Benefits of Fasting - Lotus Life
Aloha cherished Friends & Guests! Food is everywhere. The smell, the taste, the sight of it. It is hard not indulging in the delicious aromas surrounding you, especially when your stomach is grumbling and your automatic thought is to satisfy your hunger. I love food, and when my stomach is grumbling all I want to do is ‘feed the beast’. Have you ever thought about the benefits of fasting (for 24, 48 or 72 hours)? If you are religious or needed blood work, surgeries, or procedures, you may be familiar to fasting. As I mentioned previously, I am a breast cancer survivor. The benefits of fasting
GABA - The Natural Anti Anxiety Supplement
Did you know 40 million people are affected by anxiety disorders? This is a fact according to The Anxiety and Depression Association of America. I personally think anxiety and depression walk a fine line. And I suffer from both. For me, this really started to come out when my mom passed of breast cancer, followed by her older sister a few years later.

My anxiety levels increase significantly in certain situations such as social events

Is a Vitamin Deficiency the Root Cause of Your Problems?
I have several #1 books on Amazon™ bringing new patients into my practice as I use a step-wise approach. What do I mean by ‘step-wise’? I recently attended an education conference on testosterone pellets and their surgical placement since we occasionally use them with certain patients. This conference was interesting because vendors were selling pellets from various pharmacies and to them everyone needed pellets .

GENOVA™ Neopterin Biopterin Urine Profile for MTHFR
This test result is bad and could indicate an infection, especially viral. This is a great test for those with A1298C and especially who are Homozygous A1298C. Neopterin is bad while biopterin is good. If neopterin is repeatedly high, the BH4 is low. Neopterin is a sensitive marker of cellular mediated immunity.
