Wrinkles, Acne - We have answers and natural treatments

Get your bio groove back this holiday season before those classic holiday pictures. 

When you're packing up your little ones to go to Grandmother's house don't forget these items in the overnight bag.  Everyone goes off rhythm during the holidays which lowers the immune system.  Little ones get colds easily when you're traveling by plane, train and car and tummy aches from too many sweets.  These formulas are alcohol-free and perfect for children.  You'll be the wonderful Mary Poppins with a spoonful of these medicines.  Respiguard Glycerite Compound - supports healthy respiratory tract and immune system function.  Tummy Glycerite Compound - promotes temporary relief from digestive system irritation while soothing nervous system function.  Both are in stock in our virtual pharmacy.

Remove wrinkles without surgery?

Natural Safe Treatments for Wrinkles and Acne 

Speaking of family pictures - another patient asked me what to take to remove wrinkles without surgery.  The answer is simple.  RegeneMax  This nourishes your body's beauty proteins. This is a patented choline-stabilized orthosilicic acid that showed great results with all skin types in European double blind studies.  Remember European trial standards are the most stringent and difficult to pass.  Two caps a day for life.  If you don't like capsules, this product comes in liquid form.  Just 5 drops per day provides all you need for advanced collagen regeneration. 

Order Xymogen

In January, I will studying advanced ozone treatments for cosmetic use instead of Botox injections. I have never supported the use of botulism injections. I can't wait to offer a safe and natural alternative to dangerous Botox injections that create an unnatural mask-like appearance. 

Can anything be done about acne?

A woman recently asked me what her teenage daughter could do about her acne.  For cystic and regular acne in tweens and teens, I recommend DFH's Acnutrol.  It comes in oral caps and a topical gel to apply directly on the lesions . Two caps a day and cystic acne is significantly reduced in less than two weeks.  Acne is a reflection of altered gut flora from a poor diet.  The outside of your skin is just a mirror of inflammatory events in the gastrointestinal tract.  I encourage our tweens and teens to reduce their intake of processed foods, trans-fats, uncultured dairy products like cheese and milk, fried foods, soda, sugar, corn and gluten.  I design daily menus using fruits and vegetables that they like.  Fruits can be added to healthy protein smoothies and vegetables can be cooked at low temps in the toaster oven to make kale, carrot, zucchini or fennel chips that are delicious with a sprinkle of sea salt.  Your favorite fruits and vegetables can always be juiced for a power boost after school and before sports activities.  If you have questions, call us and we'll help create individualized strategies that address your teen's specific health concerns.

How to get a better rest to combat the Holiday stress

Winter Solstice  We are coming to the end of the year.  It is a busy time with holiday preparations, family meltdowns, over indulgences and usually less sleep.  It's normal for many animals to hibernate at this time of year.  Most people are in high gear and rarely get enough sleep let alone good quality sleep. If you want sugar plums dancing in your head while you slumber on a big feather bed. 

Try Insomnitol from Designs for Health   This formula of gentle botanicals, nutrients and neurotransmitters gets you to sleep and keeps you asleep.  This is not habit-forming. Visit our virtual pharmacy and click DFH. No passcode necessary. Take two caps 30 - 60 minutes before bedtime.  Wake up refreshed for a new day. 

Don't forget to schedule your holiday colonics.  Our schedule is filling up.  You can still get a big discount if you buy a series.  Whether you start your transformation now or in the new year - WE ARE YOUR DETOX EXPERTS.
