I am very cold unless the temperature is over 80 degrees. I had somenutritional deficiencies a few years ago. The doctor says my thyroid isfine and all other test are fine. She said that your coldness could take along time to go away. The doctor said it’s a problem with the DNA in themitochondria of the nerve cells of the skin. After four years of anutritionally pretty good diet I’m still as cold as before. A month ago shestarted me on 100mg of CoQ10 once a day.

Hi – I have been in your store 2 times and have liked most of the productsthat I have tried. I went to a Reiki session this past Monday (11-9-09) and Lisa (Reikimaster) mentioned that when she was working on me that she was seeing a few(disturbing to me) things: that my muscles in my legs and jaw were pulling away from my bones, that I have a vitamin C deficiency (possibly scurvy). Well since than I have been trying to do some research on this. I can’tseem to figure out why this would be. I take an Emergen-C daily. I take vitamins, etc (I sat down this am and started a list of all the vit/supplements I take daily) I should be receiving plently of vit C. So my question is: where would this be going if it is not staying in my body? I try to eat fresh fruits, vegs, watch my diet and exercise. What would your suggestion(s)be? Should I make an appointment to come in to see you-to possibly do some testing to see if this is accurate and what I should bedoing to fix this? Please advise, asap. Thanks for your help.
