Donnie Yance: Why Microdosing is More Effective Than Macrodosing

Description

Is microdosing <em>more effective</em> than macrodosing? <br /><br />While heavy-handed megadoses of synthetic pharmaceuticals attempt to dominate a single biochemical pathway, <strong>microdoses of synergistic botanticals</strong> can stimulate the body to <strong>normalize</strong>, <strong>balance</strong> and <strong>heal itself</strong>.<br /><br />Meanwhile, much of modern medicine has devolved into a <strong>game of manipulating numbers on blood tests</strong> rather than actually healing you. <br /><br />Because they're not so easily patented and monetized, many of the most effective, affordable and simple substances and practices in health and longevity are dismissed, ignored, or at the very least taken for granted. <br /><br />For instance, did you know that the simple act of <strong>prayer</strong> has been scientifically proven to not only<strong> improve mental health</strong>, but also improve the literal physical <strong>health of the heart</strong>?<br /><br />Deep breathing, gratitude, meditation, and prayer steady the vagus nerve and allow our bodies to remain flexible and adaptable, downregulating our nervous system from fight-or-flight into a relaxed parasympathetic state. <br /><br />The truth is, we don't need to wait for the next miracle pill to save us. <strong>We already know more than enough to put life-saving practices into action today</strong>. <br /><br /><strong>Donnie Yance</strong> is a Clinical Master Herbalist, Certified Nutritionist and Author, known internationally for his pioneering work in botanical and nutritional medicine, particularly in the field of integrative cancer.
