How it all started

Just like a journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step, mine began with a tiny personal act of resistance...

...I refused to take Tylenol

The problem

Have you ever felt that you are not really sick, but not exactly healthy either? While you donÂ’t have huge health issues, something hurts every day, headaches and back pain become normal, almost an expected feature of the day? Exhausted, you hit the bed, but cannot fall asleep for hours? And every morning you wake up already tired?

That was me. At 30-something I felt like an old, cracked, squeaking boat. Stressed, depressed, barely keeping myself afloat.

Solution #1

"Get some Tylenol, dear."- my family doctor told me,"You are not getting any younger, it will only get worse."

No, thanks! Solution #2

I did not go this route again.

Instead, I researched my symptoms in medical literature, both mainstream and alternative. Particularly, I was interested in the work of medical doctors who took a holistic approach to curing diseases.

Why? Because I know it works! Many years ago in Ukraine, doctors cured my little daughter from pancreas problems and extreme case of allergy with a combination of medications and healthy diet. Medical doctors routinely prescribe dietary changes out there.

Being a mathematician with a curious mind, I examined the statistics supporting every claim, and believed peer-reviewed research the most. The best opponents, professionals in the field, reviewed the design of someoneÂ’s experiment, and if they cannot find flaws, the theory is probably right.

The result was a change of my lifestyle, previously thought to be reasonably healthy.

What did I find?

I found out that before a disease occurs, its precursors look exactly like my symptoms.

Healthy food, right state of mind and moderate exercise, not Tylenol, were the right treatment options.

And what is that healthy food? I thought I ate healthy!

I did not buy chips, burgers, or doughnuts. I cooked.

I relied on wisdom of the most respected researchers and scientists in the field. I examined the claims of all the groups: vegetarian, vegan, raw foodists, macrobiotics, people who fast and folks who juice, and lived their lifestyle in order to experiment. I took the best ideas of every diet and created my own.

And the result is...

While trying all this, I felt the results:

  • I havenÂ’t had a headache for years now.
  • My energy was steadily increasing.
  • My sleep started to come back to normal.
  • My blood pressure went down.
  • I shed pounds without dieting.

All without feeling deprived or too occupied by cooking. I ate delicious meals instead of being on a restrictive diet.
