About the Author

He is Chairman of the Scientific Advisory Board and a Professor for the Academy of Comprehensive Integrative Medicine Dr. Cowden has pioneered successful treatments for a myriad of diseases, including chronic fatigue syndrome, cancer, autism, fibromyalgia, heart disease, Lyme disease, and others. In addition to treating thousands of patients, Dr. Cowden travels and teaches integrative medicine nationally and internationally in countries such as Mexico, Brazil, Peru, Guatemala, Germany, the Czech Republic, Japan, China, Taiwan, England, the Netherlands, Austria, Australia, Norway, Curaçao, the Dominican Republic, Singapore and Malaysia.

Although Dr. Cowden was initially trained in traditional, allopathic medicine, early on in his career he realized that this type of medicine often not only didn t get his patients well, but frequently failed to bring them to a place of wholeness so that their illnesses wouldn t recur. So he quickly expanded his knowledge, experience and medical practice to include natural, non-toxic, holistic solutions for wellness. More than a holistic physician, however, Dr. Cowden is also a sensitive educator who teaches his patients lifestyle, emotional and spiritual strategies for living well so that they can go beyond wellness to wholeness in body, mind and spirit. More information about Dr. Cowden and his work can be found on the Academy of Comprehensive Integrative Medicine website: ACIMConnect.com. ******************** Connie Strasheim is a medical researcher and writer who has experienced the hardships of chronic illness firsthand through her near decade-long battle with Lyme disease and chronic fatigue syndrome.
