May 2008

Peter Drucker said, “The best way to predict the future is to create it.”

Diet is a key factor in predicting future health for everyone, but sometimes is it especially important. This month’s article discusses nutritional strategies that benefit people who have cancer.

Other topics this month include music therapy for depression and MSRA. Also, spring cleanse support continues with another simple and delicious detox-friendly menu.

Happy reading,

Sarah Cimperman, ND
