FAQ


Are vitamins, amino acids, minerals safe? 
Supplementing is not only safe,  but it is also very important for maintaining excellent health.  In today's  world, your lifestyle is full of stress and you don't always eat wholesome  meals.  Therefore, many of your food choices (like white flour products and  sugar) deplete your body of the vitamins, amino acids and minerals  (micronutrients).  In addition, research studies conducted over the past 35  years have shown that micronutrients taken in certain therapeutic dosages can  fight many illnesses.  In these cases, the supplements are used to help re-setup  correct chemical balances in the body and not just used to maintain wellness.   In many cases they are safer than than pharmaceutical drugs, which can have deadly side effects.

Can I stay on my current medication?

Yes.  In fact, Sherry definitely recommends that you not change your medications at  all initially, unless your personal physician recommends such a  change.

Will Sherry's approach allow me to get off  medication?
In many cases, people can reduce some or all of their  medications after two to six months (depends on the individual) of amino acids,  vitamins, minerals and herb therapy, if their response to this supplementation  has been excellent. Reducing or eliminating medication must be a decision you  make only with your doctor's advice.

Can I work with my current doctor  and still use this approach?
Yes, and that is what Sherry recommends.  Sherry will be happy to consult with your personal physician.

How soon  before I see results?
You don't have to wait weeks or months to see  changes in your body. Many people report that within 24 hours after taking the  nutrients, their moods lift and their cravings, depression, lack of energy,  sleeplessness, etc. disappear. In many cases, positive responses to the nutrient  supplements have taken place within minutes, right in front of Sherry during  their consultation. However, because of the factors mentioned below, some other  people might begin to feel positive changes within a few days to 2 weeks. There  is no standard response time to amino acids, vitamins, minerals and herb therapy.

Factors Influencing Response Time:
Positive responses to amino acids, vitamins, minerals and  herb therapy can be delayed for several reasons:

1.  Depends on what  vitamins, minerals, herbs, amino acids the individual has been taking, how  depleted one's system is and how willing/motivated the individual is to do  whatever is possible to improve his/her health.

2. The individual has  health problems that are interfering with absorption  of amino acids, vitamins  or herbs.  Candidiasis is one such condition which will slow down the response  time, and is a condition that must be treated before the amino acids can do  their work properly.

3. An inadequate diet and/or lack of exercise will  slow down one's response to amino acids, vitamins, minerals and herbs  supplementation.

4. Response time is much slower if one has structural  problems, such as: heart attack with permanently damaged heart tissue, stroke or  Alzheimer's Disease with damaged brain tissue, diabetes that has progressed to  the point where one requires insulin. These chronic, structural problems may  require more time (results vary with each individual) before the positive  effects of amino acids, vitamins, minerals and herb supplementation are  felt.

How Long is the Course of Supplementation?
Usually, there  is significant improvement anywhere from six weeks to six months depending on  the improved symptoms of the individual and the factors mentioned below.  At  that time, the dosage and number of supplements are  reduced. Most people can  reduce their supplementation program after a couple of months and may be able to  completely discontinue the program in less than one year...if all of the factors  that follow are addressed completely.

Factors  Determining the Time Required and Effectiveness of Amino Acids, Vitamins,  Minerals and Herb Supplementation:
1. Diet. If one carefully  follows dietary recommendations that accompany the supplementation program, one  can reduce and
discontinue them more quickly.

2. Exercise. The same  principle holds as for diet.

3. Coping with stress. Sherry's program  components involve identifying your unique circumstances and prolonged stress  has disrupted your ability to fight infection and disease as well as inhibit  recovery from injury and illness. You will learn to recognize the visible and  non-visible stressors which are causing your stress as well as various stress  management and assertiveness training techniques to help you overcome the  stressors. 

4. The longer you've been sick, the longer you will need to  take supplements.

5. Sherry's program components include resolving any unresolved grief. This is different from stress and is caused by emotional 
losses from your past and present situations....which may reflect problematic relationships, loneliness, unforgiveness, resentments,   anger, work pressures, financial worries, etc. Sherry pays special attention to the mind-body connection, and the power of the mind to affect the body for better or for worse. Your commitment to honestly evaluate these issues in your life and to courageously tackle them with the aim of working through them will impact your speed of recovery from physical problems.

6. Structural problems such as heart attack or stroke will require a longer duration of treatment.
