I've been Yelped!
"Dr. Cory is the first doctor I've been to that wanted to know the whole
picture, not just quickly treat symptoms. She is thorough, methodical
and extremely caring in information gathering and treatment.
I
started to see her for allergies, eczema, and nutritional issues, but
also spent two weeks in a private detox. At the end of the two weeks,
my skin was clear, my body felt like I had shed a layer, I had less
headaches and was sleeping a lot better. For the first time in 16
years, I've also been able to eliminate my daily allergy medication.
Dr. Cory provided me personal guidance along the way and tailored the
plan to meet my specific needs. I still have a long way to go on my
health journey, but I know Dr. Cory is the right guide for me."

Ask Dr Cory!
Dear Dr Cory:
What is the vitamin that is responsible for making your pee turn really yellow?
J., Los Angeles, CA
|
Dear J,
Thank you for your question. Ribolflavin, or Vitamin B2 is the vitamin responsible for the lovely chartreuse color urine after taking multi-vitamins or eating high B-vitamin containing foods, like nutritional yeast.
B-vitamins are water soluble, so whatever your body doesn't absorb gets eliminated in the urine. Riboflavin is important in energy production, supporting detoxification pathways, preventing
migraines, cataracts and anemia.
In health,
Dr C

From my Good Healthy Fun Blog...
Forward Bends+Lungs=Good!
The other day in yoga, as I was in a standing forward bend, my friend and teacher extra-ordinnaire Scott Blossom mentioned this position was great for clearing out the lungs and helping them recover from winter infections. I could feel it as I took a few deep breathes, expanding my lungs and mid-back. |

 As we Shamanic Cheerleaders say, "If you want to be enlightened than you've got to lighten up!". And spring is the ultimate season the season to lighten up.
In cultures and traditions across the globe, this is the time of year where people fast and alter their eating habits and rituals-Lent, Ramadhan, Passover to name a few. In Ayurveda it is highly recommended to eat more lightly for 10 days. This helps to transition from the "kaphic" time of year to the more pitta time. Essentially helping to melt the accumulated winter mucous. Like the snows. This process helps to explain the increase runny noses and allergy symptoms this time of year.
So alas it is Spring cleansing time, and below you will find several different options to suit your health needs - whether you want to participate locally in a 2-week Essential Cleanse program, participate from afar in a virtual cleanse, have a customized private cleanse or simply clean up your diet and add a product or two to your daily regimen.
Lastly, it is my goal to empower you with tools to preserve your
health for a lifetime. Call it Health Assurance. And while the economy remains uncertain, the necessity of good health is a constant. So, in an effort to support the needs of my clients and friends, and continue to support great health for all, I have lowered the rates on group classes, and created an option to host a cleanse and take the class for free!
Remember, healthcare reform starts with you, but you gotta know what to do!
In health!

Reflections
When so many of us have been
either directly or indirectly effected by the downturn in the economy,
it is easy to fall into the place of fear and scarcity. Here are a few things that help me to stay positive and hopeful during this time.
Did you know that more millionaires were
created during the Great Depression that at any other time?
That gives the ol' one-two punch to all those economic doomsayers. It is a time of being bold, taking risks and dreaming big, because there is nothing to lose!
"Right-sizing" rather than "Down-sizing"
I really liked this concept. Of we humans becoming more in alignment with nature, and what our true needs are. Becoming much more humble. Becoming much more human. Because ultimately as we "right-size", we decrease our need for stuff and increase our need for human connection and cooperation. For community.
So on that note I leave you with another Shamanic Cheer:
We is the new me
Catalyze community
Us is the new them
Look around and make a new friend- Hey!
As always, please let me know your thoughts- what you'd like to see more of, less of, suggestions, comments, words of wisdom.
Many Blessings,
Dr Cory
