He will be featured as the expert in diet and dietary supplements in multiple publications and books in 2013. He has been asked to provide advice and expert opinion for multiple diverse organizations from corporations, government regulatory agencies, pharmaceutical and nutrition based companies. In fact, Abbott Labs currently uses his materials to teach health care professionals and the public about diet and dietary supplements.

Mark was the former course director or co-director for the annual AUA (American Urological Society), ASCO (American Society of Clinical Oncology) and SUNA (Society of Urologic Nurses Association) class on Complementary and Alternative Medicine.

For the past 15 years, Dr. Moyad has also volunteered weekly for national and local patient advocacy groups and low-income/free clinics in need of help.

He is also the annual co-moderator of arguably the largest men’s health/prostate cancer patient conference in the world, which is held every year in Los Angeles, CA (PCRI conference). He also helped for years after Hurricane Katrina and worked with the Lower Ninth Ward Health Clinic in New Orleans to provide anything and everything from books for children in the waiting room, medical supplies and regular fundraising for the clinic itself. Currently, he is helping to improve medical services in Haiti and assisting with bringing kids to the U.S. in need of more serious medical treatment. Dr. Moyad is also one of the creators and now the co-chair of the EAPPCa (Early Access Program for Prostate Cancer) committee, whose primary purpose is to negotiate and facilitate the delivery of ground breaking successful phase 3 medications to individuals with the most advanced forms of cancer while these medicines are in the 6-12 month window waiting for FDA approval. For example, the drug MDV-3100 was just approved in May of 2012 to be available for Early Access and the company announced their work and partnership with Dr Moyad and his committee on a global press release, which represents one of the first times that a volunteer patient advocacy groups was able to help provide a pathway for free groundbreaking medications to get in the hands of some of the most desperate cancer patients.

In 2013 Dr Moyad will become part of the Promoting Wellness foundation whose primary purpose is to improve access and the health and well being of indigent patients around the world. Dr Moyad also loves water sports, movies, sushi, and his family, but of course not in that specific order.

Guest Occupation: Light Worker, Healer, Reiki Practitioner
Guest Biography:

Like many light workers, Stephanie Lodge didn’t find the light, the light found her. For the past twenty years, Stephanie has spent hundreds of hours researching spiritual methodologies, healing modalities, ancient mythologies and truth movements in order to acquire enough knowledge to understand the real purpose of life.  It wasn’t until she stopped searching, however, that the truth finally came streaming in with little effort. Over time, the information she received in “channel” would be validated in different ways, giving her the confidence she needed to guide others with the knowledge she received.  Not only were her channeling sessions informative, but soon she was guided to do a new method of healing that combined several rays (or streams) of light specific to balancing the planetary “shift” of human consciousness.

She calls these rays “angelic” because the term “angel” comes from the word “angle,” which is an important aspect of light – its geometry. Angels are simply concentrated beings of light, like mobile stars or starlight if you will, that can stream their divine consciousness into a human mind in channel. Through this mind the “angelic light stream” flows, providing light as knowledge, healing frequency, sound vibration or any other form it chooses to create.  It is a power and a privilege that Stephanie feels honored and humbled by.  She’d like to say that there was some “miracle” or specific event that was the precursor to her suddenly being able to channel in angelic wisdom, but truthfully it was simply her intention and desire that connected her to the light and its emissaries.

Today, she uses her connection to the “stream” to provide healing and guidance to individuals and groups, with often profound effects. As founder of Angelic Light Stream, Stephanie is constantly revising the ALS programs as new information emerges, currently completing the Halonetix System for Ascension and perfecting Conscious Light Training techniques that allows others to begin their own journey into streaming directly from Source.  She is also working on a series of young adult novels to help the next generation of light workers begin their own journey into enlightenment.  On a practical side, she’s a certified Reiki I Practitioner, and is currently exploring other certifications, like Integrative Energy Therapy and Quantum Transcendence to learn additional techniques to enhance her existing intuitive methods.
