Healers

This page is for:

  • Those looking for a Perfect Health Diet-friendly doctor, nutritionist, or alternative medical professional. All the healers listed on this page are familiar with the Perfect Health Diet and welcome the opportunity to care for Perfect Health Dieters. None of them have been vetted by us for skill or competence.
  • Healers who would like to be part of our natural healing community. Perfect Health Diet readers are likely to have different health problems than the general population, and most will be interested in integrating the dietary and lifestyle tactics for healing described in our book with the best of modern medicine. If you are familiar with Perfect Health Diet and would like to help our readers navigate their health journeys, please consider listing yourself on this page.
The Benefits of Assembling a Natural Healing Community

If, as we believe, the Perfect Health Diet is effective at preventing or healing many chronic diseases, including cardiovascular disease, obesity, and diabetes, then the health problems of Perfect Health Dieters will be quite different than the general population.

It will be scientifically and clinically important to understand what problems resolve on the Perfect Health Diet and what problems persist or present with altered symptoms.

It will be desirable for healers to be able to contact one another to share knowledge.

The Ancestral Health Society holds an annual Symposium and is forming a scholarly and clinical journal, the Journal of Evolution and Health. Paul and Shou-Ching are expected to serve on the Journal’s editorial board. Knowledge gained in clinical practice can be published in the Journal as case reports or other clinical reports. Such publications can help the ancestral health community better understand the best strategies for integrating ancestral lifeways with modern medicine, and can help prove the effectiveness of ancestral diet and lifestyle to a skeptical mainstream.

To be listed on this page, email Paul at pauljaminet@perfecthealthdiet.com.

For an alternative source of doctors sympathetic to ancestral diets and healing approaches, see Chris Armstrong’s Primal Docs. Doctors and other healers who would like to be listed at PrimalDocs, please click here.

  1. Hello:

    I live in Boston. Do you know any Doctors/naturopaths in the Boston area (preferably south shore or Cambridge) that could help me with the diet.

  2. I am a 51 year old white collar male (2x PHD Book buyer) that would really like to find a healer in the Denver area. I just read Allison’s story on the PHD home page as of 1/10/13, and I have some of the same history and symptoms.
    I recently lost my job because I give an impression of “tiredness” and “nervous anxiety”. I have a chronic foot fungal infection (so did my parents)and chronic mucous of the sinuses that drains into my throat. (I have had these conditions since childhood) I have tried every over the counter med and every prescription med that any local Doctor can think of. I was even told to go on Prozac even though I am not depressed.
    I have 3 beautiful young sons that need a Dad with more energy for life. I am beat down and I need help tackling my condition.
    I am open to working with a web and phone based healer as long as they are legit. Has anyone here worked with Chris Kresser? Any feedback on that at all would be appreciated.

    • Peter- Dr. Jeffrey Gerber in Littleton. Family Practice. He understands the Paleo template.

    • Peter,

      I have similar problems, have you found help with your sinuses?

      • Tate, I have noticed an improvement in my sinuses since I started the Iodoral tabs, and I am also eating 2 raw Brazil nuts when I take the Iodoral.

        I would have to say that my sinuses have improved by about 50% so far. I am hoping the longer I take the Iodoral, the less infected or less excess mucus I produce.

        • Why the brazil nuts? I am actually about 80% better after changing my diet to PHD, but haven’t tried the supplements yet. This is weird, but after I re-sided my house using smartside (which is a chemically treated pressboard product specifically designed to be anti-fungal) and breathed in a lot of the sawdust, I had chunks of very firm mucus about the size of my pinky come out of my nose when I was attempting to blow my nose. It was a huge relief and I went from fighting a sinus infection for about a year to where I am now. I don’t know if it was the sawdust or the PHD. I am not advocating snorting ground up house siding, it could have been being on the PHD had got me to that point and blowing my nose hard just removed the growth. I would just like to get the sinus completely fixed. How long did it take for the iodine to work?

          • Brazil nuts for the selenium in them and thus the iodine/selenium balance that is recommended at this site and in the book.

            I have found from extensive self testing that I don’t respond well to many supplements. That’s why I use the Brazil nuts.

          • Tate, it took me about a month before I started to notice a difference in my breathing. Lower dosage of Iodoral.

          • Peter,

            Ahhh! That makes sense, thank you.

          • Have either of you tried completely eliminating dairy? No butter either, but possibly ghee. This works for my husband who has had that same mucous problem since childhood.

          • My breathing issues have completely cleared up… it just took some time.

    • Peter, I used Dr. Mom, Deb Kitt. She is a theta healer and can read your energy over the phone. She is also a naturopath, and has worked in food research, so she has an amazing skillset. I used her to help my son and myself. We both had significant leaky gut. As a result of her work my son’s grades went up in school, and I notched up in overall health. You can find her on a google search. You don’t have to visit her to have an assessment or treatment. She can do all this on a phone consult. Best wishes, Susan

  3. I’m sure Chris Kresser would be great, but he’s not taking new clients right now.

    Sorry to hear about your struggles Peter.

  4. Is there anyone in the Northern NJ or NYC area that can help?

  5. Hi I really wish Canada would get with it. I would love to find a cardiologist in Ontario, Canada. Surely they ( cardiologists) are reading and seeing some results from patients who care about their health, who can read and follow Dr. Dayspring and Chris Masterjohn. I’m trying but I need a healer.

  6. Paul,
    Are you aware that Dr Cheiken promotes veganism ?

    http://www.c4oh.org/articles_free/caring.pdf

    Does anybody check these people out before they are listed?

    • Hi Ellen,

      No, I wasn’t aware of that. When doctors contact me about listing I ask them if they are familiar with PHD principles and are able to provide supportive care consistent with our advice. If they say yes then I list them. When I’m back home I’ll look into his case.

  7. Hi.
    I read a story on your work and your publication in Australia in the Woman’s Weekly recently. I’ve borrowed the book from the library but not read far enough yet to see if there is content tailored to local conditions e.g. re soil nutrients.

    Also hopeful that helpful practitioners in Oz may start to apply to be listed here.

    Best wishes

  8. Hi. Does anyone have a recommendation for a physician in FLORIDA, anywhere between TAMPA and SARASOTA?

  9. Honored and humbled to be on this list. I will wear this honorable mention with pride.

  10. Sure do wish this page would get more attention. Surely if the right people knew about it, they would add their names. I am in Tennessee, wishing I knew one or more doctors who understood PHD.

  11. Paul, I thought it was pretty much established in the scientific field that homeopathy is pseudoscience. You know, with lack of evidence of effectiveness in studies and the total lack of a viable biological mechanism. Even a simple Wikipedia search shows this pretty well. I admire you a lot, Paul, and find it very odd that you would support something like that in this site.

    • Wikipedia?! There’s your first mistake! It’s written by regular close-minded, know-it-alls like yourself…it’s the last place I’d go for health advice!! As a member of the medical community with an open mind & an understanding that modern medicine in this country frequently fails patients due to its rigidity & resistance to accept the obvious because it it isn’t written in outdated medical textbooks. Most of all, I think the scientific community hates to admit they may be wrong, & that there are things they don’t know or understand. Their immediate response to anything outside of the box: deny & attack.

  12. Hi! I”m a hoping to be mother, looking for both pre-natal and weight loss help from either a PHD doctor or nutrionist. I’m also in the market for a reputable holistic pyschiatrist. I’m in the Washington, DC area, however for the nutrionist – if there is a good one, who will work with me on the phone and online that works too.

    Thank you!

  13. Any other Dr. in Ny that can help? The only one listed only accepts a small group of insurance plans, and an out of pocket visit is too much.

  14. Chico Chiropractic Care offers the city’s premier chiropractic services and solutions. We assist in targeting your most painful injuries and finding long-term solutions that enable you to work and perform other daily activities with ease. We know that it can be challenging to find a rehabilitation method that works for your pain and injuries specifically, but our team of chiropractors has years of experience in delivering tailored results to each of our clients and their specific needs.

  15. Wow! I emailed Paul today, and lo and behold, there my listing is! So quick! Love these authors!

    Dr. Steve
