This is a really good question, and one that we continue to struggle with. We seriously considered quitting our jobs and returning to school full time to pursue some kind of medical degree. Here’s the problem…what they teach you in medical school is old hat, based on chasing symptoms, and fails to truly center the focus on the patient; all the while never making you better. Our goal is to help people, so what’s the use in following a broken model? We want to promote steps that YOU can do to reach YOUR goals. We want to share the, although not so popular, proven practices that have been forgotten, ignored, or simply buried for the sake of profit and power. We are simply providing our cliff notes of what we found to work for us, and we never pretend to be a doctor or know more than we actually do. We are constantly learning – every day! It’s honestly, one of the things that keeps us going. This is why you’ll find a lot of our articles referencing other medical journals or seminars. We want you to trust that you’re getting verifiable data – that our recommendations are backed by science. Furthermore, we simply want to share others’ stories with you. Sometimes just hearing that someone else has done it (lost 30-40 lbs, overcame disease, et cetera) can be really encouraging. Why simply stand by accepting that you’ll have disease “X” forever, that there’s no cure, and that you’ll be on medications for the rest of your life? Why not consider hearing from someone who’s overcome hypertension, high cholesterol, renal dysfunction, hyperthyroidism, IBS – or someone who’s drastically reversed Type II Diabetes, allergies and asthma – or any number of hundreds of thousands of people out there who have taken their fate into their own hands and did something about it?
