4 Pillars of Health (1.5 hr / $42)
There are four separate metabolic phases that the body must go through in order to turn food into either energy or mass. Those phases are:
1. Digestion
2. Absorption
3. Utilization
4. Elimination
The old adage, “You’re only as strong as your weakest link,” applies here. So, you may be eating good food, if you're not then that's a good place to start, but how well is your body digesting, absorbing and utilizing that food? And finally, how well do you eliminate the waste product from the metabolism of that food? I can show you any disease—from anxiety and depression to cancer or autoimmune disease, IBS to insomnia can be traced back to the integrity of these four pillars. A weak link in any of them can lead us to disease. But there is a way to restore them if you know how.
Radhia Gleis, Med, CCN
CAE Credits; Bio-med .5, General acupuncture 1
