As a mother of two boys, I'm very passionate about kid's health, nutrition, parenting and healthy living. When Chinese medicine integrated with modern medicine and used appropriately, it can keep kids healthier than ever. This is so important today in US, because children face many more health issues than ever such as allergies, asthma, eczema, obesity and autism! I am also focused on treating Lyme disease. My entire family love sports, so I am passionate about knowing sports and nutrition, preventing and treating sports injuries.
