids, trace elements and fatty acids. Few medical or scientific experts support this approach; even the accuracy of calling the orthomolecular approach a form of medicine has been questioned since the 1970s.The approach is sometimes referred to as megavitamin therapy because its practice evolved out of, and in some cases still uses, doses of vitamins and minerals many times higher than the recommended dietary intake. Orthomolecular practitioners may also incorporate a variety of other styles of treatment into their approaches, including dietary restriction, megadoses of non-vitamin nutrients and mainstream pharmaceutical drugs. Proponents argue that non-optimal levels of certain substances can cause health issues beyond simple vitamin deficiency and see balancing these substances as an integral part of health.The term ""orthomolecular"" was coined by Linus Pauling to mean ""the right molecules in the right amounts"" (ortho is Greek for ""right""). Proponents of orthomolecular medicine hold that treatment must be based on each patient's individual biochemistry.The scientific and medical consensus is that the broad claims of efficacy advanced by advocates of orthomolecular medicine are not adequately tested as drug therapies. It has been described as a form of food faddism and even quackery. Proponents point to mainstream sources that have published research supporting the benefits of nutrient supplementation and to instances where conventional medicine uses vitamins as treatments for some diseases.However, some vitamins have been linked to increased risk of cancer and death. The scientific consensus view is that for normal individuals, a balanced diet contains all necessary vitamins and minerals, and that routine supplementation is not necessary absent specific diagnosed deficiencies.
