About

When I was diagnosed with severe osteoporosis at the age of 52, the nurse practioner urged me to take Fosamax. She said I was in danger of fractures at any moment. Shaken, I went home and researched the benefits and side effects of Fosamax, and I refused the treatment. Instead, I opted to see a naturopathic physician, Dr. Steven D’Antonio.

Using computer (LSA) technology, he pinpointed nutritional deficits and prescribed supplements that improved my physical health and emotional outlook. I felt better and slept better than before. However, my next yearly Dexascan revealed that my osteoporosis had worsened. Desolate and desperate, I prepared to leave my position as a middle school math teacher and decided, against my better judgment, to take Fosamax. It was then that a colleague of mine at school told me about Dr. Robert Rogers, an M.D. in Longwood, who had literally saved his life. My first appointment with Dr. Rogers was in April 2007, and what I have learned from Dr. Rogers has set my life in a new direction!

Continuing to work with both Dr. D’Antonio and Dr. Rogers, I have lost 30 pounds in the last 5 months, and I now weigh 112 (down from 142). I feel wonderful, peaceful, healthy, and strong. I want to share with you what I have learned so that you, too, may enjoy good health and live in peace! I’ll be including menus, recipes, medical information, and inspirational reflections to keep us all looking up. If you have questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to let me know.

God bless you, Kathy
