Aging as Intended Blog

A few years ago I found out that we all have sets of blueprints in us. These blueprints come with a variety of different instructions as to how the body is intended to function.   Even our enzymes have built-in instructions for nearly every food we encounter.   What came as a surprise, however, was a particular piece of information within the digestive system's instructions — a detail about the quantity  of food consumed at any given meal and its impact on the body. Of course

Over the past few weeks, I’ve heard the same thing from a number of clients:   “I’m coming down with a cold.”   “It must be the virus that’s going around.”   “I’m not sure if it’s the flu or Covid.”   “I think my son might have whooping cough.”   In 90% of these cases, muscle testing showed that there was no cold or virus to speak of. And after the offending imbalances were cleared from their systems via our protocol, all symptoms disappeared.   So what was the root cause und

In today's blog, Nicole describes her own transformation that's occurred as a result of this protocol. We have all been there:   One stressful moment snowballs into multiple. You feel your heart rate & cortisol rise, breath become shallow, and body tense from head to toe.   It could be a difficult work meeting that puts you in a bad mood, followed by traffic on the drive home and then a fight with your spouse. A day when nothing goes right, and you’re left feeling frazzled, d

Typically, the days following Thanksgiving bring a flurry of calls and texts from clients seeking relief from their food comas.   This year, however, the trend reversed.   While I did hear from several people, all but one message was a joyful update: the vast majority had successfully enjoyed their Thanksgiving meals with minimal or no adverse effects.   A client shared this feedback: “I think this was my best Thanksgiving in years. I felt the freedom to eat almost anything I

In our  book , we talk about the importance of chewing and its role in digestion & nutrient absorption. Symptoms such as constipation, bloating, and indigestion can occur when larger food particles are swallowed whole.   If you think about how eating has evolved over the past several decades, society has shifted away from extended meal times at the table with family in exchange for hurried food consumption in between activities –   An on-the-go breakfast bar and coffee in the

Late last Friday night I received the following email from a client, requesting a remote session on behalf of her husband.   His spinal surgery went quite poorly - they must have nicked an artery and created a dangerous bleed into his throat that shifted his trachea, and made him lose the ability to eat, talk, and breathe. He was taken back the ER earlier tonight, intubated, and opened back up to fix the bleed. We aren’t sure how much or if there will be long term damage to h

Digestion is a complex process, beginning the moment food enters the mouth with the creation of enzymes and concluding with the excretion of bowel movements. Contrary to popular belief, digestion is not associated with hunger or cravings. These feelings, in fact, happen to come from the nervous system. From the first bite, 32 intricate steps guide various bodily functions to occur within the body. These include either the purging or creation of fat, the level of energy you'll
