Memorable quotes:
“When we talk about inflammation, it’s not just, oh I got inflammation in my pinky finger. It’s really systemic, perhaps our whole body.”
“It’s really a movement disorder and most symptoms happen facially. People are scrunching their faces and a lot of kids are jerking their necks or clapping their hands or rapid eye blinking.”
“Your environment plays a big role in how your body is going to function.”
“Really using the right test from the start and getting the right answers from somebody who knows how to analyze them is going to be worth any extra investment that you are going to make.”
“My first test would be a food sensitivity test just to really refine the diet.”
“I think that a huge part of the process for my clients is that it teaches their children how to listen to their body.”
