“Life is for you to explore, have fun, try new things. You are here to grow and sometimes growth is a little uncomfortable.” - Shabadrang

New age medicine treats symptoms and doesn’t treat the root cause. When you focus on the root causes the greater symptoms lesson. There are three root causes of all disease, one is the environment, second is the digestion processes, and the third is the our mental health. From our earlier discussion there is one main root cause and that is related to digestion and the food type/combination of foods, and the other lesser is mental/emotional.
