Our Standard American Diet (also known as S.A.D.) is loaded with toxins, refined sugars and high fructose corn syrup, man-made fats, and artificial additives. The long term abuse of this type of eating plan has caused hormone receptors to burn-out leading to a cascade of hormonal imbalances in our bodies.

Hormones are chemical messengers that control multiple functions throughout the body. Too much or too little of a hormone will cause malfunction in many of the body's pathways. When under stress, your stress hormones (adrenal function) will increase, and whether it's external or internal stress, your body produces more cortisol.

What would it be like to wake up refreshed, healthy, and energized to tackle the day ahead? What kind of energy do you need to make it through a day without the crutch of caffeine? Are you on the energy roller-coaster? Maybe hitting a plateau mid-morning or after lunch? People who have a hard time rising in the morning, or who suffer with low energy throughout the day are often diagnosed with adrenal fatigue and dysregulated blood sugar levels.

If you have a child with a serious health concern or disease, you already know the magnitude of the epidemic we as parents are facing. Why are so many of our children sick, overweight, and not developing properly? Why now and not before? These are the questions we seek to answer with you. America's obesity, Autism, and ADD/ADHD epidemic is a devastating health crisis, and it is affecting more and more of our children at earlier ages.

Our standard American exercise regimen using long duration exercise can potentially stimulate appetite, increase fat storing, is catabolic (breaks down muscle), and can raise stress hormones (cortisol) slowing down exercise recovery. A decrease in immune function, testosterone and HGH (human growth hormone) is frequently seen as well.
