Cal Orey, once pigeon-holed as a "health and pets magazine journalist," spread her wings in 2004. A native Californian, this sensitive animal lover wrote the book, The Man Who Predicts Earthquakes. The author knew her late pets sensed the Oct. 17, 1989 World Series Quake, a 7.1 monster but through her research for the book, she has discovered that she, too, can sense imminent shakers. These days, her best selling books are The Healing Powers of Vinegar, Revised and Updated and The Healing Powers of Olive Oil: Nature's Liquid Gold based on the health-boosting Mediterranean diet and lifestyle. She is an internationally recognized health and science author-intuitive who often predicts Earth changes.

Her reader-friendly vinegar and olive oil books have sold more than two hundred fifty thousand copies, have been translated into 15 languages, and purchased by the One Spirit Book Club. As a health-conscious baby boomer and psychic intuitive who predicts temblors to economic shakeups, Orey has appeared on Coast to Coast, KSFO, What's Cookin?, msnbc.com, and other national radio programs, magazines, and newspapers. She also is the co-founder of earthquakeepi-center, a popular and progressive disaster preparedness web site.
