To borrow a phrase from a Whole Foods nutritional company, Standard Process®
"Americans are overfed and undernourished".
"I stopped going to Spicer Wellness for a couple of months due to a
surgery. I couldn't wait to go back.
Dr Spicer is the best at making
your body feel whole.
He is great at working with his patients and
their nutrition to make the inner body work with the skeletal body.
I
look forward to each appointment." Fran Walz
Let's start with why you might choose to read this page.
Let me ask you a few questions:
- Do you suffer from fatigue?
- Do you have a hard time getting out of bed in the morning?
- Are your hands and feet always cold?
- Do you have menstrual problems?
- Are you sad or depressed most of the time?
- Do you have more weight on your frame than you want?
- Have you been trying to conceive a baby and haven't had any luck?
- Do you ache all over your body?
- Do you need to have your cup of coffee and sugary doughnut in the morning "just to get going"?
- Have you been the "medical" route and nothing has worked for you?
- Are you on 5, 10, 15, 20 medications and you feel like you are experiencing a slow death while you watch your body decay?
- Have you heard that the foods you are getting at the grocery store are killing you and that you should be eating more fresh vegetables?
- Do you suffer from diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, or other chronic health diseases?
If so, you might want to read on...
You are not alone if you suffer from any of the challenges above. The good news is, there is help for you. The bad news is, health and wellness is a participation sport. It takes education, effort, and some money to reverse the damages you have inflicted on your body. With obesity, diabetes and chronic degenerative diseases rates skyrocketing, it's time for all of us to take a step back and really look at what we are putting into our bodies.
Know that the quality of the foods we put into our mouths has dramatically declined. The food industry has deliberately removed the healthy enzymes, nutrients, and minerals in our foods and replaced the components our bodies need to be healthy with synthetic chemicals, preservatives, vitamins, and colors to extend the shelf life of their products and make them look good. The longer products can stay on the shelves of the grocery store without rotting, the more money the food industry makes. The price of "progress" comes at a cost. Unfortunately, the micro-nutrients, enzymes, minerals and things that we don't even know what they do yet are missing from our foods now.
When you don't give the body what it needs to repair itself, it breaks down. Plain and simple. Fertility goes down, chronic health problems go up. People get sick.
To dramatically illustrate the point:
Pottenger's Cats: A Study in Nutrition
Pottenger's Cats: A Study in Nutrition reports on an experiment that included 900 cats over four generations. The cats were divided into five groups. All the groups were supplied the same basic minimal diet, but the major portion of the diets were varied. Two of the groups were fed raw foods (raw milk and meat - real foods for cats). The other three groups were given processed foods: pasteurized, evaporated and condensed milk.
All four generations of the raw meat and raw milk groups remained healthy throughout their normal life spans. The first generation of all three processed food groups developed diseases and illnesses near the end of their lives. The second generation of all three processed food groups developed diseases and illnesses in the middle of their lives. The third-generation of all three processed food groups developed diseases and illnesses in the beginning of their lives and many died before six months of age. There was no fourth-generation in any of the three processed food groups. Either the third-generation parents were sterile, or the fourth-generation cats died before birth! Remember, all four generations of the raw food groups were healthy throughout their normal life spans.
Does this give you an understanding of why so many children are now developing cancer? Why so many children are now on pharmaceutical drugs handed out by their doctors like candy? Why there were no fertility clinics 30 years ago?
There is no similar experiment in medical literature. The findings were supervised by Dr. Pottenger along with Dr. Alvin Foord professor of pathology at the University of Southern California and pathologist at the Huntington Memorial Hospital in Pasadena. These studies met the most rigorous scientific standards of their day.
The good news again is, that it's not too late to make dramatic improvements in the quality of your life!
The time is now to look at what nutrition can do for your health,
There are many ways to help people with nutritional challenges. Solutions to nutritional challenges can range from being as simple as merely cutting out or back on the number of soda's you drink to modifying diet slowly and surely towards a healthier way of eating. There are many whole food products that can assist your body in getting the raw materials it needs to repair the damage done from eating the junk we call food from the grocery store, the toxins we are exposed to in our environment, and the stress that is killing off our vitality and health one day at a time.
Depending on your level of commitment, I provide up to 3 ways you can assess your nutritional needs:
Good:
- Complete a 7 day Food Profile to get a handle on what you really are putting in your mouth for nourishment.
- Complete the Toxicity Questionaire to see if a Nutritional Purification Program is right for you.
- Go to the (First Visit Forms page ), on this website and download the forms for yourself. You can fill them out, and schedule a nutritional consultation. There is no charge for this 15 minute consultation.
Better:
- Complete the above and download and fill out the Symptom Survey Form from the First Visit Forms page to get a better handle on the areas of your nutritional needs.
- Schedule a nutritional physical exam and time to go over the results of the test above. (Cost = $35).
Best:
- Should you care to really take charge of your body, I practice Nutrition Response Testing in which your body to tells us exactly what it needs to overcome it's nutritional challenges.
Remember that I will be nourishing your body with primarily WHOLE FOOD nutrition and occasionally herbal and homeopathic products. I will not be using TOXIC pharmaceuticals or substances that force your body to do something is doesn't want to do. I provide "genuine replacement parts" for your body via whole food supplements and coaching you on your diet.
I have found a HUGE correlation between good nutrition and moving towards wellness.
Now it is time for you to choose. Do you want to live a life that slowly declines in vitality while adding medication upon medication until the end of your days?
Or do you want to invest in yourself and your health now to be able to play and run and get out into the world in your golden days?
