This is an excellent website, organization and outstanding overview piece by an ND who is on the board of the Westin A Price Foundation. Where did I learn about this organization? At my holistic dentist's office -- Jim Kennedy, DDS, who has contributed some pieces in this forum as well. I don't believe in 'reinventing the wheel' but in linking/connecting valid, progressive providers and content together at Lumigrate, thereby streamlining everyone's ability to find a really nice complement of information. And we also throw in some FUN about it, too. (For instance, Yenta's Forum titled "It Can't Hurt" which right now is in the fibromyalgia section, though we might move it around soon -- our following is now broadening and most are not specifically looking in the FM section anymore! I hesitate to move things -- I'm one of those people that don't like it when the store changes where they put something on the shelves either!)
I encourage you to follow this link and learn -- then please Print and give out, email, talk one on one to those YOU think might benefit from this type of information. I'm finally sleeping WELL without medication most of the nights now, for the first time in my life and I'd done a lot of things -- detoxing, removing mercury amalgam, food allergy eating changes, etc., and it helped but wasn't 'it'. Having the type of orthodontics that are described in this piece have made 'all the difference in the world'. And, while I'd seen Dr Kennedy speak to medical providers TWICE before making an appointment early in 2011, then had the 1:1 education with him, I found this an outstanding educational piece in addition to the several hours of education I had obtained previously. ~~Mardy

Follow us on social networking sites such as: Twitter: http://twitter.com/lumigrate [2] and Facebook. (There is my personal page and several Lumigrate pages. For those interested in "groovy" local education and networking for those uniquely talented LumiGRATE experts located in my own back yard, "LumiGRATE Groove of the Grand Valley" is a Facebook page to join. (Many who have joined are beyond our area but like to see the Groovy information! We not only have FUN, we are learning about other providers we can be referring patients to and 'wearing a groove' to each other's doors -- or websites/home offices!) By covering some of the things we do, including case examples, it reinforces the concepts at Lumigrate.com as well as making YOU feel that you're part of a community. Which you ARE at Lumigrate!
