Why I Created Coastherbal.com

At a very early age, I knew that I was destined to work in a lab and help discover cures for our many diseases. I was raised totally medical, and believed that the solution to all of our problems would come from our pharmaceuticals.

At age 18, my father died of cancer. This made me even more determined, although I did have my first evidence that the system had a problem. While watching my father die, the doctor announced that he was going to use a new experimental chemotherapy drug on him. I asked the doctor if he thought this might help. His answer shocked and disgusted me, as he told a desperate 18 year old boy, "no, it won't help, it is just to give the family hope'!

In college I worked in a lab for 2 years and learned the economic incentives of making drugs. I saw many of my fellow students strive to get into medical school, and learned that far too many chose this path solely because of its extreme profit potential.

My senior year, with forms already filled out to enter a PhD program; I took the Silva method course on mind development. There I learned how powerful the mind is, and how much our attitude can affect our health. I shared this with my lab partners, and was asked to leave and never come back! The thought that anything besides drugs could affect people was far beyond their current belief systems.

For years I worked various jobs, but continued to study the mind as well as nutrition. It wasn't until after I began having children did I fully realize that it was my responsibility to keep me and my family healthy. With the 'Standard American Diet' (SAD), and a series of ear infections and doctors visits, I knew that there had to be a better way.

I attended the School of Natural Healing, founded by the famous Dr. John Christopher and now run by his son, David Christopher. In 1992, after completing the master's course, I went into natural healing full time. My children no longer got ear infections, my 15 years of chronic sinus/migraine headaches diminished, and my energy level sky rocketed. I learned that prevention is the key, that diet makes a major difference in our health, and supplements do offer significant benefits to our overall well being. I also learned that the pharmaceuticals are not always out for our best interest, that money, not curing disease, was the key motivating force, and mostly that disease is not a drug deficiency!

Now, after working with over 12,000 individuals, ranging in age from 4 days to 97 years, with every condition imaginable, I want to share the best of what I found with you.
