Dr. Lance Miller Diabetes is the fastest growing epidemic facing the United States today. 1 in 4 people will develop it. 1 in 2 have diabetes but do know they have it. But what if I told you can stop it before it starts. First a brief history of diabetes. The term diabetes is the shortened version of the full name diabetes mellitus, or adult-onset diabetes, from the Greek word diabetes meaning siphon and the Latin word Mellitus sweet.  The ancient Indians tested for diabetes by looking at whether ants were attracted to a person's urine. Then in 1675 Thomas Willis added the word “'Mellitus'” to the word diabetes. This was because of the sweet taste of the urine. (I don’t know why he tasted someone’s urine?) It was in 1936 that Sir Harold Percival (Harry) H...

I have used Vision Boards for years. I taught my kids how to make Vision Boards to create the space to bring into reality their wants. Example: My son skated with a team using inline skates. They started at $800.00 dollars and went up from there. He made a vision board with skaters, skating rink, trophies and the skates he desired and a specific request that they are donated so we didn't have to come up with such a sizable amount. The skating rink loaned him a pair however they were used by everyone and not competition quality. About a month went by with Jay (my son) looking at the board first thing in the morning and the last thing at night. We got a call one morning that a pair of skates had been donated by a young man who for many reasons could not compete any longer, he just wante...

EFT or Tapping as it is often referred to is an outstanding modality to ease emotional pain, quickly and effectively. It is being used world wide to help our soldiers combat PTSD. Read about and inform yourself and see if it is a way of dealing with any of the issues that keep you from enjoying life. Emotional Freedom Techniques, or EFT (often known as Tapping or EFT Tapping), is a universal healing tool that can provide impressive results for physical, emotional, and performance issues. EFT operates on the premise that no matter what part of your life needs improvement, there are unresolved emotional issues in the way. Even for physical issues, chronic pain, or diagnosed conditions, it is common knowledge that any kind of emotional stress can impede the natural healing potential of th...

To successfully manifest your new intentions, experiences or desires, you must first create space for the new. Every year on New Years eve, I perform a sacred letting go ritual where I write down everything that I am willing to release, to make space for the magic of the new year. Here is an example…..you would like to have some new clothes however all your closets are filled with old mostly outdated, some too big, some too small ones, however you keep them mainly because they are comfortable and you know how they feel. You are getting older and you realize as you begin to mellow that you aren’t happy in your life and you really want to have new clothes however you no longer have any space, every closet in your home is stuffed with outdated c...

Stevia is Native to Paraguay and other tropical areas of the Americas, the stevia plant (Stevia rebaudiana) produces leaves packed with super-sweet compounds that remain stable even after the leaves have been dried. Stevia leaves have been used to sweeten teas and beverages throughout South America for centuries. It is not chemically made in a laboratory-like NutraSweet or Splenda. It is safe for everyone especially diabetics. Xylitol another non-chemical sweetner often referred to as sugar alcohol can sometimes produce nausea type feeling after use if you are a diabetic. Stevia, on the other hand, is a safe alternative and one that I have used in my tea and coffee for years. Monk Fruit is a wonderful sweetener and again a non-chemically made. This is what I use in all my baki...

The therapy of the colon (large intestine) and its benefits have been known and practiced for hundreds of years. Dating back to ancient times, enemas were recorded as early as 1500 B.C., in an Egyptian medical document called the “Eber Papyrus”. Hippocrates, Pare and Galen also advanced the use of enema therapy. In earlier times, people implemented enema treatments in a river by using a hollow reed to induce water to flow into the rectum. At an early time in America… Enemas were a commonly used procedure to help maintain health and stave off disease. For example, before the departure of the Lewis and Clarke expedition, a physician instructed them in the appropriateness of using enemas in cases of fever and illness. Our grandparents and great-grandparents grew up with the use of...

Probiotics are live bacteria that help keep your digestive system healthy. The colony of microorganisms in the body is essential in maintaining physiological processes, most notably the conversion of food to essential nutrients and transport of nutrients in the body. Before we delve into sources of probiotics and their associated health benefits, let’s understand what they are, how they function, and the mechanism in which they influence other functions in the body.
