My Garden--almost ready


Here are some of my babies--not such babies anymore! They are almost ready to eat. I keep thinking it is getting too hot for them, but each time I get ready to harvest them we have another cold snap. This week is the week, though. It's almost sad to think of eating them! Then again, I feel that they are a gift from the Earth and Mother Nature. What a blessing!

My Garden--first glimpse


These are my babies--lettuce, beets and chard. They are a part of my first garden in New Mexico. We always had a garden growing up in hot, humid East Texas, where gardening is pretty easy compared to the high, dry desert.

Conditions Associated With Food Sensitivity

Besides Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Fibromyalgia and Migraine, which are most definitely associated with food hypersensitivity, there are other conditions that may be associated with food hypersensitivity as well. The more conditions a person has, the more likely food sensitivity is involved. The LEAP Diet is shown to be effective when food sensitivity is the underlying cause (or one of) of disease. The diet is developed for each individual, based on his or her MRT results. MRT is a blood test which shows what foods and food chemicals a person is reacting to (a various levels and through non-IgE immune regulated pathways). It is clinically proven to be an accurate and reliable method of identifying food hypersensitivities. No guess work needed.

Conditions That May Be Associated with Food Sensitivity:
  • Celiac Disease
  • Ulcerative Colitis
  • Crohn's Disease
  • GERD
  • Asthma
  • Migraines
  • Interstitial Cystitis
  • Tinnitis
  • Rhinitis/Sinusitis
  • Secretory Otitis Media (ear infections)
  • ADHD
  • Urticaria (hives)
  • Angio-edema
  • Rheumatologic Disorders (ie., arthritis, lupus)
  • Atopy
I can guide patients through the LEAP Diet and arrange for MRT both LOCALLY and at a DISTANCE. All one needs is good internet and phone access. Skype is great, but not totally necessary. The initial consultation to determine LEAP candidacy is based on a sliding scale and very affordable, so please inquire. If nothing else has worked, OR if things are just starting to get bad and you don't want to go down that road, contact me today. LEAP WORKS, where the current standard of care, in most cases, does not. LEAP is the use of Food as Medicine at its best!

Blessings and Good Health,
