5) Health Care Contacts, outside of Miami:
Lino Stanchich, Macrobiotic Counselor/Lic Nutritionist: email me for current number.
Regarding Medical Doctors: the medical doctor who mentored me for my first nine months, unfortunately has moved to the Chicago area. I am happy for Chicagoans in that he is still in practice there. If you live in the Chicago area, e-mail me for his name and number.
Dr. Bernie Seigel, M.D.’s name is listed in my Recommended Reading list. He has visualization tapes for every kind of stress related to illness, i.e. -- surgery, chemotherapy, and wellness. Don’t hesitate to give his books and tapes as gifts to your cancer patient friends. They are excellent and the place that I started, along with Deepak Chopra, M.D., the Endocrinologist known for his wonderful style of teaching laypeople.
Currently, there are some allopathic doctors who are now practicing what they call, “integrative,” medicine. Having recognized that many people have turned to alternatives with good results, these doctors are using the formerly labeled “alternative, or complementary medicines,” in conjunction with the conventional practices. Medical doctors Andrew Weil, and Julian Whitaker, listening to their own inner voices, are two M.D.’s who are leaders in this movement for integrative medicine. Both have written books that will guide you on your way to natural or wholistic healing for even mundane illnesses. If you have cancer and desire to investigate a natural path for your own healing, talk with your doctor and ask him/her to please enlighten you about all of your options, including the “complementary alternatives.” If your doctor cannot do this, you might write to Life Extension for a list of wholistic practitioners. You will find the address in the “Recommended Reading” section on page three.
The Kushi Institute of Becket, MA offers one-week seminars called “The Way to Health.” This picturesque center, nestled in the Berkshire Mountains was formerly a Franciscan Monastery. I spent one week there, July 1993, fine-tuning my new lifestyle. The lectures, staff, food and accommodations were excellent. I wished I could have stayed longer. For current information call: (413) 623-2101
ESSAIC FORMULA from the Objiwe Tribe of Canada is a blood cleanser. I used it in conjunction with my macrobiotic diet to melt down my tumor, prior to surgery.

Please be aware that none of the remedies/modalities mentioned herein are expected to cure disease of an in themselves. They have been found to be useful by myself and others to enhance my health through strengthening my immune system. In the event of serious illness you must seek the advice of a qualified physician, licensed in the state he/she practices.
When I became a “vegan” eater, I came closer to the earth, and found myself more intuitively attuned to the Spirit of God within me. May you find your own enlightenment by your inner guide and “Higher Power.”
Respectfully yours,
