FROM OUR FOUNDER – REED DAVIS

FROM OUR FOUNDER – REED DAVIS

Over 20 years ago, I recognized clients were caught in a “cycle of trial and error” and I committed to being the last person they needed to see.  While working with top leaders in alternative medicine, I ran thousands of labs on thousands of people and learned to identify “healing opportunities.”  Using all-natural, drug-free protocols I made my own observations about who got better and who didn’t, codifying which “general principles of health building” would outperform “specific treatments” being provided by standard and even alternative medicine.

And through this work I then developed the Functional Diagnostic Nutrition®️ Certification Course and D.R.E.S.S. for Health Success®️ Protocol to educate and empower as many people as possible to get well and stay well naturally, so they, in turn, may empower others to do the same.

Episode 312: Can SEVERE Acne Be Solved Naturally? w/ Detective Ev

Severe Acne: Summary Detective Ev shares his personal journey with severe acne and the natural methods that helped him overcome it. He begins with recounting early health symptoms and dismissals by healthcare professionals, leading to a skepticism of conventional treatments for acne including Accutane. The turning point was a decision to explore natural remedies and changes in lifestyle, particularly in natural light exposure, diet, and skincare routines. This exploration was motivated by the realization that severe acne is not a condition that one simply has to live with, but rather something that can be resolved by addressing underlying health issues. Evan delves into the scientific and personal findings that led to improvement in his skin condition. This includes stopping the use of harsh cleansers, transitioning to an organic diet, and identifying food sensitivities through lab testing. A significant portion of the discussion focuses on how gut health, through factors like
