SUPERBIOME 8 MUSHROOM EXTRACTS & 2 PROBIOTICS

For Optimal Gut Health and Balance

A Unique Formulation!

Eidon’s blend of Mushrooms and Probiotics are designed to support optimal gut health. We’ve created a unique, synergistic blend that harnesses the power of eight of the most studied mushrooms that have been traditionally used for centuries: Reishi, Chaga, Lion’s Mane, Maitake, Turkey Tail, Shiitake, Phellinus and Cordyceps. These mushrooms contain prebiotics, beta-glucans and secondary metabolites that stimulate gut microbiota growth. We’ve added two robust probiotic strains, Bacillus Coagulans and Laterosporus (BOD strain), to repopulate the gut with good bacteria.

In addition to mushrooms feeding good bacteria, some mushrooms like Turkey tail, Reishi, Shiitake, Chaga and Lion’s Mane are also known for combating bad bacteria that invade our microbiome. It has been proven that our immune system, nervous system and gut microbiota are all inter-connected. The health of our internal ecosystem is essential to our overall wellbeing.

100% Pure Mushroom Extracts

All of our mushroom extracts come from actual fruiting bodies of the mushroom that are grown on wood substrate. Most ‘mushroom’ products available are just the mycelium that is grown on grains. All of our mushrooms are made bioavailable via hot water extraction processing.

Concentrated Mushrooms

Most of our mushroom extracts are concentrated, meaning you get up to 10 times more of the beneficial components per serving than a standard 1:1 extract. Higher potentcy equals more benefits.

Lab Tested & Verified

Our mushrooms are 3rd party tested for beta-glucans (the main active beneficial compound), are put through stringent quality control protocols, and are tested twice for heavy metals, agricultural chemicals and microbial contamination.

t happens all the time. Patients visit doctors after months of pain and fatigue. They’re diagnosed with arthritis, diabetes or an autoimmune disease. Then they receive grim news: “There is no cure. You’ll take medicine to treat symptoms for the rest of your life.”

This takes me back to 1992, the year I became a nurse. I was convinced of the healing power of mainstream medicine. But it didn’t take me long to realize prevention—living a fullly healthy lifestyle—is the best medicine.

It’s also the cheapest medicine. Some complain about the cost of health food, but radiation, surgery and chemotherapy are much more expensive.

The medical world can fix infections and heart attacks. But when it comes to complex chronic diseases, patients are given pills and sent on their merry way.

In this quarter’s issue, we’re featuring people who, after many years and many doctors, refused to accept their dire prognosis. Although they have different diseases, these people all have one thing in common: They turned to Hippocrates for help. They’ve come to the happy realization that good food is the medicine that can reverse chronic disease.

Can you imagine experiencing complete relief from symptoms by simply changing your diet? Food truly is medicine. Unhealthy food is bad medicine and makes us sick. Conversely, good food is good medicine that can relieve disease and make us energetic and vibrant. The formula is simple: Eliminate bad food, put in good food, and a world of magic happens.

The people in this issue have overcome debilitating illnesses and have restored their health, strength and spirit. I hope their stories inspire you to never settle for poor health due to bad nutrition and lifestyle choices.

One summed it up beautifully: “Living the Hippocrates lifestyle is truly giving back as you give the very best to yourself.” Think about that as you begin this new year.

s health professionals, we are bombarded with the fact that humanity is increasingly ill. For this reason, we have recognized over time that the masses are struggling to just keep themselves well.

Unfortunately, this reduces our ability to flourish, thrive and contribute to the greater society. What is offered as remedies are usually sales pitches that have little to no benefit and, worse, many side effects. Make this year the one that changes it all! Take responsibility for your own health and start the new decade with a whole new lifestyle. You can do it and we are here to help.

What does one do to once and for all abolish pain, disease and turmoil? Comprehensive life renovation is required. Think about your existence like a building that has fallen into disrepair. Some of you have allowed this to go so far that the walls and floors are collapsing. Others just need to fix the windows and repair the holes in the walls. Yet, in either case, major work is required. Be sure to have the top materials and workforce to achieve this work. Quality should be foremost in this pursuit. When the job is finished, you want to be sure that it will last forever and never impose problems again.

The reason why most people are on the perpetual merry-go-round of disorder is that they have not fully committed to a complete demolition and reconstruction. Most health-care practitioners want you to stay in the comfort zone and do not propose effective radical changes. They would rather extract more energy and money when you come back with less than perfect results. Even if you are not a builder, you have to be in charge of what is being built. No one can sit on the sidelines and complain if they have not comprehensively participated in their own recovery.

Just last night in San Francisco, we held a conference that was attended by one of our guests from a decade ago.

Back then, she came crippled and in pain after seeing numerous doctors who endlessly prescribed multitudes of medicines. She also spoke to our team about how she had exceptional discord in her marriage. We all suggested complete reconstruction of her life. She was conscious, brave and adherent, and within a matter of weeks regained her health and ended a disease-causing relationship. It takes more than just the food. It is always a combination of emotions, awareness and body maintenance. This triune of powerful allies will always bring complete recovery once you are befriending them with humble yet powerful submittal. Healing does not take effort; it requires only effective humanity and self-realization.

Assembling a team at Hippocrates of passionate professionals who are fulfilling their own lives by accomplishing effective means with our guests allows us to say that Hippocrates is unique in all the world for people searching for balance, joy and peace. We so often are deeply touched by observing the courage that people have when facing discord. The proof of their allegiance to personal healing results in the elimination of disharmony and physical disease. Inherently, we all possess the inner strength to correct all that we disturb.

All too often, we receive attention when weakened by our own poor decisions, thus creating a self-perpetuating scenario. This is why the first move must be to find fulfillment in other ways than sympathy. Once reaching the well of nourishing abundance, there is no obstacle too large to erase. Our multitudinous approach to raising you to the level where you can see the horizon has been universally effective for recovery. Do not wait another minute to engage yourself in your very existence. Hindsight is 20/20, so let’s make 2020 the year you look back on as the year when the new you was born!

Be well, Brian & Anna Maria Clement, PhD, LN @ClementPhD // @AnnaMariaPhD Recovery | HIPPOCRATESINSTITUTE.ORG |

INTERVIEW WITH DR. BRIAN CLEMENT on the importance of saunas

What is Hippocrates Health Institute?

Hippocrates is the original alternative health mecca. Hippocrates opened in 1956 after our founder, Dr. Ann Wigmore, reversed stage four cancer. She couldn’t hold that information in and she wanted to share and make it available for people – first in the Boston area, and before you knew it, people were coming from all over the world. So, for 64 years, we’ve been helping people to help themselves.

We do this in a multitude of ways.

As the Director since 1980, I’ve been quite interested in always looking at advancements and progress. As I got older, and wiser possibly, I started to realize that diet is one important part of this concern for healing, but it’s not the only process. One has to first and foremost have a passionate, purposeful life. So, we work extensively in the psychological realms with people - not in a traditional way, but in an advanced way. We want people to find themselves rapidly, so they can get on with their life.

We also do detoxification on many levels, not only with good water and food, but with saunas. We have 28 infrared saunas

at the institute. We also have pools, hot and cold plunge pools, steam baths, massage therapy, and colonic therapy.

These go a long way in helping the body recover and heal, so strength is restored and people can maintain their youth.

We also use a lot of advanced electromagnetic and cold laser therapies, CyberScan, advanced Bio-Frequency testing, H-Wave and the list goes on. We believe that what we’re offering is the future of healthcare and medicine.

When did you first experience the benefits of saunas?

It started most likely 35, 40 years ago. I recognized, probably through an athletic window, how wonderful it is to take a sauna after working out. As soon as I started to feel the unbelievable effects of saunas, I started to research it. While in Europe, I went out of my way to attend courses and talk to professors who were experts in this area, specifically in Germany and Finland.

I recognized that to live on this septic planet earth it’s not good enough just to have a clean lifestyle. One has to go the

next step and take a sauna. In my case, it’s 365 days a year.

What are some of the benefits of infrared saunas?

I spent a lot of time over more than two decades studying hyperthermia. It happens that one of my colleagues is a physician (he’s now retired at 92) and has five areas of expertise. When a physician has two areas of expertise, they’re considered extraordinary - he has five. About 25 years ago, the US government approached him to lead six other doctors at universities all over the country in a research study on hyperthermia.

At the end of the five-year study, he came to me and said, “Brian, hyperthermia works. All you have to do is heat the body up one-half degree to start killing microbes and mutagens.” He said, “Tell people to get into an infrared sauna six or seven days a week for 20 to 30 minutes.” And that’s what I tell people. And that’s why I, my wife, and my children, sauna too. Soon my grandchildren will be in the sauna because just to live on the planet earth today, we want to eliminate the things that we’re being exposed to on a daily basis.

How did you select Clearlight Saunas for Hippocrates?

The advantage to the Clearlight Sauna is it’s the only far infrared sauna that has no electromagnetic fields. One of the things I rail about every day to everyone is you don’t want to be around renegade electric because it’s going to weaken your immune system and if you are already sick to begin with, it’s actually going to advance the disease. When Clearlight came into my focus and I recognized the due diligence and extraordinary science that had been done - we actually now have a choice to take a sauna without being zapped, I said, “Well, that’s amazing!”

We decided in one fell swoop to replace all the saunas at Hippocrates with Clearlight Saunas and now we only use Clearlight Saunas. Besides the fact that technologically they’re the best, they detoxify the body 87% more than a traditional sauna. When we’re talking about detoxification, if you’re going to spend 15, 20, 30 minutes of your life in a sauna, well you better get out 87% more without being zapped.

The other thing is, it’s been a delight for Hippocrates. It’s been a privilege to work with Clearlight and to have people who are conscious and understand this is more than just a profit, it’s a way to change people’s lives.

Any final thoughts?

If somebody is looking at maximizing their health, there’s no question that a sauna needs to come into your life. We have done the due diligence for you. For your next birthday, the next Christmas, the next Hanukkah, whatever the occasion may be, your 25th anniversary ~ save up your money and buy a Clearlight Sauna for you and your family. I can tell you it changes people’s lives. You’ll be more relaxed, you’ll think clearer, and you’ll have less of a burden in the body.

Thank you Dr. Brian Clement!

he oldest vegetarian restaurant in the western world (holding the Guinness World record) was founded in 1898 in Zurich, Switzerland. The restaurant has been managed by the Hiltl family ever since. Now, Rolf Hiltl, the 4th generation great grandson, has made it a hot spot for

the conscious, hip and health minded.

Haus Hiltl has been a pioneer in many arenas.

The restaurant had the first kitchen with electricity in the country of Switzerland in 1933, enabling these plant based visionaries to take a giant leap with the advent of this exciting technology.

Great grandmother Hiltl spent time in India, bringing the traditional cuisine back and, in the 1970’s,

started to feed the countries mountain dwellers spicy vegetarian dishes.

In the 1990’s, a full renovation created the sprawling and comfortable environment that people from around the world enjoy dining in today.

Not only is this mecca of health popular, it is living food friendly (only local and biodynamic choices) and a place to meet like-minded plant and planet lovers.

ASK BRIAN

I am a very clean eater and stay away from gluten and dairy and all processed foods but eat seafood and organic meat. I battle with arthritis in my hands and my daughter says it’s because of the meat in my diet.

Is this true?

THE VISIONARY BEHIND THE HIPPOCRATES LIFESTYLE ANSWERS YOUR QUESTIONS.

—Anonymous Your daughter must love you and is certainly knowledgeable.

There is no such thing as clean fish or flesh. In my books “Killer Fish,” “Poison Poultry” and “Life Force,” I describe the fraud we call free range and wild caught. Nitrogen and the two acids that are in all animal-based foods are the main dietary precipitants to your inflammatory disorder. Isn’t it worth a try to release that pain by subsiding totally from animal protein?

After a 12-year battle, and using other resources (in Switzerland, Mexico, L.A., et. al.), I became healthy again following Lyme disease and mercury poisoning. Is it possible to come to Hippocrates in the winter months for just a 10- or 12-day stay to partake of your plentiful sunshine, wondrous wheatgrass and raw foods, clinical analysis and treatment? The reason I ask is that I seem to have already covered some of the modalities that are part of your 21-day program.

Thank you in advance for your reply and comments.

—Frank Farwell, Marquette, Michigan Although Hippocrates is noted for helping people with Lyme disease, our comprehensive program attracts healthy people from around the world who are seeking deeper knowledge and a full-spectrum, comprehensive environment where they can flourish. We strongly advise a minimum of a two-week program since the normal transformation time is 21 days, which affords exactly what’s mentioned in the name, “Life Transformation Program.”

You may be surprised at the things you will learn here in those extra few days as we are continually progressing in the conquest of optimal health.

ASK BRIAN ANYTHING! HOW@hippocratesinst.org Brian Clement PhD, LN Co-director of Hippocrates Health Institute

Hi Brian, I see in the last issue of Healing Our World that we can ask you anything. I have two questions.

Will you please offer a cause and remedy for dark under-eye circles and frequent canker sores (not cold sores) in a young girl. She’s had these issues since she was 3 and she’s now 7. We have eliminated all gluten, dairy, meat, sugar, processed foods (other than organic corn tortillas, chips and sometimes salsa).

We eat lots of beans, greens and veggies. She gets good sleep and good exercise. I keep researching and I have not been able to determine what we are doing wrong or not doing right. Thank you!

—Jessica Dark circles indicate liver concerns when there is no puffiness and kidney issues when there is. Not always, but preemies seem to endure this more than others. Our HHI Become line offers a cream called Become a Visionary that can help alleviate the visible effects.

Canker sores are the result of high arginine (protein) in the diet. All corn products have high amounts of this, which reduce lysine quantities. Most likely, this is why she suffers from these sores. Also, taking supplemental lysine in an ionic liquid form may offset these outbreaks.

I know you have been out of Chlorella for a long time and had been in the process of creating your own for LifeGive. Is Sun Chlorella less quality now? What makes your brand the best? I have been using Sun Chlorella and wanted to make sure I’m getting the best on the market.

—Anonymous Sun Chlorella is a premium quality as is LifeGive Chlorella.

Both are tested for purity, nutritional effect and shelf life. The cost is less for the Hippocrates brand since we do not have a multimillion-dollar advertising budget. Otherwise, the products are very similar.

My doctor recommended Botox for the fine lines and wrinkles I’m not happy with on my face. I don’t want to inject things into my body that may cause harm. Is Botox safe?

Hi Brian, I am considering getting an affordable/ portable infrared sauna.

What are your thoughts on these, instead of the large wooden ones?

Thanks for all you do!

—Anonymous

—Amy Désirée Goldstein

Personally, I would not take Botox since it is a bacterium that paralyzes tissue. There are other fillers and stem cells that many people prefer. Whatever your choice, continue to consume adequate amounts of healthy fluids and use our Become personal care line, which feeds the face and prevents oxidative stress on your skin in the first place.

Any sauna is much better than none at all and infrared is even more helpful. We prefer the ClearLight since it doesn’t emit any radiation. Anna Maria and I take saunas 365 days a year to help detox all of the things we are exposed to simply by living in the environment that human technological advances have created.

“We stand on the cusp of either a dark or bright future.”

—Brian Clement

P

rohibition from science due to the enormous economic requirement it takes to accomplish research has put multinational corporations in the driver’s seat of practically all universities, laboratories, research centers and academia.

It is the old story of the “haves” versus the “have nots” that has eroded one of the beacons of light into a flickering neon sign used to push products and sell ideologies.

Convincing non-scientists worldwide that the platinum standard is disseminated from a group of highly educated scientists has bamboozled the masses into believing in its legitimacy. Everything from the newest drug to the 2,000 chemicals created yearly permeates our bodies and environment, decreasing humanity’s ability to live free and healthy lives.

This dilemma can be resolved only when we place integrity and legitimacy at the foundation of research. Cherry picking methods to make a point is not authentic or effective. At this point, the only solution is to review and analyze meta studies (numbers of research papers particular to a certain subject.) Although this is laborious, it is the only way to determine truth. As an example, there may be 100 studies on why 5G is a positive advancement, each of the hundred studies predict different outcomes, yet when comparing all of them, there are certain common threads that are discovered in every case that reveal authentic findings.

We know that 5G is a devastating technology and, unfortunately, that will be discovered only after the disastrous health effects begin to arise from its usage. We may find that in the current body of evidence in all of the studies, if we were to look hard enough.

Does this mean the scientists are dishonest?

No, science is not an absolute. They are licensed to use any means possible in proving the point that they have been asked (paid) to discover.

For the average person, it may be disheartening to know that there is one more thing not to trust. We should not run away from this extraordinary tool, but rather rekindle its roots, discovering futuristic advance-

ments. Whenever I discuss a subject with a scientist, they are unwilling to base any opinion on their own experience and use empirical evidence for all of their thoughts.

This robotic approach is at best absurd, and at worst harmful. How is it that we have elevated science to such a lofty level that it robs personal opinion from educated people? With all of that said, we estimate that there still is about 5 percent of science that is funded without ulterior motives. This is the reservoir of purity that we can drink from and be perpetually hydrated. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to forage through the weeds and find it.

“Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler” — Albert Einstein

Here at Hippocrates Health Institute, we do not conduct formal research studies, but instead have utilized clinical observation on the effects that our lifestyle has had on hundreds of thousands of people for more than 64 years. Although you cannot publish these studies and get into the competitive arena of so-called legitimate science, I believe the validity of our work is authentic and provable on the human level.

Most doctors and scientists who are part of the status quo think like paupers who want to be approved by their colleges, so they expend enormous amounts of energy on being accepted rather than pioneering and radically shifting the future of science in a new pristine direction. Creating standards that prevent the mass majority from participating in the advancement of humanity is an arrogant, inhumane and foolish pursuit.

Oftentimes, a nonconventional figure, like

Newton, establishes a whole new mind set to relish. The Teslas, Planks, Einsteins and Elon Musks of the world were not going along with the program but rewriting it and placing it on the new theater of advancement. All too often we forget that the renegades seem to be the only ones with enough self-respect and internal fortitude to open the window to new realities. How sad it would be if the Wright brothers decided it was too difficult to fly or NASA said reaching the moon was impossible. What I have observed in my half-century of work is that the outcasts most often cast new light on the path of progress.

Do not get stuck in regurgitating construed scenarios from constrained institutions of science. Dig deeply into their work, discovering the very jewels that they did not recognize from their own unimaginable pursuits. Authentic, unadulterated science is more about consistent results that fix and heal current anomalies. All that are not contributing to this very important endeavor are not worthy of being called professionals.

Reengage the sciences so they can find new resolutions to old obstacles. Never stop progressing and always remember that all can improve. Ultimate is a frail concept conjured up by exhausted, non-imaginative people who are unwilling to go the mile.

Sadly, science today is more deceptive than not having any “scientific facts” at all.

We stand on the cusp of either a dark or bright future. Our very existence depends on us making the right choices. Do not think for one moment that it is too late; it is actually very early on in the game to head toward a positive future. Participate by demanding truth, not only from others but most importantly from yourself. Eradicate hopelessness by inserting hopefulness; not the kind that is mystical, but the type that is real. Is science real? Yes. Yet we have to make the scientists who pursue it remember the obligation they have in advancing humanity.

Make this new year a starting point for the future of good, ethical science. Help 2020 start a new direction toward scientifically proven truth.

omprehensive Health & Wellness Regeneration, is being opened up to include The Chronic Immune Deficiencies program (CIDP), a Lifestyle Medicine Program for autoimmune and immunocompromised disorders.This CID Program builds upon the renowned Hippocrates Health Institute (HHI) model that for more than 60 years has successfully helped people activate their own healing potential for “getting well.” Emerging evidence indicates that impaired cellular

metabolism and respiration, along with a suppressed immune system, are the defining characteristics of many chronic diseases. HHI’s successful living plant-based nutritional protocol has served as a worldwide Lifestyle Medicine Intervention Model, which, in the three-week Life Transformation Program (LTP), quickly promotes detoxification and restoration of a healthy immune system and balanced metabolic profile necessary for regaining health. All chronic illnesses, which can even include cancer, are shown to have common cofactors and biomarkers that can cause both immune suppression and metabolic biological dysregulation.

Some of these systemic imbalances listed below can disturb the healthy milieu of the “biological terrain”: • A low biological energy state with decreased oxygenation systemically for functional utility • Increased inflammatory markers • Increased acidity • High toxicity burden

• Suppressed immune system

• Dysregulated glucose and insulin

• Hormonal imbalance

• Hypercoagulability and elevated fibrinogen level

• Imbalance of gastrointestinal flora

• Chronic stress physiology (dysregulated cortisol, adrenal fatigue, and parasympathetic system weakness)

Our goal is to help people regenerate their immune system and optimize bioregulation and balance, so their healing mechanisms are up-regulated and their metabolic health is naturally restored.

It has been shown that there is a strong correlation between stress and psychological factors and chronic diseases, which influences the neurophysiology involved in these metabolic pathways. Chronic stress impairs immune functioning, increases systemic acidity, weakens adrenal functioning, dysregulates normal cell signaling, and decreases optimal cellular oxygenation and energy production. Chronic stress produces a “low-energy physiology.”

The CID Program is an intensive one-week program integrated into the LTP under the direction of Dr. Janet Hranicky, a leading pioneer in the field of psychoneuroimmunology and Swiss biological medicine. Dr. Hranicky was personally trained and certified by a giant in the field of clinical psychology, Dr. Taibi Kahler, of Purdue University, in his internationally recognized Process Communication Model, which NASA used in the selection of astronauts for more than 20 years. Dr. Hranicky adapted the Kahler model and developed an application in personalized stress management for health care: “The Key to Me in Getting Well.” Each participant in the CID Program takes an online personality pattern inventory and receives their own personalized profile report, which Dr. Hranicky utilizes in her feedback to each guest.

The CID Program includes a number of targeted regenerative therapies and educational training sessions. It includes expert staff members and an educational lecture on the immune system by Robert D. Willix, Jr. M.D., medical director of energy medicine at Hippocrates Health Institute, and by medical expert Dipnarine Maharaj, M.D., hematologist/oncologist.

Dr. Hranicky personally leads and directs six group treatment/educational sessions (15 hours), which incorporate her extensive background in the fields of psychoneuroimmunology, bioenergetic medicine, and Swiss biological medicine. She founded the American Health Institute Inc. in 1989 in Dallas.

The institute is known for its innovative work in the field of anti-aging and regeneration medicine.

Bioenergetic therapies include four 2 hour circuit with Leslie ValleMontoya, M.D., during the CID Program schedule.

• Low vitamin D levels • Weakness of the body’s capacity to effectively drain toxins (liver, kidney, and lymph)

Dr. Valle-Montoya also is certified in Swiss biological medicine and has been an associate staff and research team member of the Comprehensive Cancer Wellness Program. Alongside Dr. Hranicky, Dr. Valle-Montoya has helped develop the transition of this new program. Dr. Valle-Montoya focuses on restoring and building participants’ parasympathetic nervous system to a healthier state.

In order to address the systemic imbalances the CID Program includes: • 1 individual consultation with Dr. Hranicky

State-of-the-art biofeedback testing with Leslie Valle-Montoya, M.D., includes: • Bioimpedance test: Method of assessing your body composition and ability to regenerate healthy cells. It also analyzes the intra- and extracellular water levels. The program naturally helps to correct metabolic imbalances by lowering toxicity levels while supporting the liver, kidney, and lymph.

• Heart rate variability test: Measure of the gap between heartbeats; biofeedback to assess the health of the autonomic nervous system.

Simply put, no other place in the world has the depth and breadth of this uniquely formulated program for life and health transformation.

The Chronic Immune Deficiencies Program: A one-week program integrated into the three-week Life Transformation Program. Held exclusively throughout the year at Hippocrates Health Institute, West Palm Beach.

magine my surprise when I recently heard the voice of my long-lost high school girlfriend on the other end of the phone. Karen was that one who kept me in constant stitches as a teenager, whether we were performing weepy songs in swing choir, another zany theatrical production or running a relay together in track. Needless to say, I was giddy with delight as it had been decades since we’d been in touch. Giddy, that is, until she shared her disturbing news: ovarian cancer. Although our paths had separated nearly 40 years earlier, as fate would have it, Karen and I regrettably now shared a new type of sisterhood: cancer. I was so grateful she had reached out to me, but even more pleased when she told me she remembered my story.

You see, in March 1995, I was given my own devastating news after reporting mysterious health symptoms to my doctor for over a year. Stage four lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease, became my new identity. As it had infiltrated my lungs, vertebrae and upper body lymph system, I was encouraged to quickly seek out treatment. After three months of chemotherapy, and a truckload of side effects in tow, I believed the worst was over and that I could continue with life as normal. Wrong! Within a few short months, I felt a recurrent, and now more aggressive, tumor invading my chest cavity.

My medical team insisted that I now take highdose chemotherapy followed by a bone marrow

In March, I received a diagnosis of ovarian cancer.

This is the moment my story takes a slightly different turn than you would expect.

Twenty years earlier, I was having a wonderful phone date with a friend from high school. Neither of us lived in our hometown any longer.

She shared her story of cancer and how she had found an alternative treatment to it at the Hippocrates Health Institute in Florida.

It was the most uplifting and amazing story of a new, healing and healthy second chance at life. I told everyone about her! I was so inspired that I knew exactly what I would do if I ever received news of

transplant. Without it, they told me, I had less than a year to live. There was no guarantee I would survive the procedure, but if I did, one thing was certain: I would never have children. After listening to a deeper intuition, I opted to seek out a less invasive plan. Thus began my quest for knowledge on alternative healing therapies, which ultimately led me to find the Hippocrates Health Institute.

Here I experienced an environment that allowed my body to heal itself. I learned the importance of making lifestyle changes to assist not only in physical detoxification and healing but also emotional wellness in order to achieve perfect health. In time, spiritual work would require my attention, as well. What a beautiful, perfect storm! It’s funny how something so devastating can also bring a host of gifts with it.

Within the first year on the program, I was blessed with the greatest gift imaginable: a child growing inside of me! While my doctors strongly discouraged the pregnancy (and claimed I would not live long enough to deliver), I was tenacious with my efforts, my faith and my belief in the Hippocrates program. My son is now 22 years old and his light still leaves me speechless at times. I have been cancer-free since 1998 and look forward to my huge 25-year anniversary of life at HHI this year!

In the meantime, I get to share this profound life-changing program with the most beautiful souls. Karen, I hand the baton to you.

cancer in my life. Fast-forward to March 15, 2019, and the moment that should have been terrifying but wasn’t. I had a plan in place and knew what I was going to do. I got through surgery and healed enough for the surgeon to give me the goahead to travel five weeks later.

Arriving at HHI was like stepping on a “movie set” where the story of my healing was to play out. The beauty and peace there create an extremely healing environment.

The food! I wouldn’t have thought I could love to eat this way, but I have never felt better from eating in my life! I can’t say enough about the kind and caring staff who really just want you to get healthy and will do anything to make that happen. I was fortunate

to have my high school friend, Marcia, there with me for a good portion of my stay. A blessed reunion of healing!

I made lifelong friends. And after I left, their support, as well as the resources and support of everyone at HHI, kept me going every day. I live in a small town where I own a business, and they have all rallied to offer me assistance in keeping many of the therapies I received at HHI. This is how I live in my daily life. HHI is becoming a common name around here and my wish is to pay forward the confidence and peace that was so important to me at that pivotal moment when I learned my life would change. For me, it has changed for the better, and I am very, very grateful.

Healed & Transformed 2020 RECOVERY STORIES

My recovery

JOURNEY Battling breast cancer through faith.

I

| B Y KRISTEN VELEZ |

first heard about Hippocrates in March 2015, when I received my first breast cancer diagnosis. A very brave, dear friend from work, Stephanie Fuller, encouraged me to explore Hippocrates before making a surgery or chemo decision to see how much healing could be found there.

I have to be really honest and say that I was too afraid of the idea of making big life changes, so I used finances as an excuse to not pursue holistic help and I proceeded with the traditional recommendations of a double mastectomy followed by several rounds of different kinds of chemo.

Ultimately, my body didn’t react well to the chemo, and three years later, I found myself going back to my “last resort” of Hippocrates in order to save my life from the inflammatory effects of treatment.

What a relief to find out upon arrival that Hippocrates Health Institute felt more like Hippocrates Resort & Spa and the people— wow—the people were just so welcoming.

Somehow, it felt like home.

The environment that Brian, Anna Maria and their amazing team have created really quickens the body’s healing process, as it helps remove the major blocks to healing and allows someone the time and space to find more. This may very well be the first time these people (guests) take time out of their “busy” lives to focus on themselves and what they need, as was the case for myself.

I really opened to all that Hippocrates offered in May 2018. I fell in love with the people there and felt so honored to have them work with me or work on me, whatever the treatment may have been. It was not lost on me that every single staff member I

32

| HIPPOCRATESINSTITUTE.ORG | Recovery

interacted with felt this “job” was their gift and calling in life, so they did it with such passion and love. It was such a model of what wholeness could look like if I opened to it.

I learned so much from Brian and Anna Maria and their team of knowledgeable staff members from around the world. I trust and can attest to the value of the Hippocrates lifestyle and protocol to allow real healing and true vitality; probably something most of us haven’t even tasted. It’s the feeling of really firing on all cylinders!

I went home empowered and equipped, but the health struggles were coming to a head several months later, and four kidney stone surgeries landed me ablaze with the arthritis/inflammation issues again. Still struggling with the infection-induced IBS-D (irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea) that came on as a result of the immunosuppressants and nonresistance to simultaneous E. coli and cryptosporidium gut infections, my tummy was still unhappy and so was my entire body.

In December 2018, I landed back at Hippocrates thanks to my sweet mother, Carol Webb, who noted the downward spiral and felt Hippocrates could help again so she sent me down for another two-week visit. I opened to what Hippocrates offered, and yet again they saved my life, as what I learned in my time there helped me direct the University of Michigan doctors at home to find my breast cancer recurrence on March 1, 2019, one day short of my four-year anniversary.

I received the same news very differently because of my time at Hippocrates and the integrations in my life. “Your biopsy came back positive for ductal mammary carcinoma.” I had her repeat it a few times, then I

walked into the living room and sat down next to my 13-year-old son and began to tap on my meridian points (EFT), whimpering the following with tears streaming down my face: “Even though Dr. Hendriks just called and told me I have breast cancer again, I will choose to fully love and accept myself, and to trust the Lord and all of His goodness in my life. And even though right now I am feeling very afraid of the cancer in my body … I choose to relax and to trust and allow all of the Lord’s plans and goodness in my life.”

A few moments later, I was discussing the situation with my 13-year-old and my husband, no one in a panic, mostly because I was calm. This was in stark contrast to the several glasses of wine and chocolate I consumed and the freaking out and calling people for four hours after the last diagnosis.

In fact, I had no desire to tell anyone about the cancer, mostly because I didn’t want to build up the fear through everyone around me with whom I shared the (first) diagnosis.

I phoned a trusted girlfriend, Ilona Nagy, in Atlanta, whom I knew would help me not give in to the fear. We made plans to

meet up in Nashville as there just happened to be a conference coming up the next weekend called the Sounds of Glory, which interested me because one of our favorite online mentors from Wales, Justin Abraham, happened to be speaking there and I knew he didn’t often come to the States. My friend and I didn’t even talk about the cancer and were determined to meet up in Nashville for the weekend conference and stay in a nearby cabin.

While I was waiting to go, we did the bone scans, CT scans, and I had about eight teeth repaired with porcelain caps after breaking them when my jaw went out of alignment with the inflammation and arthritis from the

chemo. I was just hoping and praying I could make it on the plane and get to the event with all that was going on in my body.

I suspected the cancer had come back once Hippocrates showed concern in December, and I noted the lymphadenopathy (elevated lymph nodes throughout my body), very honestly, the re-diagnosis was the kick in the butt. I needed to decide whether I was going to keep going back to my old habits when I felt wounded, afraid, in too much pain, or was I going to truly open up and learn to LOVE myself and others, to love and appreciate the Creator and allow His love to flow through me. Wholeness. I wanted it. And I went to Nashville ready to open to it.

It was there in Nashville the weekend of March 15, 2019, through a beautiful, heavenly environment facilitated by the wonderful worship leaders of the Well Church and the phenomenal speakers at the event, Justin, Ray and Paul Keith, that my heart experienced wholeness for the first time when I was encouraged to really trust his goodness, to work through my fear of intimacy, to forgive myself of 43 years of self-judgment and

balance out the body in its state of extreme stress and exhaustion. I am now resting into Dr. Tai’s protocol, which I am loving, and it feels amazing. I am working with my University of Michigan doctors to postpone follow-up testing once we allow this protocol to have its effects on my body.

I have opened my heart wider than I ever have and I am experiencing levels of joy and bliss that I feel cancer could not stand up to!

But I would be a liar if I told you that I didn’t still struggle with fear, confusion, anxiety and depression. Somehow, these places are familiar to me, as horrendous as they feel, and so the current recovery journey for me is to be gentle with myself and to learn to practice stillness and quieting my mind and body enough to be able to listen for real wisdom and to stop trying to fix things. The striving I do now is only to get back to peace, to relax into rest and trust again, instead of picking up the provision and then trying to figure out a way to use it for my advantage or still fix it on my own.

Isaiah 40:31 says, “But those who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength. They will

barely know me and somehow have prayed for me. Thank you.

I find so much joy in sharing this life with each of you, so to that end, I send out this story, to call out in the sometimes very dark world full of so many distractions and stimulations, that there IS PEACE and HE IS FOUND in the waiting, in the stillness, and trust me, even though the quieting seems to be so hard for us overperformers especially, the reward for pressing on is very, very great.

Hosea 3:5 says, “They will come trembling to the Lord and to His goodness in the last days.” I have tasted and experienced the goodness of God and I will spend my life learning to be still so that I can know (meaning an experience) the presence and power of God in my life. I will strive only to rest harder in who I am, whose I am and for what purposes He created me.

This recovery is a journey, not a destination. I am so grateful to my Hippocrates family for creating the most beautiful cocoon environment for us caterpillars to tuck into to begin the transformation process.

to turn into his presence, which, of course, was there all along as all of heaven is quite literally locked inside of us just ready to open to the invitation. Rev 3:20 says, “Behold, I stand at the door, and knock; if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come into him, and will sup with him, and he with me.”

Upon returning, I was so fortunate to meet with Dr. Paul Ling Tai, who is an intelligent and talented physician that Hippocrates wanted me to follow up with to look at less invasive cancer treatment protocols. It was obvious this was the provision I needed, as Dr. Tai truly understood the big picture of what was going on in my body and how much hormones are at play and how to

When I choose to look outside of my circumstances and myself, I can see a beautiful world full of people I love. I am so grateful for all of the wonderful people who have been a part of this healing journey for me, from the many, many doctors in Michigan and Atlanta to my amazing, supportive family, to my awesome friends and those of you who

Everyone should do the Life Transformation program at least once to experience true vitality. There is so much at the Institute to experience if you open to it. I want to go back for more as soon as possible and I highly recommend breaking through the fear into transformation, as it is the only path to real freedom.

I love you and I am so excited that we get to walk these roads together. Thank you for your contribution in my life. Be blessed.

hen I was in second grade, I was diagnosed with salmonella food poisoning and hospitalized for a week. I clearly remember being held down to get an IV. My first health awakening occurred when I was 8 years old. I found out that I had high cholesterol.

At the time, I learned to read the ingredients on packages of chips to make sure there was no trans fats. My cholesterol returned to normal. However, my “healthy eating” stopped there.

When I was in high school, my dad was taking a medication that raised his liver enzymes.

I searched the internet and learned that milk thistle can

lower liver enzymes (which it did). Heart disease and strokes run in my family, so I thought it was inevitable that I would eventually get the same. As far as I can remember, I had eczema, skin rashes and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

Before getting married (14 years ago at age 25), I traveled to Eastern Europe. Upon my return, I had strep throat, bronchitis and a sinus infection. I was taking steroids and antibiotics as it was too hard to swallow anything. Shortly after I completed the dose of antibiotics, I began to have severe and paralyzing stomach pains with terrible bowel movements. I lost over 18 pounds in a month. It turns out that I was diagnosed

| HIPPOCRATESINSTITUTE.ORG | Recovery

with salmonella again, giardia and shigella parasites all at the same time. Externally, I looked OK, but I constantly felt tired and lethargic.

After treating the parasites (which didn’t completely work), I decided that I needed to take care of a health issue that I had had since I was a teenager. The issue was high blood pressure.

I thought I was eating correctly, including lots of meat and protein in my diet, and I was exercising on a regular basis. I was put on medication to lower my blood pressure. I quickly noticed that my blood pressure would go up and down like a roller coaster.

I often had to sit down because I felt as if I would pass out. During this time, I had various tests

on my heart and renal arteries (in my kidneys) to determine the source of my high blood pressure. On a return trip to my doctor, he informed me that there was no physical root they could see as to why the BP was so high. He checked my pulse and saw it was high and recommended a second medication to lower my heart rate. This was crazy, as I never had a fast pulse.

I immediately told the doctor to take me off the blood pressure medicine if they didn’t know the reason why it was high—logically, I didn’t want to cover up the symptoms without knowing the source. He raised his voice and yelled at me. He told me that if I didn’t stay on the BP medicine, I would die before seeing my

grandchildren. I immediately left (never to return) and slowly tapered off the medication.

I decided that if the Western medical system couldn’t find the root of my problem, I would do it alone. It was at that moment that I had my second awakening regarding health. I started reading many books and e-books.

I also spent hundreds of hours reading websites, watching videos, and so on. Like most things on the internet, there is tons of misinformation that are not based on science. It was at this time I first heard about Hippocrates through a friend.

I tried many different diets over the years to see the effects.

This includes Paleo, the Blood Type Diet, Raw Veganism,

vegetarianism, and more. I randomly came across a book about health on Amazon and read the reviews. The first review stated that cutting out grains corrected their high blood pressure. I was tested for celiac (it was negative), but I decided to try it. Very quickly, my BP dropped to the normal zone and my skin rashes slowly started going away. I had terrible eczema in a few places on my body.

Fast-forward 14 years. I have been learning nonstop this entire time about lifestyle medicine. I successfully addressed the emotional issues affecting my body and completed a full parasite cleanse and round of colonics. I successfully passed many parasites, which be-

gan improving my sleep and well-being. As my consciousness and self-awareness improved, I began naturally moving closer to the information and lifestyle I was seeking.

Did you know that the average medical school in the United States teaches one to four hours of diet and nutrition over four years? Most doctors are not interested in preventing disease, only reducing the current symptoms. When’s the last time a doctor asked you what you had for breakfast or how you’re dealing with stress?

Several months ago, I signed up for the Lifestyle Medicine Coach program at Hippocrates Health Institute, and the changes in my life are amazing—in-

cluding losing 20 pounds, ridding my body of eczema and having more energy. Prior to beginning the program, I didn’t understand the science behind the diet or grasp the nuances and reasons for living this way. I can tell you firsthand that every positive small change makes huge differences in how a person feels. I have since cut out the only remaining animal product in my life, fish.

It has been my goal for 14 years to eventually coach and teach others how to take back control over their mental, physical, spiritual and emotional well-being. In a short time, I will begin coaching people on how to slow down aging, feel better than ever, reverse disease and prevent future disease, all based on the latest science from Hippocrates.

This is my passion. The course seemed expensive at first, but I now understand how much effort, time and love Hippocrates placed into making this course. I highly recommend it to anyone who truly wants to understand how Hippocrates has assisted countless people in drumming up the inner strength and awareness to conquer any and all diseases of the body and mind. If you choose to accept responsibility for everything in your life, there is no sea too large to cross and no mountain too high to climb.

A

LIFE journey

Hippocrates Health Institute helped a North Carolina woman undergo physical and spiritual change.

M

elinda Matthews, of North Carolina, gets a little emotional when talking about Hippocrates Health Institute.

She has been there twice and has seen lives change— including her own.

“Hippocrates is hope,” she says. “It’s a refuge of hope for people who want to stay healthy

and well and it’s a refuge of hope for people with diseases to heal and cure whatever they’re diagnosed with.”

Melinda first learned about Hippocrates in 1993 when her daughter, Alexandria, was battling brain cancer. At the time, she was seeking alternative methods to treat her daughter.

Unfortunately, Alexandria died eight months after her diagnosis and never made it to HHI.

But the philosophy behind Hippocrates always intrigued her and, following a divorce in 2005, Melinda decided to enroll in the program. Because she works in advertising for a health and wellness company, she wanted to look and feel her best.

During the three-week Life Transformation Program, she was equipped with valuable knowledge on how to promote the well-being of her body,

mind and soul. Melinda was introduced to a new eating regimen consisting of raw, plantbased food such as snap peas, cucumbers, carrots and sprouts.

She also attended yoga and spirituality classes and enjoyed an infrared sauna twice a day.

“The first two or three days you go through a little detox because you’re changing your eating regimen, but by the end of three weeks I did not want to leave,” she says. “I was amazed at how I underwent a total transformation.”

Her experience was so wonderful that Melinda returned 14 years later. She felt like she needed a “reboot” in life. She had spent years raising three children and needed some time for herself.

An amazing journey removes physical and mental obstacles.

ave you ever stopped to wonder about how amazing your body is at what it does? How intricate its daily functioning must be to create such remarkably unique life in each individual? This is the story of how I dived into the intertwined pathways of just that.

During my sophomore year of college, I studied speech pathology and audiology with a minor in psychology, which is something I had a vested interest in because both of my brothers grew up with a stutter.

38

| HIPPOCRATESINSTITUTE.ORG | Recovery

An amazing fact I learned during my time on this path was that a stutter is not due to a physiological issue but rather a mental and/ or emotional trigger that affects a person’s speech. It’s fascinating, but the issue is very hard to treat from a speech therapist’s perspective. While I was already spending some time on psychological matters as my minor in school, this discovery led to more questions that I soon would find myself in dire need of answering.

As the summer turned into fall, I came down with a sore throat, something I

accredited to the change of weather and common back-to-school cold season. However, I couldn’t seem to shake the symptoms despite many various attempts with both allopathic and alternative holistic methods. I knew I didn’t want to get my tonsils removed as the doctors suggested. Since they are your first line of defense in immunity, I did everything I knew to hang in there. After about two months in an almost constant state of pain—low energy and swollen tonsils—I reached the point where it hurt to swallow and even breathe at times. I hit my limit and

began to mentally prepare myself to have my tonsils removed. As a last form of desperation, my mother had me fly out to meet her friend, who she was confident would be able to turn my health around.

I spent about a week straight receiving several treatments a day of a procedure called cellular resonance technique (CRT).

At first, we worked on elements of my health that were observable physical symptoms like swelling, pain, low energy and immunity. But the more we worked, the more my system veered toward more conceptual elements like speaking my truth, owning my voice and doing things for myself. I detoxed for an entire week as if I had the flu and then returned for more sessions to finish working on the remaining struggles surrounding my ailment.

These treatments were not like anything I had experienced before. At the base of this method is kinesiology, which is used to muscle-test a person and see what physical reaction there is to mental and/or emotional stimuli. Other elements like breathing rhythm, eye direction, acupressure and numerology also have been integrated into the technique. Originally a chiropractor, the gentleman I was working with had discovered that using this technique rendered his normal adjustments unnecessary. The body literally would start realigning itself once stress, tension and the effects of trauma were addressed.

Over the next year or so, I dedicated my time and energy to learning this technique.

If it could turn my health and the direction of my life around, I wanted to continue down that path and help others do the same.

This has been my mission ever since.

What I discovered was that the mind has much more control over the body than we realize, especially the unconscious and subconscious portions. If we struggle to pay the bills each month, our body can’t tell the difference between that and running from a bear or a tiger. Stress is stress. Period.

Given this knowledge, we can delve deeper still into the mind and its inventory-like behavior of the world around us. From the moment you are conceived until the present time frame, your entire system is set up to take note of your environment. Each sense is recorded and stored and connected to other stimuli, and the mind learns patterns to prepare you for future encounters with

each stimulus. Essentially, any time your body goes through a pleasant or unpleasant experience, your system will take note of your surroundings and prepare you for future encounters when anything from those environments is detected again. For pleasant experiences like grandma’s cooking, soft blankets or a fresh drink on a hot day, you have a positive reaction, and signals that you are safe and happy are sent through your brain and body.

However, in any stressful or traumatic situation, big or small, with even the perception that an event will be stressful, the scales will tip in the opposite direction and consume energy preparing to fight whatever it may anticipate as a threat. Over time, this stimulus can build up to immense amounts, stored in your body as tense muscles, for example. If you have ever wondered why a baby can sleep with its head in its lap and be fine, where you would have a serious kink in your neck, this is why! They don’t have nearly as many programmed patterns to respond to. That being said, how does one reboot?

The answer is in the question. Similar to how a computer will freeze up and needs to be restarted to function properly again, your brain does, too. CRT was able to reboot and help me retrain my brain to understand that not everything out there is as scary as my brain originally labeled it. With a fresh start and a new perspective, I now had energy freed up to develop new healthy connections and habits.

I went on to earn a doctorate in naturopathic medicine at the age of 23, followed by a massage license and much more training exploring the mind, body and the link between the two. It has now been more than two years since I started working at Hippocrates Health Institute and I am so grateful to the community that exists here.

When most people hear about the once deep-rooted trauma of my past, they often are surprised by the happy-go-lucky person standing in front of them. I’ve chosen to work through the physical, mental and emotional elements of health, to be uncomfortable at times in order to grow and learn to appreciate the little things in life. I have built another family on a much sounder foundation. The connections I have forged with others and self-care time I’ve insisted on for myself are true blessings.

Being on campus at HHI alone has held

many benefits for my daily routine as well as preventive and holistic care and education. When I first started, I participated in the Employee Life Transformation Program and jump-started my journey. Nutrition was essential, of course, and the sprouts, green juice and wheatgrass did a wonderful job of detoxing my system and bringing fresh nutrients into my body. I regularly visit the saunas and mineral pools and take part in the morning fitness classes on campus.

During my time here, I have worked with quite a few of the therapists for bodywork as well as mental and emotional well-being.

Some of these include Soma, Thai, deep tissue, lymphatic and holistic massages. Colonics, shamanic sessions, One Brain, Emotion Code, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), HeartMath, reiki and EMDR combined with meditation are some of the other useful treatments I have received. The workshops I attended, such as Transformational Breath and Family Constellation, were particularly impactful. Fire ceremonies have been a wonderful outlet to let go of unwanted stress as an individual and a community as well. To be honest, there is very little on campus that I have not tried at least once. Every little bit of change has made a step in the direction of health and happiness.

During my second year at HHI, I met a young man who came here from Canada with his mother to do the brand-new fitness program. After he completed his three weeks, he continued to stay on and volunteer. Upon befriending many of the same individuals I had, we ended up spending quite a bit of time together and started seeing one another. He went on to study at the living light institute in California for raw vegan culinary arts and became an even more amazing chef by specializing in vegan cuisine. I knew that he was going to be a significant person in my life, but little did I know how much! Fast-forward to current day and you find us happily married with two puppies and plans for little ones down the road. We have overcome many obstacles in our time together and look forward to seeing one another through the rest of what life has to hold for each of us.

Thank you to everyone who has had an impact on my journey. I cherish each and every one of you from Hippocrates. Our guests and my peer coworkers have become a true family to me.

Transformed Hippocrates gave me my life back in battling obesity, high blood pressure. | B Y GUY BALANCIA |

I

was 340 pounds when I first went to Hippocrates. I was at my wits’ end. I didn’t know where to get the help that I needed. I had tried every exercise program and every diet out there. I was looking for a place I could go to and stay for a couple of weeks.

Basically, I was online looking for a fat camp. I was looking for a place to lose weight and get healthy, but everything I found on the computer was beautiful people running up mountains and running on beaches. I needed something for my health.

I had a herniated disc, swollen legs and I needed a place that dealt with my medical issues.

Then Hippocrates, by the grace of God, came up on my computer as a wellness center and health institute.

I took the first step and made the call. It suited everything that I needed. It had the doctors, nurses, therapies and the medical end of it.

The first time I was there, Hurricane Irma hit, and they took amazing care of all of us.

We had to fly home earlier, but they called me back to continue the program. It was nice that they cared about me.

Hippocrates is a very, very special place with wonderful people, staff and guests.

| HIPPOCRATESINSTITUTE.ORG | Recovery

My life transformed in many ways because of Hippocrates. I got my life back. I got healthy. I lost close to 50 pounds in a month.

I’m now 270 pounds. I’m down 70 pounds and I owe it all to Hippocrates. I have another 50 pounds to go.

Everyone wants to know how I lost the weight. And it’s very simple. I went to Hippocrates and I acquired a vegan lifestyle, which I have struggled with some at home.

It can be difficult for beginners, but I tell people, give it a week and something good is going to happen. In Hippocrates’ controlled environment, the (food) selection is beyond your wildest imagination. They have every kind of vegetation on that salad bar!

But, if there’s something that you’re struggling with eating—if you want it chopped, if you want it steamed or if you want your vegetables done a certain way—they will do it for you. The kitchen staff is amazing.

I’ve had only positive experiences at Hippocrates. It has been a blessing in my life.

The beautiful thing about Hippocrates is that I can always go back, and I do!

I went back in September 2019 for a week, but I recommend the three-week Life Transformation Program if you really want to make a change. And I plan to be there in May and maybe before then.

If you want to get healthy and you want to change your life and have tried everything else, just try Hippocrates. If you’re a person on blood pressure medicine, you’re (possibly) coming off blood pressure medicine. If

you’re like I was, taking two blood pressure medications for eight years, in just three weeks you may have to come off the medicine because your blood pressure is low.

My doctors are thrilled. They recommend Hippocrates to their patients, but some doctors don’t because they push prescription drugs, and prescription drugs are a billion-dollar industry.

Director, Brian Clement has the answer for success if you want to be healthy, happy and well.

I really have had a great rapport with the staff and guests. Amazing things happen at Hippocrates. It’s not just about getting healthy, but if you’re looking for a whole new life and to meet friends from around the world to take the time to sit and talk to, Hippocrates is that place. It’s all about health and happiness.

Brian astonishes me every time he speaks.

He’s an amazing speaker. He speaks from the heart and he keeps it real. I just relate to him and I don’t know if it’s a New York thing, but he’s an amazing guy.

I love the whole system. I love the pools, the weight room, the sauna, the mineral pool, just everything. I tell people about Hippocrates and say, “You got to go.”

I have bought my kids juicers. My 19-yearold daughter is into the program and she is juicing every day, and I’m still working on myself. As far as my family, Hippocrates gave me my life back and my kids got their father back.

I just want to say, “Thank you” to Brian, Anna Maria and the staff. Hippocrates is amazing!

I

went to Hippocrates for the first time in October 2018 after a health scare. Basically, I was diagnosed with testicular cancer in 2013 and, luckily, we caught it quickly and I didn’t need chemo or radiation, just surgery. I was cancer-free for five years. At my final five-year checkup, from a CT scan, my doctor noticed that it looked like there was a lymph node that was growing in my abdomen. This caused him to believe the cancer had come back, and he said I would probably need surgery to remove all of the lymph nodes from my abdomen. The thing about that is there’s quite an extreme recovery process, and I would have to get continual removal of lymphs with a needle in my belly because there would no longer be a system there to take care of that.

I’m a positive guy, that’s why my nickname is “Happy Jack,” so I tried to keep a positive mindset about the whole thing.

When I had an appointment with my colon hydrotherapist, she suggested I consider Hippocrates Health Institute in Florida before I schedule the surgery. I looked into it and gave them a call, and within an hour I had booked a three-week informa-

We went and the three-week experience was amazing, living the healthy lifestyle, eating healthy, doing wheatgrass and just learning an incredible amount of knowledge. While I was down there, I managed to get my follow-up test results from my doctor back in Toronto, Ontario. It turns out my doctor’s interpretation was that my lymph node had grown from 1.4 centimeters to 1.9 cm, which is a huge number and enough to require action. When I got the official results from the

radiologist though, it turned out the node had grown only from 0.9 cm to 1.1 cm, which is a normal fluctuation.

I brought it to my doctor’s attention, and he said there would be no need for surgery.

So, while my doctor had made an innocent mistake, the blessing was that I was able to discover Hippocrates. I’ve become great friends with director Brian and I actually joined their teaching faculty, which is why I’ve been back three more times now. I go back for the health educator programs, so it has really grown into this beautiful opportunity. My wife and I are always excited to go back every

year just to do a cleanse and a reset. Being in Canada, where the snow is flying, it’s nice to go down to Florida.

There’s certainty in knowing that my health is where it is, and just having way more energy. The majority of North Americans think they’re eating healthy because we’ve been misinformed by society and by marketing, and there’s so much information when you go down to Hippocrates that wouldn’t be available elsewhere. The other thing is that everybody can use a good cleanse, and when you go there you just eat so clean and you do all the wheatgrass and everything and you can just reset and detox. The reality is that most everybody has something going on, whether it’s inflammation, depression, anxiety, they’re overweight or fatigued, and all of this stuff is lifestyle- and nutrition-related.

Hippocrates is just the place to get educated and get cleansed and it feels amazing.

It’s a lifestyle transformation.

I saw people walk in there and they were not the same person at the end of three weeks.

People with terminal diseases, I just saw their health and vitality go through the roof.

Hippocrates truly gives you a life transformation.

COMMITMENT to health

Hippocrates helps ease the pain of systemic scleroderma. | B Y YO L A N D A R A M O S |

I

was going to the doctors back and forth, seeing specialists, and I was given medications. I was having issues with swelling in my hands and feet and throughout the body, and the tips of my fingers were getting kind of bluish. I was having a hard time making a fist. I was having issues with my throat, and I started having issues with my stomach. I was having a hard time actually getting up from the bed because I had muscle pain. I got to the point where my husband and my daughter were helping me off the bed.

At first, the doctors said it was fibromyalgia or arthritis. They kept switching and then they sent me to a specialist, and the specialist did more testing, more bloodwork, and the conclusion between my primary doctor and the specialist was systemic scleroderma.

I had been having these problems for quite a few years, and then for five or six months (in 2019), it just got worse. Prior to this, I went twice before to Hippocrates when I was younger, but I didn’t apply myself. It took me getting sick to make me go back a third time and apply the Hippocrates lifestyle.

When I went in August, it was an amazing experience. They made me feel very welcome. At the time, I had a lot of stress, too. You wake up early in the morning and you go to classes, you go to the health care team. You feel at peace. It’s an awesome place to be; stress-free.

The diet was really hard for me because my family eats everything—pasta, meat, everything. That’s why I stayed eight weeks. At the beginning, I came home for one weekend, everybody was cooking horrible food. It’s hard going from eating regular food to making

that change, but I stuck to it and I kept on with the diet. I went back to Hippocrates and haven’t stopped, and I don’t regret it because it’s helped me so much. I lost weight. I went in 180 and when I came out, I weighed 150, so it helped me so much mentally and physically. It’s awesome. The wheatgrass juice is amazing for your body. I had no knowledge of it. I comsumed this nutritious liquid and it helped tremendously.

I would tell anyone that has issues or problems to go to Hippocrates. I saw people there that were enduring cancer. They went to treatments, and they changed. I saw the effect it had on the people. It was amazing.

My grandmother went in there and she had cirrhosis of the liver, and it helped her tremendously. The medical doctors gave her only five years to live, and she’s still alive. This was 10 years ago. My mother, too, was at the Institute with me. She went because she had issues like prediabetes, she was in there for two weeks and received enormous help.

You have to go in order to experience how it works. You have to apply yourself and do everything they tell you. I’m still committed to it. I won’t go back to eating meat and other stuff. I love how I feel now. I’m able to get up by myself. I’m able to do things on my own, and that was the No. 1 thing I wasn’t able to do. I do have some swelling, but I’m able to close my fist. It’s not as bad as it was before. The muscle pain is gone. I’m more positive. I think, in a a way I wasn’t able to do before, it’s helped me tremendously. My mentality changed completely, I feel much more positive. I have a granddaughter and I’m able to do things with her that before I wasn’t able to.

Everyone in my home, plus my mother and grandmother, was worried about what I was going through and everybody wanted to help. They’ve seen a big difference, so they’re happy now. I would recommend Hippocrates to anyone. It will change your life if you make the commitment.

fter air, water is the most essential element for maintaining human life on Earth. It is widely accepted as an unlimited resource. The sad truth is that, because of environmental abuse, industrial greed and governmental neglect, our most important resource has become a carrier of toxic chemicals and disease-causing pollutants.

Put simply, water today has become a repository for industrial and agricultural waste.

Industries illegally dump dangerous chemicals into the ground and waterways which then seep into our water supply. Agricultural run-off is flushing pesticides and herbicides such as glyphosate into the environment that is contaminating our food and water.

New emerging contaminants have made their way into our water supplies. These include flame retardant chemicals and industrial agents such as 1,4 Dioxane that are carcinogenic at very low levels. Dumping by hospitals and consumers flushing tons of drugs down the toilet has contributed to over 41 different pharmaceuticals being detected in U.S. drinking water supplies. The Associated Press did an investigative report and found that many nonprescription drugs were also detected trace amounts of pharmaceuticals heart medication, pain relievers such as Acetaminophen and Ibuprofen and anticonvulsants have been detected the drinking water of 41 million people across the United States.

More than 50 million Americans are drinking water with unsafe levels of various toxic contaminants. Research conducted by the

Environmental Working Group (EWG) found in nearly 50,000 American public water systems contaminated with hundreds of harmful chemicals including arsenic, fluoride, radioactivity and more. Of the approximately 500 contaminants tested, the EWG labs detected 267 toxic contaminants in U.S. drinking water supplies.

The sustainability of clean, safe water is in jeopardy.

The question: If the source water that I drink and bath in is tested by my water supplier and meets government standards, why is it not healthy? The answers are the key to understanding the massive misunderstanding of whytap water is contributing to many health disorders.

People are being misled to believe that drinking water is safe because it meets government standards, the notion that the EPA’s allowable concentration levels of toxic contaminants in your drinking water is ‘safe’ is a myth. If a certain chemical or heavy metal, such as arsenic, is present in trace amounts, at first the amounts are insignificant to cause damage.

However, over time they accumulate until they reach toxic levels and then manifest as a health disorder or interact with medications that you are currently taking causing adverse reactions.

Dr. Roy M. Speiser, Scientist, Consumer Advocate and Water Quality Expert has 30+ years’ experience in water and air filtration solutions to protect your indoor environment.

Pharmaceuticals and hormone disruptors in water are implicated in contributing to the rise of obesity and thyroid disorders. There is a growing concern amongst Federal Environmental officials, watch-dog environmental groups and scientific community that long term exposure will clearly pose a health risk to the population. Pregnant women, elderly and the very ill are more susceptible.

Chronic low-level exposure to certain drugs like chemotherapy, hormones, antidepressants and antibiotics will clearly pose a health risk.

Consider the quality of the water you drink and the air you breathe….Never cut corners when it comes to your health with inadequate, non-specific filters. A healthy detox is simply not feasible without effective environmental filtration, CWR Environmental can help!

BECOME YOU Skin Issues:

Acne – Comedone: (open- blackhead, closedwhite heads) Shows up during adolescence as sebum production is increased and could lead to micro bacteria overgrowth which can then develop to nodulesand cysts, which have a high tendency for scarring.

BY ANNA MARIA CLEMENT

T

he Spa and Beauty industry rakes in 10’s of billions of dollars yearly. The United States is dotted with 22,000 spas and almost all of these establishments distribute dangerous, even poisonous, skincare products.

Dr. Epstein’s (leading toxicologists) book “Health and Beauty” reveals the sinister side of how they produce and distribute products with ingredients that you would not wish anyone to use.

Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans all experimented with skin applications to get perfect complexions using salt, pumice and of course, aromatherapy oils (frankincense, myrrh, etc.). Millennia later, skin peeling, cryosurgery, electro surgery, AccutaneRetin A, dermabrasion, PPR and all kinds of laser technology.

The skin is the body’s largest organ, divided into three layers. The outer layer is the epidermis, the middle layer is the dermis and subcutaneous fat forms the inner layer.

Eczema (to boil over) Itchy, dry, scaly skin rash.

The epidermis forms new keratinocytes (squamous cells) and replaces old ones that are shed from the skin’s surface, it also contains melanocytes – cells that produce melanin, skin pigment.

Blood vessels, nerves, hair follicles, oil glands and sweat glands are located in the dermis. The dermis is held together by the proteins, collagen and elastic fibers made by fibroblasts (skin cells) that give the skin its strength and resilience. Specialized skin substances (heparin sulfate and hyaluronic acid) that help keep the skin hydrated are important for maintenance. The Dermis also has pain and touch receptors, blood vessels, lymph vessels, hair follicles and sweat glands.

The deepest layer, also known as the hypodermis, is made up of subcutaneous tissue, that consists of collagen and fat cells.

Its main function is conserving body heat and protecting other organs from injury.

Become Seventy percent of our body’s blood plasma and body fluids are nearly identical to seawater. Our trillions of cells get nourished by our body fluids, all the more reason to keep it healthy. Toxicologists awakened the world to the plethora of poisons placed in cosmetics no matter how much they cost. Almost all of the so-called natural varieties still contain unhealthy chemistry. The most common of these noxious chemicals are paraben sulfates, sulfides, artificial additives, etc.

For this reason, Hippocrates created Become as the purest and most effective line of skin and body care on earth. Knowing that our largest organ is happiest when bathed in nutrient rich seawater, we chose this as the base for each and every one of these premium products.

Seaweed or algae gets its nutrients from the ocean; minerals, trace minerals, iodine, manganese, zinc copper, etc., which are harmonious with our systems. This helps to restore balance in your skin trans dermally, as it is absorbed easily.

Using food-based botanical marine sources is congruent with our mission to provide the purest, highest quality, effective nourishment and protection for the body and soul.

Essentially employing sea plants with organic essential oil ingredients, creates paramount anti-inflammatory action for face and body. Free of parabens, sulfates, sulfides, artificial additives, etc., each Become offering is so pure it is edible and remarkably effective as health building, anti-aging, skin and body care.

Hives (urticarial) Formed by blood plasma leaking out of small blood vessels in the skin, which is caused by the release of histamine.

Histamine is released by mast cells that lie along the blood vessels in the skin, often caused by allergic reactions, foods, medications, insect bites, infections, even parasitic, fungus infection.

Psoriasis Round or oval red patches, with overlying silver-gray scale, on elbows, knees and scalp.

There is a manifestation of an immune response, mediated in part by T-cells. Studies are showing a link to depression, diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

Note: Regular, moderate amounts of exposure to sunlight helps clear psoriasis, negative emotions and stress.

Rosacea – 4 kinds 1. Erythematotelangiectatic – Facial redness with numerous telangiectasias (threadlike red lines or patterns on the skin) 2. Papulopustular – The classic presentation of rosacea, permanent dilution of superficial capillaries – Facial redness with papules (skin legions) or pustules (blisters) 3. Rhinophyma – Enlargement of nose 4. Ocular – Rosacea in the eye Skin Cancers Melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma. The incidence of skin cancers has risen 2000% since 1930.

20 – 30% of melanomas arise in pre-existing moles characterized by an asymmetrical shape, irregular borders, variations in color and a diameter (often over 6 mm or the size of a pencil eraser.) and it is changing is size, shape or texture.

For men, it is most frequently located on their trunk and for women on their legs, but could appear anywhere.

Psychological stress can take a toll on the body including the skin. Stress often results in a flare up of any dermal disorder.

The Florida Keys Ban Sunscreen Most people are unaware of the noxious effect from even so-called natural sun protectors. There is overwhelming evidence that coral reefs are smothered and dying due to the layers of toxic waste that these skin “protective� creams dispense. Unfortunately, such concoctions can amplify cancer causing rays rather than reduce them, as well as bake cancer causing chemicals into your skin.

One of the many reasons that Hippocrates Health Institute created the Become Line of plant based, organic cosmetics and skin care is due to such alarming facts. Needless to say, women and men that use such

I came to HHI to lose weight. I lost 6 pounds my first week and nothing my second week! I was so high about my progress and now I’m bummed and discouraged.

What am I doing wrong?

A

It is very possible that you’re doing nothing wrong! I know you had an expectation after week one, but here you are, two weeks in, and it is what it is. Actually, this pattern is not uncommon. I’m not sure why (that’s for others to explain), but let me reassure you that you’re on track. It’s just not going how you thought or how you hoped. So, talk to your fitness experts, get some perspective and get back into a positive mindset. Let the program do its magic. It’s not rocket science: if you burn more than you take in, you will lose weight, barring any medical issues.

If I wanted to get all psychobabble on you, I might ask you or explore with you those things that you are holding on to. It’s true: eating very clean and green catapults us into new territory, a new sense of self, a new feeling for our bodies, and that often also brings up resistance to change, which can inhibit or slow down the detox and/or weight-loss process. To change our body type can bring us into a new sense of sexuality, for instance, which can be uncomfortable or challenging at first, even if we consciously

| HIPPOCRATESINSTITUTE.ORG | Recovery

wanted it. To engage our muscles in new exercise can challenge our sense of passivity and weakness, either by recognizing how we’ve ignored our own well-being or how subconsciously we’ve identified with being a victim. To change what we eat, in itself, can bring up all sorts of challenges in recognizing how we’ve used food as a comfort or even a numbing tool.

These are some of the reasons we include psychological and emotional support as important pillars of the HHI program: because we are not logical, but rather, psychological beings. One last wrap-up comment on this topic: it’s not uncommon for the HHI colon therapists to tell us that they see better results in the guests who have just come from deep psychotherapy sessions! The mind/body connection is real, so attend to your inner work every step of the way!

I have an addictive personality and a long history of addictive behavior. I’m going into the HHI program afraid I’m going to mess up. I want to get well but I don’t have much confidence or faith in myself.

A

I can see how you might be wary of yourself and about the success of your new health venture. I’m going to lay it out straight: you have some work to do. Addictions serve

one major purpose, which is to help a person avoid and not feel pain. If the substance also provides pleasure, then bingo, you’ve got a perfect addictive storm! Food can definitely be in that category. Everything emotional you’ve supressed will be harder to keep down and is likely to come up into your awareness. Because there’s no dulling feelings with raw living foods, the intensity of detox probably will be greater for you here at HHI. This can show up in the form of intense dreams at night or feelings of malaise or out-and-out projection into your current reality, which means “issues” will arise.

We who’ve worked at HHI for a while have come to recognize when a guest’s issues are up, and we know you can work through it.

But first, you must get to it.

The people who get to it, get through it. It’s a perfect time to introspect and get help with it. Again, it’s why we provide psychological and emotional support services, because we know detox doesn’t happen in an impersonal vacuum, but rather, in the context of our humanity. It’s OK to get real as you get well. We’ll help you face your demons and unlock your joy. That’s what it’s all about. It’s not a sin or a crime to protect yourself from pain, but it is a pity to stay locked in defense mode and unconsciousness, spinning with the wheel of addiction.

Get real and get off the wheel!

Your body will follow your lead, and super-nutrition will streamline the way!

M

I was diagnosed with breast cancer in May 2019, I have also been going through a breakup in my relationship of seven years since January. I feel very overwhelmed by both. How can I deal with my loss of relationship and now the loss of my health?

A

It is normal to feel very overwhelmed by the loss of your significant relationship and your health. The common theme in both of these experiences is the grief and loss associated with the significant changes in your life. Both losses may make you feel insecure: “I cannot be sure I am going to be totally healthy again” or “I cannot depend on someone who will care for me unconditionally” are the usual thoughts beneath the feelings of insecurity. It may be helpful for you to become aware of the different stages of grieving, and then to slowly reach the stage of “acceptance” so you can take charge of your life and move on.

Even though there are many other theories about dealing with grief, the following five stages of grief seem appropriate. These five stages come from the original work of Dr. Elizabeth Kubler-Ross, who worked with terminally ill patients and wrote her book, “On Death and Dying,” to help the patients and the survivors.

The first stage is “Denial,” a coping mechanism. Maybe you have gone through this already. “No, I am not going to be alone again. No, I cannot get cancer, because I have been very careful about my diet and exercise.” These are some of the thoughts

I

N

D

of denial which may help you numb the intensity of what is happening and help you to gradually move on. But, as you move on, you might experience that some of the hidden emotions are coming out more freely.

The second stage is “Anger,” an emotion that has a masking effect: you may be angry at your ex for deceiving you, or at the doctor who a year ago told you that you were in good health. Anger may come out in expressions such as, “I hate him/her. He/ she is going to regret his/her decision,” or “I am going to sue the doctor who had no clue about what I was complaining about.”

The third stage is “Bargaining,” which could be a way to regain the loss of control one feels in the grief and loss. “If I had spent more time with him/her, this would not have happened,” or “If I had gone to such and such a doctor, I would have been much better informed.” These are some of the thoughts associated with this stage. A religious person may make deals with God or another higher power at this stage to reverse the events.

The fourth stage is “Depression,” which is generally a quiet stage. In the early stages of the loss, you could be hiding your emotions, but in this stage, you may embrace the reality of what is happening and start moving on. Many thoughts associated with this stage can be negative: “Why should I ever be in a relationship?

What is the big deal if I die of

cancer?” Some people may feel lost at this stage. This is when they can use the help of a therapist. The realization that what is past is past may help you overcome the depression itself. I find EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) to be particularly useful in dealing with this stage.

The last stage is “Acceptance,” which can be, yet not necessarily, a happy stage.

However, you may be able to accept the reality of what happened and start feeling that there is more chance to feel better than worse. “Ultimately, I am happy I am not in that torturing relationship anymore” or “This was an opportunity for me to take good care of my health” are some of the thoughts associated with this stage. This is the stage where one accepts the reality of change and resolves to move on.

By mentioning the five stages, it does not mean you or anyone else should necessarily go through all these stages in order to accept change as a preparation to move on. Some people may move on faster with familial or social support. However, it is good to be aware of the stages of grief that most people go through in order to reach the stage of acceptance of the changes in your life. As your emotions affect your healing process, it is good to have some resources to deal with challenges in life. If you continue to feel overwhelmed by your challenges, it is good to also get some professional help so you can rebuild your physical and emotional health with more ease and comfort.

Stress Immersion Program

Dr. Edwin Riley, Ph.D. (left) and Rev. Viktoras Kulvinskas, M.S. (right)

Dr. Edwin Riley, Ph.D., a pioneer in the field of stress reduction and author of Stress RX, joins forces with Rev. Viktoras Kulvinskas, M.S., co-founder of Hippocrates Health Institute and author of Survival in the 21st Century, to present an immersion program in all aspects of coping with

stressors in the high-tech, fast-paced world in which we live.

Recognized as the root cause of most disease and illness, stress needs to be managed, since it cannot be eliminated. This is the only way to find balance in this age of technology and self-imposed

criticisms such as low self-esteem and inferior self-worth.

This one-of-a-kind program provides practical tools and techniques to achieve mental, emotional, physical and spiritual balance. Participants will learn how to take charge, overcome stress and lead healthier, happier lives.

• How the mind works in relationship to stress

• Superfoods and dietary factors to reduce stress

• Mind/Body connection: Learning the guided body scan

• How to release tension and fatigue

• Healing Qigong to remove blocks, obstructions, congestion and pain

• The importance of living in the eternal now, mindfulness, forgiveness, non-judgment and self-love

• Overcoming stress related symptoms with strong coping techniques, self-care skills and awareness

• Intensive meditation training; both formal and informal practices 58

• Chemistry of stress

• Discovering the fundamental basis for all addictions and the simple cure to be free • How the five bodies of the individual respond to stress and how to convert it into a positive response

facilitate workshops both in the United States and Internationally. I call them “Stress Reduction Vacations” for a very special semantic purpose. First, everyone wants to reduce their stress. Second, I know of no one who doesn’t relish a vacation. Ergo, the name choice.

Stress reduction is a good thing and does not need to be an arduous or unpleasant process. Quite to the contrary, in fact, with some very basic lifestyle adjustments change begins immediately.

As the transcendental writer Emerson wrote: “Knowledge is an antidote to fear.”

Fear, imagined or real, creates anxiety. This is stress.

One of the questions I am most frequently asked, whether in lectures, stress immersion programs, or private consultations is “what can I do NOW to reduce my stress?”

Not tomorrow, next week, next month or next year…NOW. My response: “Take your MEDS.” This is NOT a pharmaceutical prescription. MEDS is an acronym for “meditation, exercise, diet, sleep.”

Meditation connects us with our true nature which is love, compassion and wisdom. The mind, once in a calm state, experiences peace. Both formal and informal mindfulness practices can be a sleep substitute to the effect that entering into deep meditation takes you into REM rest, and that is essential for health and reducing stress.

Exercise is necessary to reverse the aging process, oxygenate cells, restore vitality to our daily lives, boost immune function and increase self-esteem and self-worth.

Next program starts Feb.9

Personally, I recommend Qigong, tai chi, brisk walking and dancing. Now highly recognized in clinical studies as a “healthcare system”; Qigong removes blocks, obstructions, congestion and pain from the energetic, physical, emotional, and mental body. Qigong can also be efficacious for muscle resistance training.

Diet is essential for body and brain. Eating organic is optimum. Taking systemic and digestive enzymes and probiotics daily are ESSENTIAL! Part of that healthy plantbased diet includes staying sufficiently hydrated, which means drinking at least one half an ounce of distilled water daily per pound of your body weight. For example, if your weight is 150 pounds, drink 75 ounces daily.

Sleep is required so the body can process toxins and rejuvenate the body, mind and spirit.

To varying degrees, this situation is rampant, all over around the world. The days when patients were told that “stress is just in your mind so get over it” are long gone. Most medical authorities now concede that chronic stress is part of the universal human condition and the root cause of most disease and illness. How we respond to “stressors” determines our outcome. Certainly reducing stressors and receiving emotional support and love go a long way to relieving the negative effects of stress, but MEDS are the essential building blocks for stress reduction and mandatory towards the path for optimal health.

Now you have a prescription to overcome stress and every journey towards peace begins with the first step.

REMAIN VIGILANT It’s up to you to decide your food choices.

A

s the Washington political sparring accelerated over impeachment at the end of last year, food policymaking and regulations simply became “stuck” and dribbled to a halt. During this intense vetting period where guidance simply became sidelined, the most influential food policy persons came down to us. It is our own “boots on the ground” that clearly pilot our food choices through any food labeling changes, challenges or cloudiness.

As learned through the Hippocrates Health Institute and the POP Campaign, during these pushes and pauses, the only ones who truly can design a better lifestyle for our families are us. The best actors are ourselves in selecting the quality food we seek on every aisle at the grocery store. It is here where we stand up for our right to health, refusing to outlive our own expiration dates of commitment and to succumb to fuzzy labeling, in spite of regular and “progressive” grocers and growers slipping on transparency at the shelves.

Mainstream stores, as well as some health food grocers, manufacturers and suppliers challenge our pure “choice” compasses and modify ingredients to cloud up technical labeling and to deviate off the pure path of clarity. This gradual hijacking of the integrity of our food challenges our internal health convictions.

Once strong commitments to health give way to the tilt of profit margins. “Real life” demands that we remain vigilant.

For 2020, may you demand and carve out a clear path of renewed commitment for choices and reshape your food decisions in ways that optimize your health legacy for yourselves and your families.
