on the road to a healthy you.....

     Each individual will follow its own pathway depending on its lifestyle, attitude and personality. Every action has a reaction, when you are on a dietary transition your body will experience biochemical changes at the cellular level, as you introduce new foods and discard others your body will eliminate toxins and sometimes you might experience some tension. Don't worry there are just temporary healing reactions.

some thoughts......

     People tend to believe that "home remedies"are the poor man's response to alleviate minor ailments, but if you live in the western world and you can afford a doctor you don't need to waste your precious time with herbs and concoctions that sound more like witchery than medicine. A M.D. will give you the right prescription and you'll get the rapid and perfect cure that you deserve with  just a magic pill.

       Natural healing using whole foods and herbs is not just a new age fad but the study of ancient East Asian practices thousands of years old. There are no "magic potions", just an understanding of how our body works and how different foods work together or block each other to help us achieve balance. Yin and yang are the principles that guide our philosophy, their duality yang active and yin passive creates the whole and that principle repeats over and over in nature.
