The functional medicine based adrenal protocol that I use was learned during my training with Dr Kalish, at the Kalish Institute. This particular adrenal protocol has been used for the past 25 years with more than 8000 people. However, true success with the program is completely dependent on the diligence of each person.
Following the protocol and making the recommended lifestyle changes, ulitimately, is your sole responsibility. If you take the lab test and do not follow the protocol, you will not see improvement. However, if you are committed to working the program, I am committed to assisting and empowering you to take back your health and experience life changing results.

An individualized program is created to correct the underlying cause of your symptoms. When this occurs, your symptoms disappear.

Viruses, germs, and bacteria are everywhere. They are in the food we eat, the air we breathe and the water we drink, but not all of them are bad or harmful.
Think of the immune system as your body’s security detail. The cells, tissues, and organs that comprise it help repel foreign invaders like harmful bacteria, parasites and other microbes that can cause infections. Disorders of the immune system range from everyday annoyances like mild seasonal allergies to serious illnesses like leukemia. Stress, lack of sleep and other common conditions can contribute to a weakened immune system, which can make you vulnerable to infections. continue reading »
