As we age, many of us become increasingly concerned about our health and longevity. While women tend to live longer than men, their health often declines significantly around the age of 69. This decline can lead to chronic conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, and arthritis, all of which severely impact quality of life. However, the good news is that we can take proactive steps to improve our health and longevity, starting as early as our 40s. One of the simplest yet most effective ways to begin this journey is through detoxification.

Hyperthyroidism and Grave's Disease are autoimmune conditions that affect the thyroid gland, leading to symptoms like weight loss, anxiety, and sleep disturbances. Conventional treatments typically aim to manage symptoms and might involve medications, radioactive iodine therapy, or even surgery.

For many of us, digestive issues like IBS are all too familiar. IBS is a functional gastrointestinal disorder that manifests through a range of symptoms such as diarrhea, abdominal pain, bloating, and constipation.

Adrenal fatigue is a condition that affects many of us, especially those of us who lead high-stress lives. It occurs when the adrenal glands, which sit on top of the kidneys, become overworked and are unable to produce enough cortisol, the stress hormone. This can lead to a range of symptoms, including chronic fatigue, sleep disturbances, hormonal imbalances, and more.

Many of us, especially moms, struggle with the overwhelming mental load that comes with juggling multiple responsibilities.
