A note from Dr. Aldrich: “Eleven years ago I stood in the Emergency Room watching the hope of our first child vanish-a miscarriage. But now my wife and I found the nutrition solutions that strengthened us and brought us two healthy children. This is the nutrition information I develop for anyone interested in establishing a strong foundation for healthy living. Most people don’t realize the significant effect that whole foods can have on their health and recovery. The medical evidence is here for whole food therapy that is effective to improve your health. Many people pay significant money for health care that does not work for them. They are wasting their money and their health continues to slip away. There is a simple whole food solution that can be created just for you.”
