One fact is true for all of us. We are all getting older every day. Because of our conditioning with conventional medicine, most of us wait until we have something go wrong to address our health. And for some people it’s already too late. I have recently noticed a trend with new patients. There is a great frustration with a medical system designed to put a bandaid on symptoms. And often there is no bandaid and the patient is just told they are getting older and they’ll have to learn to live with it. Not great for quality of life! The number one reason prevention is the best way to go.

I work with people who want to lose weight - a lot. I always stress that getting healthy is number one, and that the weight will follow. It’s difficult when you are losing weight not to obsess about the number you see on the scale. We can’t live and die by the scale - and here’s why.

We’ve all heard that food is medicine. This is true and incredibly important. It can control our development or not of chronic disease. It can help us sleep well and have sustained energy or cause insomnia and fatigue. It can literally cause or eliminate almost any symptom. And we all need to consume it.

Last week, I turned 49…from quite a few, I heard, “Oh, to be 49 again!” Not what I was thinking - I didn’t realize how much that number was getting to me until my actual birthday, when I realized I had been having all of these unhelpful thoughts. For the last few months I have been having some symptoms that just weren’t going away. I started believing what I hear people often tell me when I meet them for the first time. “Oh, it’s because I’m getting older.” I was almost resigned to never feeling better.

I've been eager to make this for quite a while. I had learned about it from a podcast a couple of months ago. So I tried it yesterday with some slight alterations.
