The 28-Day Cleansing Program

About Scott Ohlgren Scott Ohlgren is an enthusiastic student, teacher, beneficiary, and author of the natural healing paradigm. Raised in Wisconsin, where Spam and Velveeta cheese were considered part of the four Food Groups, his introduction to the diet-symptom, diet-health connection came just in time. At age 19, tired of acne, sinus problems and tetracycline, a friend shoved a book into his hands, saying, Change your diet, and those symptoms will go away. Five weeks later, these symptoms were gone. Since then, periodic cellular cleansing has been a central part of his life and is the main reason why he hasn't used a single antibiotic or prescription drug since 1976. He is a 1985 Kushi Institute graduate, a nine-month intensive live-and-study program on food sciences. He studied at the two-year Rolfing Institute and became certified as a Rolfing Practitioner in 1988. He has sold over 90,000 tapes, videos and books on the diet/disease, diet/health connection, and he has been featured in the Bay Area Monthly and Success Magazine. Scott's been the keynote speaker at the International Association of Colon Hydrotherapy annual meeting. He is board-certified by the American Association of Drugless Practitioners as a Holistic Health Practitioner, and is accredited by the Florida International University for CEU credits. Since 2001, his online 28-day Cleansing Program has taken over 12,000 participants through the same process that he learned 30 years ago.Scott has become an outspoken proponent, lecturer, and author for a drug, pain and disease-free life, using real food nutrition as one's main medicine cabinet. And he thinks America's health-care crisis is a bunch of hooey, the obvious outcome of a culture that has forgotten how to feed itself. He lives in Boulder, CO, with his wife, Gael.About Joann Tomasulo With roots steeped in the tradition of home-cooked meals, Joann Tomasulo has a passion for good food. At eleven years of age, her first job was in her Italian grandparents' food store in downtown Buffalo, New York, cleaning heads of lettuce and shining apples. When her mom went back to work, cooking became mandatory for all family members. In her twenties, Joann found herself prone to crabbiness and depression. After her fiancé handed her a book on cleansing and colon care, she realized that the cause of her ailments had been due to the gradual increase of processed foods in her diet. She incorporated more whole foods into her life and turned her health around. This shift in understanding the connection between food and health launched her passion for the art of healthy cooking.By combining her 25 years of knowledge of whole food nutrition with traditional down-home cooking, Joann has developed these healthy and delicious recipes for the 28-Day Cleanse.Even with her extremely busy schedule as a Marketing Manager of the local food cooperative, Joann still loves to spend time feeding her lucky friends and family nutritious, wholesome meals; many of which she shares with us in this book. Preparing meals continues to be a combination of creativity, health and practicality. She loves the challenge of sharing food with others that is unexpected, simple and delicious. She currently lives in Buffalo, New York, with her husband, Gary (still grateful for handing her that book), and son, Finn.

Scott Ohlgren is an enthusiastic author, teacher, and beneficiary of the "healing through natural foods" paradigm. Raised in Wisconsin, where Spam and Velveeta cheese were considered part of the four Food Groups, his introduction to the diet-symptom/diet-health connection came just in time. At age 19, tired of acne, sinus problems and tetracycline, a friend shoved a book into his hands, saying, Change your diet, and those symptoms will go away. Five weeks later, these symptoms were gone. From that point on, periodic internal cleansing has been a central part of his life, and is the main reason why he hasn't used a single antibiotic or prescription drug since 1976. He has since become an outspoken proponent, lecturer, and author for a drug-free, pain-free, and disease-free life, using real food nutrition as one's main medicine cabinet. Scott's books, videos and CDs on the diet/disease/diet/health connection have sold over 110,000 copies, and his writings have appeared in the Bay Area Monthly and Success Magazine. Scott has been a keynote speaker for the International Association of Colon Hydrotherapy, the Taste of Health cruise series, and many others. He is board-certified by the American Association of Drugless Practitioners as a Holistic Health Practitioner, and is accredited by the Florida International University for CEU credits. Each month, Scott's online 28-day Internal Cleansing Program at www.HowHealthWorks takes hundreds of participants through the same process that he learned 25 years ago. His latest book is, appropriately enough, The 28-Day Cleansing Program.
