We often get asked by readers is S. boulardii is safe to consume for people with IBD and IBS and is it actually beneficial? My answer up till now has been: When I tested it on myself - over 25 years ago - my body didn't like it very much. And then I had a [...]

This is one of the BEST videos I've seen of a science-backed, yet down-to-earth, practical education on the digestive process. Barbara O'Neill is an Australian naturopath and nutritionist - who has 8 children! But even if you just watch the first few minutes - you'll get the best understanding of why/how digestion begins in the [...]
Sometimes people ask why certain products I've formulated have low levels of powdered calcium - way below the RDA (recommended daily amount - as set by the med/pharma industry). The short answer is that I want you to get your calcium in a better, safer form. The other issue is that calcium needs to be [...]
If you've been using the elemental diet shake I formulated - Absorb Plus - for any length of time, you'll know that I am always on the lookout for ways to improve the product.

Which diet is right for you? Here's a funny story: I was once asked to present at a gastroenterology seminar, and the organizer wanted to know if I could speak about effective diets for Inflammatory Bowel Disease.

QUESTION: I've made the homemade HemorrHeal Rectal Suppository Formula for Internal Hemorrhoids and I've also had Rubber-Band Ligation of Hemorrhoids performed by a proctologist (cca. 6 procedures in the last 6 months). As using the formula and the ligation procedures have taken place roughly during the same time, I can say that hemorrhoids haven't returned, [...]
Let me start by saying that I do eat meat. However, I buy all my meat and eggs from local farms I have visited, and I know what kind of life the animals live. The quarter of a cow I buy once a year is killed by hand (not a slaughterhouse). But even I did [...]
Although I have been blogging about the health hazards of WiFi/microwave radiation for over a decade, this is a fabulous 2-minute film trailer that really hits on the key issues: Watch it and share it with ALL your loved ones.

READER QUESTION: "I have had perfect digestion and good diet, and perfect bowel movements 98% of the time, until sudden constipation over the last month, which has caused problems including (I believe) a fistula or fissures that affect the vaginal wall. I just read a recent Yale University study that found the herpes virus can [...]
Well, I thought I was hosting a meditation circle with my horses and my friend Katie Hess and her crew from Lotus Wei (flower essence energetic medicine) who were visiting Vancouver on their Flower Lounge tour.

I've written a fair amount about why people struggling to heal need to avoid factory-farmed animal meat. And that it's FAR better to eat less meat, but buy pasture-raised, free-range meat and eggs. But WOW this infographic from Dr. Mercola really pulls all those reasons into one, very easy to grasp format: The mass production [...]
For those of you strong enough to do a bit of food-based detox, here's a simple recipe, courtesy of Amanda Goodwin. Although it's best for people with Crohn's, colitis or any kind of immune system challenge to avoid grains, I know that sometimes that's not always possible, or your body can't tolerate enough other foods [...]
2020 Update: I can hardly believe this… but after banging on about the inability to sterilize colonoscopes for the last decade; educating people on the risks and what you can do before and after to minimize the risks, I just found out there is now FINALLY a single-use, disposable, robotic colonoscope available and currently being used in Italy [...]

Here's an excerpt [...]
Okay, so back in 2012 (can't believe it's been that long!) I posted an experimental protocol for healing intestinal strictures and scar tissue, called Intestinal StrictureHeal (not to be confused with the Rectal version). I gave out the eBook for free so people could test the protocol and over 500 people downloaded that eBook. After [...]
One of my videos on YouTube shows people how to make their own suppositories. As you may know, we sell the kits to make your own suppositories for healing internal hemorrhoids, so I also made this video to give people an easy-to-follow tutorial.

The Pigs at Sumas Mountain Farms Well I'm feeling very much the pioneering, homesteader today as I finally got up the gumption to attempt rendering lard! Of course, I would only use fat from a fully pastured, naturally-fed and housed animal. Aside from the humane issues, fat is the storehouse of hormones and [...]
If you live in Canada, you may have thought - like I did - that having a "Do not vaccinate my child" letter on file at your school was enough to ensure your child wasn't vaccinated during routine school vaccinations. However, that is NOT the case. My daughter just brought home a Consent Form from [...]
The School Board's position on cell phone and wireless computer usage inside my kids' school is: Hey, we just follow what Health Canada says! And Health Canada says there is no possibility of danger from radio frequency microwave radiation. Huh. So here's what I think of that: Currently, Health Canada maintains that 1000 mw/cm2 is [...]
Let's go on a little audio-visual, interactive journey together... It's okay if this hurts a little, or maybe more than a little. Stay with your emotions, let your emotions (pain, anger, sadness, grief) move into flow. Let your feelings flow, let your breath flow, let your tears flow. STAY with me. Lean in. This will [...]
We recently received this feedback from a reader using the Vegan elemental diet shake kit to provide her body with some bowel rest and hopefully gain some weight. What I LOVE about her story, is she outlines the twisty path healing can take. And how when you're trying to heal multi-layered imbalances or dis-ease, you [...]
My message from my craniosacral session this week was about further integration of the left and right sides of my body. The left side of the body corresponds to the feminine. The right side is the masculine. In my body, this delineation is so pronounced that my fingernails on my right hand are just like [...]
What do you feel about the place of nature, trees, plants, herbs and flowers in your journey to wholeness? I have come to realize that joining with nature is crucial to the re-alignment and empowerment of my whole self, my essential self. And of course, there are many ways to access or embody this. I [...]
Oooh sometimes in my dairy-free, wheat-free - mostly sugar-free life - I allow myself a wee treat or two. This week I found two 'naughty' items at my local organic grocer that sparked my imagination - a Halloween Hot Chocolate Recipe! First, presto-ready coconut whipped cream in a can - at the push of a nozzle!: [...]
Here's a little story from Dr. Goldberg for you, to kick off this topic: "We had a 47-year-old female patient, who following the advice of her Holistic, Functional Gynecologist, had a complete hysterectomy, plus a bilateral mastectomy based only on having the BRCA II gene. This was followed by a year of Diflucan prescribed by [...]
A recent study by the National Toxicology Program exposed rats to RF radiation for 9 hours per day for a period of two years, beginning in utero, and compared them to a control group which was not exposed.

Back in June, I was woken up out of a dead sleep with RANCHO LA PUERTA sounding in my head and the words written out in my mind's eye. What the what? Write it down. So I wrote down: Rancho La Puerta. And immediately went back to sleep. In the morning I googled it and [...]

The FCC (another governmental body that is supposed to protect you) has just approved - with NO debate or scientific inquiry - the rollout of 5G technology which will blanket all planetary life with ultra-high microwave frequencies - 24Ghz and up - even in rural areas. The fact that these frequencies have never been tested [...]
Patel Thompson Family (minus eldest son!) There are many different factors that contribute to childhood chronic illness; ranging from environmental and nutritional factors, through to emotional and psychological factors. In my experience, if a child becomes ill and remains ill, it is rarely, if ever, just about the child. Obviously, the mother and [...]
The title of this post is based on an earlier article I wrote about Pelican Medicine and the timely addition of an astute observation by Dr. Paul Goldberg about pelicans: That once they decide on their target (what they want), they dive headfirst at breakneck speed into the swirling waters and pounding waves - they [...]

It seems that the residents of France have shifted their eating habits and decided that fish is a healthier option than beef or chicken. But is it? This fabulous film explores this question - especially in light of the fact that 40-50% of the fish sold in France is farmed fish. Believe it or not, [...]
