Truly Healthy Bones, More Than Just Calcium and Vitamin D
Monday, October 9, 2017 from 7:00 PM to 8:15 PM 
(held in Quincy Center, MA at a private location shared with you when you register)

Did you hear the latest about vitamin D, calcium supplements and bone health? Some very large observational studies show that using most calcium and vitamin D supplements does not improve the bone health of menopausal women!

If you're like most Americans, you’ve probably been told by your doctor, friends, nutritionist, and the media that if you want to prevent osteoporosis and fractures, just drink lots of milk and take more calcium supplements. Yet most dairy (and soymilk) products, and nearly ALL calcium supplements can actually contribute to worsening your bone health and increasing fractures.

That’s right! Several reliable long-term studies have shown that taking most calcium supplements, and/or drinking two or more glasses of milk daily, can actually aggravate and worsen osteoporosis, fractures and joint pain.

So, what can you do if you want to experience healthy bones throughout life and into your elder years?
In reality, everyone can enjoy healthy, strong bones that last a lifetime. Yet many of us don’t, for a variety of reasons, including digestive problems, endocrine imbalances, and a diet lacking in the right foods.

​Even if you have been diagnosed with osteoporosis or osteopenia, you can turn it around and restore good bone health by making the right choices, starting now.


Please join us for this fascinating talk about how the information we hear from the media and many health experts is not working and why. Hear how to use foods, herbs and supplements to restore weakened bones and prevent thinning, fragile bones in the future.

Get real answers and dispel the many misleading myths about good bone and joint health. Learn to choose and prepare simple, delicious, nourishing foods that will re-mineralize your bones and teeth. Find out which supplements really do work for improving bone strength and flexibility, beginning today

Children and adults alike can find our fast paced, multitasking society difficult to navigate. Sometimes it feels like the more we try, the further behind we find ourselves. Whether dealing with ADD, ADHD, autism, Alzheimer's, anxiety, bipolar, or the myriad of other brain health concerns (diagnosed or otherwise), there are holistic approaches to finding balance and relief from symptoms, over-sensitivities and discomforts. While medications may help some, others find themselves feeling dulled and uncreative, often lost and low functioning or irritated with simple things.

The good news is that there are many simple changes we can make to deliver powerful results! A select group of nourishing foods and herbal remedies can support your clear mind to help restore your ability to focus, maintain attention, retain information for work, school, and creative endeavors, and complete tasks. At any stage of life, from infancy through our elder years, nutritional foods and healthy living practices help prevent anxiety, irritability, frustration and disease. Join us to learn about some of your best options for coping with our world of high-speed technology, the big push in schools, and highly competitive workplaces.​

Natural Approaches to Autism, ADHD, and Other Neurological Conditions
for Children and Adults
Thursday, September 14, 2017 from 7:00 to 8:30 PM 
(held in Quincy Center, MA at a private location shared with you when you register)

Every parent wants more for their child, yet some parents of children with autism, ADHD, and other brain conditions have become resigned to their child’s 'fate,' not realizing that healing is possible. What they may not know is that there is great hope attainable from some simple steps that can be implemented.

Certainly every child (and adult) is unique, with his or her very own set of challenges, abilities, afflictions, sensitivities, symptoms and coping strategies. Unique, too, is an individual’s optimal plan for their healing; there is not a single plan that seems to work for everyone and with every diagnosis. That said, there are certain foods, herbal remedies and lifestyle support strategies that seem to help each and every child and adult with ADHD, OCD, bi-polar, on the autism spectrum, or the various other brain-nerve conditions that I have had the pleasure to work with.

Virtually all children with brain and nerve conditions, diagnosed or not, can heal to some great extent, and with help, using an integrated approach including a wholesome diet and a nurturing lifestyle, I've seen what could only be described as miracles, in hundreds of children. As Montana Burr, a fourteen year old who is healing himself from autism, says on his website, "Just keep in mind that recovery is a marathon, not a sprint."

Please join us to see how you can create a healing plan for the ones in your life who may experience autism, ADHD, OCD, or the myriad of other brain and nerve conditions that so many children contend with in our hectic, toxin laden, modern day society.
