Q. Hi, Cynthia. I do enjoy reading your blog. I found your article about the  raw cacao very informative. I was diagnosed with rosacea just about 20 years ago, and have struggled with it since–too long of a story to tell. Anyway, my face was getting really bad about 4 months or so ago. Most [...]

Q. Hi Cynthia! I have a problem digesting vegetables because immediately afterwards I get a horrible stomach ache. It is in the top area of the tummy, above the belly button.

Cynthia, I am in the process of helping my wife hopefully achieve some sort of meaningful life. We have dealt with Candida for nearly 3 decades. Many of the books you recommend she has read and tried many of the diets etc. Unfortunately mainly because of my lack of commitment we typically would initially see [...]
