The ''Journal of Orthomolecular Medicine'' was established in 1967 by Abram Hoffer. It publishes studies in nutritional and orthomolecular medicine. There is controversy surrounding the journal, as the validity of the field of orthomolecular medicine is not widely accepted by mainstream medicine. ==History== In 1967, Hoffer found it increasingly difficult to publish reports on his studies of megavitamin therapies and claimed that his studies were rejected in a conspiracy of mainstream medicine, prompted by what he alleged to be extended conflicts of interest on the part of the American Psychiatric Association.〔(''Megavitamin Therapy'' ) In Reply To Task Force Report on Megavitamin and Orthomolecular Therapy in Psychiatry. Canadian Schizophrenia Foundation. August 1976〕〔Abram Hoffer, Adventures in Psychiatry: The Scientific Memoirs of Dr. Abram Hoffer, KOS Publishing, Toronto, 2005 (Review ).〕 The ''Journal of Schizophrenia'' followed the formation of the Canadian Schizophrenia Foundation and the American Schizophrenia Association. Hoffer and Humphry Osmond, who developed the hypothesis that schizophrenia is caused by the endogenous production of an epinephrine (adrenaline) based hallucinogen, were called before the Committee of Ethics of the American Psychiatric Association to explain why they were publicizing a treatment, called xenobiotic psychiatry by Bernard Rimland, which was considered outside of standard psychiatric practice.〔(Article by Hoffer ), accessed 23 Sept 2006.〕 Hoffer claims that one of the assistant editors of the ''American Journal of Psychiatry'' announced that he would never allow any article from Hoffer's group to appear in his journal. Several name changes occurred: to ''Schizophrenia''; then to ''Orthomolecular Psychiatry'', ostensibly to reflect the increased application of this type of therapy to other mental illnesses; then to ''Journal of Orthomolecular Medicine''.〔(Archives ).
