Female Health, Grounding, Healthy Mindframe, Intuitive Medicine, Soul Healing / By Laura Koniver, MD

New evidence shows that having measurable levels of pesticide metabolites in your blood increases your risk of Alzheimer’s disease by 400%. Published on January 27, 2014 in JAMA Neurology, a new study shows that high levels of DDE (a metabolic by-product of notorious pesticide DDT) in the body was found to cause a 4-fold increase in Alzheimers Disease risk. This study confirms that if there are serum levels of DDE in your blood (from pesticide exposure) this is crossing your blood-brain barrier and directly affecting your brain.

Female Health, Intuitive Medicine, Medical Reports, Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

Can’t poop? That energetic release process gets S-L-O-W-E-D…. D-O-W-N… way down. You can fix it naturally, though. Here is how: 1. Water Recent medical …

Allergic rhinitis patients have a decreased risk of heart attack, a decreased risk of stroke and over all a significantly decreased risk of all-cause mortality! “They were basically half as likely to die during the study period,” says Dr. Crans Yoon, after looking at a database of over 200,000+ allergic rhinitis patients and following those patients for a 7 year period.

A Healing Prayer For You

Healthy Mindframe, Intuitive Medicine, Soul Healing / By Laura Koniver, MD

My daughter is 12. She is unique and wonderful and spiritual and wise. Instead of playing around with make up and talking on the phone and rolling her eyes if I ask her to put away her clothes, like I did at her age, she writes novels and reads historical fiction and studies religion and creates beautiful things with her pen, drawings and artwork and prayers. Like this prayer. She wrote this and from the first moment I read it, I knew I wanted to incorporate this prayer into my work with my own patients. Now, it …
