Best of the Mediterranean Action Plan (55 page pdf) - 9.95untitled.bmp (1574 bytes)  
Inflammation is at the root of many of the common chronic diseases 
that afflict us today. The Mediterranean diet solidifies its claim as the 
best long-term dietary lifestyle choice because its balance of lean protein 
and fish, copious fruits/vegetables, and healthy fats furthers the 
"never eat a carb alone" and "eat real food" mantras. 

The Mediterranean diet has  myriad variations (twelve to be exact). 
We have taken the best of them all and put into a "Clifs notes" version. 
Along with lifestyle tips, Best of the Mediterranean Action Plan boasts 
pantry staples and over 100 recipes that appeal to any intolerance or allergy.

Candida Action Plan (11 page pdf) - 6.95untitled.bmp (1574 bytes)

we have gathered over twenty years of working with chronic yeast patients. 
While it can never take the place of an individualized consultation, it is as complete 
a self-help plan as there is. Highlights include yeast foods list, yeast-free food plan 
with shopping list, natural remedies, and safe pharmacological therapy to discuss with your physician.

had diminished so much that I even slept better. By the end of the
