Inside-Out Body Rejuvenation Program

I’ve got a FREE, very special gift to share with you. It’s an invitation to a Webinar I will be giving on my 7 week Inside-Out Body Rejuvenation Program.

You would never believe it now but for a long time I suffered with chronic infections and poor digestion.

It took me 25 years to learn how to take care of my body using a natural approach and I want to share it with you.I have put together this program for you to heal yourself from fatigue, bloating, sugar cravings, and mood swings, so you can feel lighter, brighter, healthier and happier.

In the webinar I will be discussing how to unleash the healing power of your body to reverse disease, fight fatigue, repair your digestion and cleanse it safely from the inside out.

I don’t believe it’s any accident that you’ve found this page. It’s time for YOU to be empowered. Let the health self-help journey begin by signing up below.

Featured Article Of The Week

Anti-Aging Medicine, The Look and Feel Good Medicine of the Future

This is my latest contribution to Nutricula Magazine. The article covers the many questions I get from women daily about reversing the aging process to remain beautiful and slender with vibrant health through the decades. Using natural medicine to combat the aging process is the way to go. My patients who receive the benefits absolutely love it, as does any woman who gives natural medicine a try. Seriously, Natural Integrative Medicine works. It has changed my life and the lives of the women I share it with. Feeding your body exactly what it needs from the inside out is amazing and life changing.
Success Stories From My Clients

Jessica Morrison"I've been working with Doctor Purcell for five years on my health issues. She has helped me with my hormonal imbalance, weight loss and detoxification. I have experienced dramatic results in all of these areas, and therefore trust and rely on her with all my health concerns.

On the topic of detoxification I was slightly overwhelmed at first. The thought of having to cleanse from so many different toxins was exciting, however the reality of having to cut out so much from my daily diet was a tough thing to wrap my head around, I figured it was only twenty one days so why not give it a try.

I used the month of January as my start date thinking it would be a great time to rejuvenate my body and mind with hopes of going into the new year with a fresh start.

The program was well organized and clearly laid out for me making it easy to gather food and supplies needed for the cleanse. In fact I looked forward to each days planning guide and diet diary. Giving up coffee and sugary foods was the hardest for me and I had a caffeine withdrawal headache for the first three days.

It was uncomfortable but it passed, and only made me realize how bad it must be for my body as I had been drinking up to five cups daily for years. The foods, soup and protein drinks were very tasty and you could eat as much as you wanted.

After completing the cleanse I no longer craved sugary foods and caffeine. My skin was clear and bright my energy level was boosted. I did loose eleven pounds although this was not the intention. I had a overall feeling of clarity in my body and mind. I felt recharged and ready to continue a healthier lifestyle going forward.

I do this detoxification twice a year and would recommend this to anyone looking to improve their health."

Recipe Of The Week
 

Video Series: "Healthy Apple Crisp"

EVERYBODY loves my gluten-free, sugar-free, and dairy-free apple crisp!

Live Fit Kitchen recently showcased my recipe for Anti-oxidant Cranberry Sauce and the response was so positive that Alysia Gadson asked me to return to share another treat with her viewers!

 
 

I have the most wonderful recipe for Apple Crisp that is 100% healthy and delicious! There's no refined sugar, no gluten, no soy and no dairy.

The main ingredient is Apples, nature's fast food. Apples are super juicy, good for you and delicious in a dessert. The secret is in the crumble topping, made with coconut oil and almond flour. Almonds are high in protein and healthy fats. Do not be scared of the fat, the fact is, not all fats are created equal. You need a balance of good fat in your diet to feed your brain.

Here's a little secret, it's not a person's fat intake that causes weight gain, it's sugar. The healthy fats in coconut oil and almonds can actually help you feel more satisfied and reduce sugar cravings.

Watch the video then try the recipe for yourself. Not only is it delicious, your guests will never know it doesn't have butter and sugar.

I promise, you are going to love it!

My “Feed Your Cells” Cookbook!

This cookbook is a must have for every kitchen. It also makes a great gift for someone who wants to be healthy and needs help cooking.

Eating healthy can be so easy when you follow the simple recipes in my book. The recipes are gluten-free, sugar-free, and dairy optional.

I include little tips and tricks from the kitchen to make eating healthy delicious and effortless.

"I've always been health conscious, but not always a good health-observer. I'm a busy, single professional. I have a full work life and an active play life. I try to make healthy choices when eating, but often, convenience is king.

Ten weeks ago, Dr. Purcell presented her book, along with an eye-opening lecture. For me, she provided the missing ingredient: a you-can-do-it tutorial on how to integrate healthy cooking and eating in a time-efficient maintenance routine. The cookbook is not just a "how to" on the recipes. Feed Your Cells provided me with a "how to" on shifting my time and attention.

It turns out, taking time to prepare meals for myself does not take MORE time: it is a re-distribution of both time and money. I now prepare food in advance, and as a rule, I double the recipes and put half of what I make in the freezer right away. So now, when I really am low on time, I've already prepared healthy meals which I can defrost and take with me. I started with healthy breakfasts, freezing a month's worth of muffins at a time. When I start the day right, I tend to stay on track.

I used Feed Your Cells as a springboard to help me rededicate myself to maintaining my body as my home for the next 60 years (if I'm lucky!). I did not intend it as a weight-loss program, but my body is functioning so much more efficiently on a healthy whole foods diet, that I lost 15 pounds in 6 weeks, and my weight and tone are holding steady. I don't go to the gym. Just 10-15 minutes of yoga in the morning, and two or three nights spent dancing every week (same as before). Thank you, Dr. Purcell, for helping me get - and stay!-on track!"
