Dr. Holly Fourchalk
Dr. Holly Fourchalk practiced as a registered therapist for 20 years. During that time she questioned the fact that the brain requires nutrients to create neurons, neurotransmitters, transport systems, to fuel processes and to eliminate toxins. If one’s brain doesn’t have the sufficient nutrients and capacity to detox, she surmised, then surely that would affect one’s capacity to think, feel and function. Always working with leading edge science, she continued her research of the mind and brain outside of the psychological parameters. When she went on to study Naturopathic Medicine, she found that there were various dysfunctions, disorders and depletions in the body known to cause psychological issues, including depression and anxiety. Transferring from Naturopathic Medicine to Doctor of Natural Medicine, she also finished her Ph.D in Nutrition and a Master’s Degree in Herbal Medicine. She went to India to study Ayurvedic Medicine and followed that with studies in German Homeopathy. She continues to expand her knowledge of ways to help people heal from today’s common ailments that allopathic medicine tends to simply manage. Dr. Holly’s mission is to empower people to reach their full potential in all aspects of health. Her in-depth understanding and training, in so many different modalities of healing, allows her to address the inter-connections between the mind and body allow her to help people in ways that few others can achieve. She is a passionate health researcher and an engaging teacher. Everybody needs a Dr. Holly.Also see Dr. Holly’s other books.

DISCLAIMER
Every effort has been made by the author to ensure that the information in this book is as accurate as possible. However, it is by no means a complete or exhaustive examination of all information.
The author knows what worked for her and what has worked for others but no two people are the same. Therefore, the author cannot and does not render judgment or advice regarding a particular individual.
Further, because each body is unique, any two individuals may experience different results from the same therapy.
The author believes in both prevention and the superiority of a natural non-invasive approach over drugs and surgery.
The information collected within comes from a variety of researchers and sources from around the world. This information has been accumulated in the western healing arts over the past thirty years.
Research has shown that one of the top three leading causes of death in North America occurs because of the physician/pharmaceutical component of the scenario.
Perhaps the real leading cause of death and disability is a result of the lack of awareness of natural therapies. These therapies are well known to prevent and treat many common degenerative, inflammatory and oxidative diseases.
The author loves to research and loves to teach. This book is another attempt to increase awareness about health and the many options
