HOW TO USE THIS SITE

 

Our Vision

 

We are transforming the existing medical model in this country from one limited to pharmaceutical drugs, surgery and other invasive methods that merely cover up or treat only symptoms (with destructive results to our health, and the health of our planet) to one focused on treating and preventing not only the underlying causes of disease but to helping and teaching people.    

 

We will achieve this through HerbalConsults.com by providing easy to understand, thorough, and researched information on the best herbal, nutritional, medical, exercise, and lifestyle choices to improve and maintain health.

 

This information is guided by insight and contributions from health sources and medical experts who are focused on treating causes of disease and preventing illness.

 

Advertisers, investors, or any other party offering financial or other returns in exchange for the promotion of their ideas, or goods will not effect or change the information presented on this site. Where we recommend or offer products and services on this site, it is because we have researched them and truly believe they are the best; any profits generated through this site will only be used to maintain and expand Herbalconsults.com.

 

We will also expose the existing medical/pharmaceutical/insurance/governmental complex's disinformation and techniques that place your health and the health of the planet in grave danger. By doing this in an open forum, and by revealing their shortcomings, weaknesses and dishonorable motives (power, greed, corruption, inability to adapt and change) that form the basis of the current establishment's system, we hope to help you along your journey to optimal health.

 

 

WHY AND HOW ON THE INTERNET?

Some people ask me, “How can you offer something like an herbal consultation, on the web?” Well, that is a very good question, since an office visit usually entails the doctor actually seeing the patient in person. The answer, quite simply is “because it’s there!” Allow me to explain. We now have technology available to us that did not exist seven years ago. I am using literally every viable, available resource to bring about better access to healthcare and health information to everyone. This includes using computers and the Internet, along with the latest researched products and treatments; without forgetting the last 5000 years of recorded history and the wealth of healing knowledge it has brought us as a planet.

I am empowering you to take charge of your health care, and your family’s, for life. I am offering answers to questions such as: Do I need to take vitamins, and if so what kind and how much? When I go to my doctor about a health problem, what sorts of questions do I need to ask? What are my treatment options for a particular disease? How do I stay healthy as I age? How can soft tissue manipulation (a special type of massage) help my headaches? When I go to the health food store, how do I know which products are best for me? What does my diagnosis really mean? What kinds of doctors or health care providers will best be able to help me for a particular problem? Information is a powerful tool, and with that power comes responsibility -- you take responsibility for your well being. You are allowed and encouraged to take control of your health.

I utilizing the latest research available on diet and nutrition; for example, we know that organic produce provides more vitamins and minerals than conventional produce, and we know that food-derived vitamin C is much better than any of the mineral ascorbates. We recommend electric juicers because they are more efficient and extract more nutrition from the produce. We know that the quality of water we drink makes a difference in our health so we recommend the best water purifiers. Yet we stand to make no money from the sales of organic produce or electric juicers or water purifiers. We recommend them because technology has delivered them to us. Technology from man has given us the burden of depleted soils and polluted water that helps to rob us of our health. The least we can do is take advantage of technology that improves our health.

In the past, only Emperors, the Dalai Lama, or the wealthy, privileged aristocracy had access to the best doctors and the best health care. Now using the resources available today, the best healthcare can be accessed by anyone on the planet. What we offer on the site as much as it is based on an ancient philosophy of health and life, draws on the best of what we have learned since then and weaves it into a more effective whole. The Taoists greatest legacy was perhaps the fact that they embraced change so much that the basic tenets of their way of life were intentionally designed to evolve through time to fit whatever inevitable changes came to the people of this planet. Throughout history the forward thinkers, the brilliant minds, the people who dared admit that change was inevitable were often times cast aside, ridiculed, and persecuted in their lifetime, only for us to look back now and say “Aha he or she was so far ahead of their time, he was a true genius! How did people ever manage to get by before we did it this way?” It takes a bold leap, from brave souls to accept and live in the present moment. We are attempting to help with this challenge, to offer others an opportunity to see and experience how technology can bring all of us together to improve our well being.

So, it is with all of this in mind that I ask you to dare to step into the PRESENT and utilize all the tools and information that we are so lucky to possess. Today, with the help of things like a digital camera you can upload pictures of yourself and your tongue and instantly transfer them to a doctor to look at and evaluate. Today, you can electronically transmit all of your medical records to a doctor in a matter of seconds. Today, I can have a medical evaluation form ready to be filled out on your desk at your command. Today, I can order and ship medicine anywhere on the planet in 24 hours if we choose. It is really quite astounding if we stop and think about it. So, why not apply all the tools we have today to make us healthier tomorrow.
