Memorable Quotes

“My job as a practitioner is to figure out what is driving the inflammation in this person's body. So if you have any amount of inflammation in the body, maybe you don't know if you have parasites or not, but you have acne, have endometriosis or adenomyosis or PCOS or ADHD. I just have one of my couples, he has... ADD and it's like, okay, let's just put them on Adderall. It's like, how about we figure out why his brain is inflamed?"

“I think it's oversimplified to say, you have heavy metals to start doing some chlorella and some good binders and support some drainage and you're good because you're going to probably have some infections that pop up because this metal was causing this infection and now the body has the ability to actually purge and get rid of it which means it has to express itself and i have this fungal rush all of sudden yeah because the body finally has the strength to get rid of it instead of suppressing it all the time”

“How long is it going to take to detox? And this is a question that I don't think anybody really has an answer to because once you go down this rabbit hole, it's like a Pandoras box. You don't know how much is going to come out. You just don't know. You don't know if this heavy toxic load has been in your system for so long and your poor body is just waiting to get it out.”
