Guest guest Posted August 20, 2002 Report Share Posted August 20, 2002 Do you know someone in Whatcom County who wants to: * recover or improve their health? * lose some weight and feel better? * improve their athletic performance? * increase their mental clarity and emotional availability?

What experts have to say about Dr. Doug Graham " I started feeling better immediately, had much more energy, and recommended Dr. Graham to the entire diving team. " Dr. Don Green Sports psychologist U.S. Olympic Diving Team " If you are ready to 'wow' your whole self, become comprehensively trained, healthy and fit, and have easy to understand feedback measurements - read, study, and use the work of Dr. Douglas Graham. " Mark Victor Hansen, Motivational Speaker Co-Author of the Chicken Soup for the Soul series of books From Illness to Health - A Personal Story By: Bev S I first met Dr Graham in late January 2001, eight months after my lung collapsed during a routine biopsy to determine the character of a growing lung tumor. That meeting was also about seven months after my first professionally supervised water fast and my decision to refrain from eating animal products of any kind including dairy. With my severe level of COPD [chronic obstructive pulmonary disease], mainly emphysema from years of smoking much earlier in my life, I was searching for " treatments " which would improve my quality of life without surgery and the sure promise of more near-death experiences, if indeed not the ultimate one. Becoming a vegetarian helped, but even after my second fast last September, I soon reached a plateau that would not lift. I was eating tons of steamed vegetables, brown rice, rolled oats, and potatoes daily - all organic, of course. So this last January, all the recommendations that Dr. Graham made seemed like a big stretch. He challenged me to " GO RAW " for two weeks and notice the difference in my lung FUNCTION. My husband joined me out of convenience, since he was the cook in our house [now the un-cook]. I was astonished! We both were! My ability to breathe and perform routine daily chores soared. I'm hardly physically fit, but " going raw, sans grains, " has made such a difference in my life and has given me new hope for continued partial if not full recovery. I am grateful for Dr. Graham's words of wisdom - some from the consultation, some from books and some from tapes. His two slender volumes, GRAIN DAMAGE and NUTRITION AND ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE, are must-reads. This is a journey and it is FAR from over (an emphasis I would not have given six months ago). I've taken myself off the critically ill list and on to the " much more healthy than before " list. I still have a long way to go and refinements to make. But I now feel I'm on the right road going in the right direction. I have hope now. I have Dr. Graham to thank for that; and Marr Nealon, too, for insisting I hear him lecture! It has changed my life!
