Dr. David Seaman was the first person to author a scientific paper that specifically hypothesized that diets can be pro-inflammatory or anti-inflammatory. Since that paper was published in 2002, thousands of papers and numerous books have been published on the topic of diet and inflammation, which is now accepted as mainstream.

Dr. Seaman is a Professor of Clinical Sciences in the Chiropractic Medicine program at National University of Health Sciences in Pinellas Park, Fl. He has a BS from Rutgers University in 1982; a Doctor of Chiropractic from New York Chiropractic College in 1986; and a MS in Bio/nutrition from the University of Bridgeport in 1991

While in clinical practice in the late 1980’s, he became aware of the developing research that linked nutrition to the inflammatory process and noticed that appropriate dietary changes could significantly improve various musculoskeletal and visceral conditions. Based on this experience, he began to focus on nutritional approaches for inflammation/pain control and has followed the related scientific literature ever since. This led to the publication of the first book on nutrition for pain and inflammation, which was followed by many articles and book chapters devoted to this topic. His educational efforts resulted in being awarded the 2006 Academician of the Year by the American Chiropractic Association.

Susanna Utbult is a Feng Shui from Sweden. She has studied and practiced Feng Shui since 1998.

As a feng shui expert,she owns and runs the Nordic School for Feng Shui and has taught several hundred students. Since Susanna took over the school in 2010 she has grown to love teaching and helping people to create better homes and better lives. Susanna also design houses for clients who are in the process of building there own home and they just want to get it right (this time).

After being a Feng Shui expert for many years I have realized the home is just one side of the coin for creating a better life. The other side of the coin is YOU, the customer. It really doesn´t matter if you have a great home according to Feng Shui, if you are in a confused and in a mess internally. You just need to do the work to get the whole coin to shine the way you deserve. This is your birthright. 

Susanna has developed a way to mix Feng Shui with the teachings of Bob Proctor, from Canada. The decluttering of body/mind/spirit is uplifting and brings Light and balance into your home.
