Treating schizophrenic patients to recovery can be as easy as giving them one vitamin for a few months, or as difficult as spending 25 years using a total comprehensive program which includes medical treatment (psychiatric), shelter, nutrition, and tender and loving care by family or by others equally motivated to do so. All these treatment components are equally important.

If you are familiar with my reports to the literature you might think that I consider nutrition and the use of supplements the only important variables. About sixteen percent (88) of my reports deal with treatment of schizophrenia and other conditions, and in these I write primarily about nutrition and vitamin supplements. In this report I will demonstrate the vast importance of all components and illustrate this by the treatment response of two chronic schizophrenic patients who were considered the most intractable and least likely to improve patients, of the more than 5,000 I have seen.I will describe their present condition after many decades of treatment.
