Natural Health Care Philosophy
Natural health care involves a change of focus from relieving symptoms to giving the body the tools it needs to build health and vitality. If you give a man a fish, he has a meal, but if you teach him to catch fish, he can eat for a lifetime. Similarly, if your practitioner only gives you a drug, surgery, or 'holistic' therapy, but doesn't teach you natural health care using scientific principles derived from study of ancestral (paleolithic) diets and health, he only gives you temporary relief, not sustainable health. Your current state of health reflects the the quality of choices you habitually make in your daily life. If you have some health issue, whether pain, skin condition, fertility, hypothyroidism, or any others, this means that your diet and lifestyle do not meet your basic human needs, physical, mental, and emotional. In other words: If you don't have healthy body function, if you have to take drugs to control anything, if you have infertility, skin issues, gut aches, headaches, chronic pain, or any other chronic issue, this shows you that you either eat an unhealthy diet or have an unhealthy lifestyle. I know what you're thinking: But I Already Eat Healthy! Like you, we used to believe that we had "healthy" eating habits because we followed the advice offered on the Today Show or other popular media outlets--avoid saturated fat, eat more whole grains, increase fiber, reduce meat, etc.--yet we had health complaints. We didn't get relief until we realized that our less than ideal health proved that our "healthy" low-fat, high-fiber diet was NOT healthy. So, if you eat "healthy" according to conventional wisdom, but still don't feel well, we can help you because we've been there ourselves. We can help you change your health if you can open your mind to new ideas. We started by realizing that the conventional wisdom you get in the popular media and from conventional physicians about diet is dead wrong. Conventional medicine does not teach natural health care, instead it promises health in a pharmaceutical pill. Don't fall for it. No disease is caused by drug deficiency. In the realm of diet,the conventional medical/pharmaceutical and nutrition establishments (AMA, ADA, AHA, etc) give you false information and bank on your ignorance. Their unscientific dietary recommendations make people sick, fat, diabetic, and cancer-prone (e.g. the Food Pyramid Scheme). Is it merely coincidence that this generates lifelong customers for their drugs and surgeries? For example, they falsely claim that blood cholesterol causes heart disease, that lowering blood cholesterol will prevent heart attacks, that you should avoid eating meat and saturated fat to prevent heart disease, and that if that fails, the only hope lies in cholesterol-lowering drugs. Actually, scientific data does not support these claims. In fact, according to the best science, if you want to avoid heart disease, you should eat almost exactly the opposite of what they recommend. Our dietary approach differs from most so-called 'integrative,' 'holistic,' 'naturopathic,' and 'alternative' doctors. The vast majority of medical doctors, holistic practitioners, naturopathic physicians, nutritionists, and dietitians--including the 'famous' ones-- have little or no understanding of natural human diet and thus little or no clue what to eat or do to create health. Most believe in the nutrition information you get on the Morning Show because they have FAILED to do the painstaking research and critical thinking needed to uncover the truth. For example, Dr. Mehmet Oz commands a huge audience and promotes a low fat, high fiber diet. He recently found that he has developed colon polyps, a precursor to colon cancer. He doesn't know that eating high fiber grain- and bean- based foods actually promotes colon cancer. I discussed his case and the evidence showing that fiber promotes cancer in my blog article
Dr. Oz Cancer Scare.
There are no short cuts to fertility, clear skin, or any other aspect of health. It all comes as a package as a result of natural health care, eating and living in a way compatible with human nature. Are You Ready For Natural Health Care? We can and will provide symptomatic treatment to anyone. However, we have the most to offer to the person who wants more out of life, more than mediocre health, more than symptoms covered by drug side-effects. We provide the most sustainable, evidence-based dietary and lifestyle guidance available anywhere, at a very reasonable cost. If you understand that your health reflects your choices and practices and have a burning desire for health AND feel willing to try something outside the 'box' of conventional wisdom and experiment by putting our tested guidance into practice, we will consider you an ideal patient. You will find the best proof of our guidance in your own results from application. For example, we know that IF you follow our dietary guidance to the letter, for at least 30 days in a row, with no slips, while consulting us (not someone else) to work out the bugs, you will improve your body composition and experience a level of health you never thought possible. We don't promise that you will have complete resolution of your symptoms or any 'cure' in that time, but if you work with us you will feel better than you have in years. If you want the best in natural health care, give us a call. We look forward to seeing you in the office!
