Glyconutrients are not vitamins, minerals, herbals, homeopathics or enzymes. They are a class all to themselves. They are supplements derived from nature that have been formulated based on a new understanding in biochemistry of how our bodies maintain health at the cellular level. This new discovery is as significant as the discovery of the role of vitamins, essential fatty acids, and amino acids in how the body functions. Glyconutritionals are the foods and nutritional supplements that provide saccharides along with other glycoforms (lipids and proteins) essential to the body, but which are scarce in most diets.

Let’s face it. Our lives are so busy these days that we just don’t think to breathe. People with low self-esteem, heart problems, people who are tired all the time, asthmatics and other lung diseases can really be helped from this type of exercise. So, how do we find ways to remind ourselves to breathe deeper?
Did you ever wonder why so many people are depressed these days? There are many reasons for depression, but one reason that the medical field may be overlooking- is the Near Death Experience (NDE.)

Over the years I've noticed that prostate problems come and go. Those men that apply positive lifestyle changes and work on the emotional aspects of the challenge have a better success rate. If you don’t work on the emotional aspect of the dis-ease, you will never fully release it (especially when it comes to cancer!).
It's amazing what one can do for headaches of all types once you have fully described what you are experiencing and have determined the core cause and the best treatments for them. This is the worksheet I have developed over the years that has helped countless clients in my own practice. I hope you see things on this page that will help you.
Gout is a form of arthritis that affects the big toe, other peripheral joints, tendons and kidneys. The first sign of an attack of gout is acute needle-like pain caused from uric acid crystals poking into the surrounding tissues which turns the joint bright red. Generalized fever may result. Gout happens from either overproduction or under-processing of uric acid, which allows it to build up in the blood, tissues, and urine.
The causes for depression are numerous and many times there are multiple causes. Sometimes we need a combination of natural treatments and allopathic medicine ("real drugs".) Like any disease process, we eliminate what we can, and minimize those things we can't get around. Health is a journey and a choice.
