I have been getting messages from so many of you warning me about sellers of supplements on Amazon. This latest message was this:
I just listened to Jeff Rossen and he has a show on Facebook. Anyway, he just did a show about Amazon resellers and it says half of their sellers are third party and there’s a lot of fraudulent ones including selling supplements. He said what Amazon does is when the supplements come in it doesn’t matter who the seller is. If they say it’s the same supplement brand they throw it all into one bin so when people are ordering you don’t know if you’re getting the supplements from the real seller or from the counterfeit seller.”
For example, I carry some Doublewood supplements in my office. Some 3rd party re-seller is selling them for really cheap on Amazon. These may not be the real deal, or if your leg cramps come back taking the magnesium it may not be magnesium. Another one I recommend a lot is Swanson brand garlic and cayenne for fighting off bad bacteria. It works well, but I do not have access to this wholesale on Fullscript so had been sending people to amazon to get it. From now on, I will send you directly to the company itself. I just noticed Amazon is charging more than the company directly. So, its all over the place- cheap, fake products or the real product but overpriced.
I just googled info about this Amazon problem and here is what came up:
“Yes, Amazon has a well-documented issue with third-party sellers offering counterfeit, expired, or mislabeled supplements. Multiple investigations and studies have found that a significant portion of supplements sold by third parties do not contain the active ingredients advertised, and some may even contain dangerous unlisted substances”
I normally ask people to purchase supplements directly from me at the office or on my Fullscript online dispensary to be safe, but I have definitely recommended some products on Amazon that I am not able to carry. I will be more careful about this from now on and not do this. Amazon is easy and convenient and I order a lot myself from Amazon, and have even ordered some supplements. Nitric Oxide Flow is another one. It seems to be working well for those who ordered it, but I will look for a similar one on Fullscript with same ingredients and recommend something form there from now on. Fullscript is also having a 20% off sale right now from May 18-21. Normally, all supplements are 15% off and free shipping on orders $50 or more, with GREAT American customer service.
With Amazon, they hire out from other countries and the customer service isn’t that helpful. I debated about sending this out as some will think I am just trying to be creative in selling to you to order from me. Well, I do appreciate that, as if you ask me health questions then order from somewhere else, that somewhere else did no work but gets the free sale. When you order from me it allows me to keep my appt consult prices lower than most. This helps all of you. The real reason though, is it has been brought to my attention many times about scammy Amazon supplements so thought I better address this and I do find it concerning. Dont want anyone getting something that is not legite. Sorry if you did get something that did not work or was not the real deal.
Most of you already have a Fullscript acct with me but if you do not yet, here is the link.
Did you guess BLACK SEED OIL? That is it! the most powerful natural anti-inflammatory, outperforming traditional favorites like ginger and turmeric. FYI- Black seed oil is more powerful for reducing inflammation that black cumin seed oil. Black cumin seed oil is more powerful for healing the gut and blood sugars.
I have been using black seed oil along with curcumin, BPC-157 and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. I no longer test positive for autoimmune, as my ANA titer is negative, whereas before, for many years it was positive and I had a lot of joint and muscular pain. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for me, has shown the most benefit for calming my nervous system, deeper sleep and reducing stress. It also helps many reduce inflammation. It takes 30-40 treatments to achieve this and I am at 40 sessions now, right before foot surgery. We will see how well it helps me heal and repair.
We have hyperbaric oxygen therapy at Blue Z Health but are currently 100% booked with two chambers. We have no openings. If you would like this therapy you can get on our wait list or call Dr Komadina’s office at Health Horizons and schedule sessions there. His prices are great also. There are other places in town, but they cost about double what we charge. Zia Zen and Dr Pendleton at Southwest Brain Performance Center.
Finally, I AM having foot surgery this Thursday, May 14 at 9 a.m. My liver enzymes have returned to normal. After all the testing, and being told many different possibilities- supplements are harming your liver, you have fatty liver, you need a cholesterol med, you might have cancer, your own body is attacking your liver- I knew none of these were true, even though for a brief moment I almost believed a few of them. I had my liver checked with a CT scan, and not an ounce of fat on it, and a perfect, healthy liver. My visceral fat is a 4- about as low as you can get. It came back conclusive that is was indeed Hepatitis A that attacked my liver. I ate something contaminated and have no idea where or what it was. I will never know. This can happen to anyone. So, if you go all your life with perfect liver numbers then suddenly they sky rocket, get tested for Hep A. There was no vaccine for this until 1995. So I never had a vaccine as a child or adult, because I never even knew there was one. Those of us born before 1995 probably never had a vaccine for it. I now have life long natural antibodies and can never get it again. My liver enzymes ALT and AST went from 18 and 16 to 224 and 98. It caused liver inflammation and made me very tired and made me feel very stressed for about a month. I never turned yellow nor the whites of my eyes, I just had a horrid rash on my arms that itched like crazy (because of the high liver enzymes)- I even tested for skin cancer, gluten and almond allergies- all negative, and I kept working and living life. I kept thinking it was stress and I could not get it under control that was making me feel so awful, but it was not, it was the HEP A causing the stress. I do have stress, but usually deal with it and sleep really well. Hyperbaric has also made me more calm. I never had health issues, as some have accused me of, and even some health clients. This was disheartening to say the least, but such is life.
What to learn from this- yes Naturopaths and holistic practitioners are human too. We can get sick too or hit by something unexpected. This is why it is sooo very important to always live the complete package of health, so if you do get hit by something your body is already strong and will be able to fight well, and recover well. I also take it as a blessing that I got sick with Hep A. I got a taste of the medical world to see how it is today. My foot surgeon, and my new gynecologist are amazing and both support me holistically, and I adore them. The rest of the medical world was accusatory, wanted me to take cholesterol drugs, or get off supplements- uh have you researched what a cholesterol drug does to your liver? Or told me I might have cancer. Know yourself, know your body to not believe lies, but also get the right tests to confirm your health and never give up. Most of the medical world who saw me did not know me, and they are trained to think supplements are harmful because they say the FDA does not regulate them. Some supplements are harmful, made with synthetics and seed oils, and guess who those companies are owned by- pharmaceutical companies- go figure. One example is Nature’s Made- they advertise on television a lot. Talk about synthetic and full of seed oils. Owned by Pharmavite LLC
I don’t take synthetics or seed oil supplements nor do I sell them. I read labels and help all my health clients get on the cleanest supplements. I have taken supplements for 21 years and not one has harmed my liver. I also took ALA, milk thistle, fermented broccoli sprouts, and I juiced lemons, limes, oranges and grapefruits to nourish my liver back to health. This experience has made me more compassionate of those who are suffering or stuck in the medical world and not receiving health and healing. Makes me want to do my job as a naturopath even better.
So, foot surgery is May 14 and I plan to take 8 days off then back to work. I will still be on crutches for a few more days after returning to work, then in a walking boot for 6 more weeks. This will eventually allow me to have full use of my foot again, so I can go back to jogging and hiking in the mountains without K-tape and limping. It will be hard not being as active as I am used to, but it will be like a re-set and I can re-build back again, even stronger.
Thank you for all your support everyone, who has stuck with me and did not judge me or walk away due to this crazy thing that happened to me. If you did walk away, then you probably were not meant to be here anyway.

I wanted to share because it does happen in every field of work. It is not just the medical system and big pharma that are corrupt, it happens in the holistic world too. It happens in every single field of work, Just be aware and be cautious.
There are actually some great medical doctors out there. I had an MD for many years who I adored. He supported me holistically, was always wiling to test me for whatever I asked for and get my ins to cover it, he never tried to force medications on me, and he is the one who discovered I had a severe case of Epstein Barr many years ago and helped me recover. Then he retired. I miss him a lot. I also have a great foot surgeon, who is honest and genuinely caring. He supports me holistically, and never pushes anything on me.He lets me make my own decisions about what to do with my foot, then when I decide, I follow his directions to the tee, because I trust him.
Dr Komadina is a great MD here in town. I know him personally and I know his caring and kind heart, and all he does is give to others and think of others, and it is never making a lot of money for him. He has helped me in my own business so much, and he helps me when I reach out to him. He may not always get protocols right, or some question him here in town, but none of us always get protocols right. Some tell me I did not heal them or help them and they quit. Well, WE ARE ALL HUMAN, so we are not perfect, and it is very difficult to get protocols just right. Look at me, what I went through personally with my liver issues. I had about 5 or 6 different diagnosis in my head, and doctors came up with all kinds of random ideas as to what happened. I know my body well, and I know I did nothing to harm my liver. Not even stress was the cause. Something viciously attacked me liver. My hunch is still HEP A, after all is said and done. I went back and forth, all over the place trying to figure it out, and so many tests. The best part is I know me and I know my body, so I did what was best for my liver and my body. My liver and stomach (from the gastritis) are both healed and fine now. Even though for a month I felt wretched. I chose my own protocols and they worked, but it was a lot of trial and error, tweaking protocols, not giving up, being consistent and trusting the process. I was also very healthy to begin with so my body did not have underlying issues to keep it sick. My body knows how to heal. This is whatI try to teach all- know your body, know protocols and why you are doing them and work to heal whatever your health issues are. Never give up.
With that said, I know I talk a lot about how messed up the medical world is-relating to every day health, anyway. Yeah, it is messed up and a money making machine, but so are some holistic practitioners and doctors. One example is Dr Axe. A few of you have come to me now telling me you signed up for his $8500 four month program for health. Wait a minute, that is a red flag right there. $8500??? That’s already a rip off. Even worse, you do not get to work with Dr Axe. He hires out folks that seem to be from other countries. They all have foreign accents. and the consults are short and scripted. They do not spend time with you personally, to know your personal health issues as there is not a one size fits all health plan, except for eating real food, exercising, sleeping well, drinking clean water, etc. Those are just basic staples that are a must for everyone. Dr Axe’s program requires you to buy a large amount of his overpiced supplements and no real direction on how to take them or why. When someone tries to get a refund it is very difficult, and in the end I have been told, his program did not help. The people left confused, frustrated and still sick. You can check on Better business bureau. Lots of complaints. I am so upset about this I now refuse to listen to Dr Axe anymore or buy his supplements. He also claims to run a Christian business. Even more troubling, as this is not Christian behavior at all.
Dr Hyman’s Function Health is similar, though not as bad. I have had experience here. You are forced on autopays that are hard to get out of and if you forget to stop it in time then no refund. There are a lot of adds claiming discounts. I signed up for one that was $300 to get the full bio markers testing and then I was not able to schedule my quest blood work. When I contacted the company- they only communicate by email- they told me I had to pay an additional $365 to set up my lab work and now I can test 2x, the 2nd time being 6 months later. Well, I only wanted to test once, but they said I had to pay for both or I get nothing. I did get a refund, and they did communicate with me, but I don’t appreciate the tricky sales ads, and the autopays.
There is nothing wrong with making money. We all have to make money to survive, but some people choose money as their first priority over caring about others and the greed is pretty extreme. This is not okay, and just always be aware. If you feel uncomfortable or seeing a red flag, then run.
Finally, many have been asking me to type up basic protocols for example-if you get the flu, step throat, sinus infection, UTI- holistic protocols to turn to immediately and have everything on hand right away, to know what to do. I did write the LITTLE HEALTH HANDBOOK awhile back and sold many of them. I do need to update that booklet and have an edition 2. If I do get my foot surgery this time around on May 14, I hope to update the handbook while at home recovering. If I get blocked from having surgery a 2nd time I will take that as a sign it is just not meant to be and stop scheduling surgery, but still work on updating the handbook anyway. 🙂

Good things are happening in the state of Florida because of the governors wife. She is all about health, and has taken the initiative to create some very educational websites. She has also sent many store candies, breads, and infant formula products to be 3rd party tested for toxins and glyphosate. She has the whole list available not only for her state, but for anyone to view. What a great lady. Every state should be doing this.
RFK is moving towards requiring hospitals to serve healthy food to the sick who are admitted there instead of pure junkfood poison, making these poor people even sicker. Good changes are happening, slowly but surely, and more are becoming educated and turning towards real health.
The only way to truly stop the corruption of BIG junkfood, BIG pharma, and BIG medical etc, is to stop participating in the insanity of it all. Just say no, but it takes the majority doing this, not just some. We have so much [power as citizens but we have to all unify together and all do this or it doesn’t work.
As long as you keep buying sodas, donuts, fast food, energy drinks, glyphosate ridden foods, and cheap poison, then you are participating in keeping the corrupt system alive. The biggest harm is against our children, and that is why a lot of the early focus from the Florida governor’s wife is this poison we are feeding to our children. It is heartbreaking, so don’t participate, and most certainly protect your children. Be an example to them. You will help give them a better future,
With all that said, here are the links. Check them out!
Also, TWO of the most important lab/blood tests you can get that medical doctors won’t test because health ins won’t pay and Big Pharma doesn’t want you tested, are the full 16 panel of cholesterol testing and fasting insulin test. The four basic cholesterol tests ins covers does not give us enough information. It is to medicate people, not to look at the whole picture. Just because someone has a overall cholesterol number or LDL number higher than big pharma instructs the medical world on does not mean this person is in danger of heart disease or heart attack, and also just because you have lower numbers that they like does not mean you are safe either Do not be fooled either way.
i can definitely decipher a bit from the four basic numbers they test and sometimes I am really concerned with the numbers. After all, heart disease is the number one killer in America. The main causes are eating a lot of white sugar, corn syrup foods and drinks- in sodas and more, and fast food and trans fats/seed oils. Lack of exercise and alcohol also play a role. These all contribute to harming your heart, not to mention stress- one I have to greatly work on myself.
Here are my cholesterol numbers- no Hippa against myself so I can share my numbers as an example.
Overall number, depending on when you test me, can be anywhere from 220-232. I fluctuate between these numbers, Triglycerides- usually between 60-70. HDL- usually between 75-85 and LDL usually between 128-138. Medical doctors are obsessed with telling me I have high cholesterol and even saying this is the cause of my sudden high liver enzymes.. Don’t think so, not at all.
So, everyone who eats meat will have higher LDL. If you eat conventional meat and junkfood, fast food type meats, processed deli meats, pork, etc then your LDL probably is dangerous. Eating grass fed, organic fed, pasture raised, wild caught meats and not a lot of sugar or trans fat then LDL is probably fine. You also need to take your HDL number x 2.5 and it should be higher than your LDL for another good sign that LDL is okay.
You also need to test your HDL and LDL particle sizes. Ins won’t pay for this. The particle sizes are what counts- are they soft and fluffy or dense and hard, clogging your arteries? Apolipoprotein b test goes along with this, as well and Lp-PLA2- are you currently forming dangerous plaque in your arteries? Finally, Apolipoprotein a helps us know if your have a genetic issue with high cholesterol or not-some do, but not many. Most bad cholesterol is caused from poor choices.
I can test any of these for anyone at QUEST labs. It just costs about $160. I believe this test is soooo important. I have tested myself too and I tell medical Drs about it and they know what these tests are, but most are not interested.
Finally, fasting insulin is much more accurate than A1C and can let you know years in advance if you are heading toward type 2 diabetes. It can also let you know if you are already there, even if you A1C is great at 5.2 or under, yes, you can still be diabetic. I have had some with low A1C and their fasting insulin be thru the roof. This is called insulin resistance and your body cannot heal, lose belly fat or liver fat until this is corrected. You go to the lab fasted overnight with no food, and so your insulin should be low. We make insulin every time we eat, so when we are not eating if our insulin is still high then you are insulin resistant which also puts you are greater risk for type 3 diabetes of the brain.
I have also seen quite a few with A1C of 6.2 and told they are diabetic but their insulin is a 6. They are not diabetic. Your fasting insulin should be 3-8 max to not be insulin resistant. This test costs roughly $40
Protect yourselves, know your numbers and also follow Mable’s great advice. I hope you enjoy her video!

RFK is Promoting Glyphosate in America- Trump Signed an Executive Order for it.
When I first heard that in late February, President Trump has taken executive action to promote the domestic production of glyphosate and RFK is backing him I was flabbergasted. How could this be? Why would they do this, especially RFK who has been so against it. We can stop there and totally freak out, get angry and believe just that OR…. look at the whole picture going on. I chose to look at the whole picture. This is still not good, and this gal I follow, who is a nutritionist, explains it all well. I would agree with her totally. You can also listen to the whole podcast on Joe Rogan interviewing RFK about 3 weeks ago. Just go to Joe Rogan on Youtube and look for the podcast with RFK or I can post it at the bottom here. This one below is the nutritionist and a must listen:
In the above video- please watch all it to get ALL the info, as she also talks about eating organic and so many say it is too expensive. Well, it is, but have you asked those with cancer how much their chemo bills are, even with insurance? Many go into debt and have bills that are $50,000-$100,000, after ins pays their part. That is way more expensive, then after that, your body and cells are more damaged, and your pocket book too, so even harder to afford to eat organic. Do it now, don’t wait. Glyphosate is real and it does cause disease and cancer, and even infertility.
I was in the medical system myself just recently, with not being able to have my foot surgery due to my liver enzymes being so high, and trying to figure it all out. We got our health ins statement, and there are already $2500 worth of charges that were billed to the health ins. This much money just for a few 20 minute appts and blood tests??? Is totally shocking, and actually I received no help medically. The nurse practitioner who was in charge of clearing me for surgery had no idea what to do or what to test me for, so I had to tell her what to test me for, and half the tests I just put in for myself and paid out of pocket, because I did not feel like trying to beg and plead to get her to do the additional testing for me. She also never called me about my test results when the Hep A came back “reactive” as you are supposed to have a 2nd IgG test to confirm. She did not do this, I had to put in for the test myself. I was also accused of having possible fatty liver, high cholesterol and taking supplements, so they harmed my liver. It has all been pretty shocking, but just a reminder of what so many of your go thru or have gone thru in this corrupt medical system. It is a racket of making lots and lots of money as a first priority. It can be intimidating, frustrating, super expensive and no help at all with real health.
Back the glyphosate- the easiest way to get rid of it here in America is to not participate in consuming it. DO NOT put it into your body. There are rules for organic and regenerative farming to NOT be sprayed with glyphosate pesticides, so stick with this. You can also even do a test to see what your glyphosate load is. The only way to eliminate it from your body is to not eat it. Humic and Fulvic Acid. and Activated charcoal can also asssit in pulling it out of your system.
My next newsletter will be from an 103 year old lady with excellent words of wisdom. Also, many are not getting my newsletters and square is not being helpful with me being able to get them subscribed. Square, as well as Amazon and many other companies are now outsourcing their customer service to India and they do not often know how to help This happened to me when I tried to figure out how to subscribe those NOT getting my newsletters. I got no help. So check my website often as well, as each newsletter will be posted there too.
Finally make sure to always have critical thinking skills. Do not take for truth what main media tells you, as they want to get you all ruffled. Really research and look at the whole picture, just like this example with glyphosate and RFK approving it. Still not good, but listen the the WHOLE STORY.
