Q. I really DO want this to work, but I’ve tried so many other diets and failed. Why should I believe this will work?

A. Diets are doomed to fail, mostly because the people using them think of them as “temporary”. Anything would work to lose weight, gain vitality and feel better – eating just grapefruits or only protein or only raw foods. More than 90% of people will eventually go back to their old way of eating and gain all that weight back again.
The trick is finding the right diet for your particular body, your lifestyle and your needs – when you find the right way of eating for your body and you see the phenomenal results, you will find it easy to “stick with it”.
Taking the metabolic type test “Meta-Type Quiz” given FREE through this website will help you choose the method that is right for your body, once and for all.

Q. I’ve never used Chinese herbs before.  What are they? Will they interact negatively with my current prescriptions, give me awful side effects or cause me any problems?

A. Eastern medicine has been healing people for centuries. When Western doctors were still applying leeches and thinking disease was caused by bad vapors in the air, Eastern (Chinese) medicine was curing all kinds of severe medical conditions from arthritis to bronchitis, from pneumonia to migraines and kidney stones.  There are more than 3,500 medical doctors in the USA who now regularly prescribe Chinese herbs to their patients.

Chinese herbs have been tested on real people over many hundreds of years and work with the body to naturally restore health and vitality. There are no side effects and no drug interactions possible from using them, and tens of thousands of Americans now benefit from these ancient healing secrets every year.

Q. What is a “meta-type” or a “metabolic type”?

There are six basic energetic profiles for humans, based on how the energy flows within your body.  These determine, among other things, how you think, how you feel, how much vitality you have, how much energy you have available, the amount of sleep you need, and what types of food will enable you to function fully and healthfully for the rest of your life.

Chinese medicine approaches health differently than Western medicine, which is mostly just about relieving whatever symptoms are present.  Chinese medicine takes into account the whole person – your lifestyle, your stress level, your body, mind, spirit and heart – basically all that you are.  Knowing and living in accordance with age-old principles ideal for your specific metabolic type is key to a vital life and longevity.

Q. How long before I know if it’s working?

A. If you begin making changes in your diet as a result of discovering your metabolic type, you will start seeing some improvements in your overall health within 2-3 weeks. If you accelerate your transformation with any of our  type-specific supplements, you will see bigger results in less time. Some patients have reported 72 hours!  But for most people, 4-8 days is normal for noticeable differences in the way you feel, and by two weeks (with supplement use) you should feel a dramatic difference.
