About Wellness Plus
Our mission is to empower individuals to take control of their health, with emphasis on prevention, by providing up-to-date information and support – from whole food nutrition to holistic healings.
We believe in whole food. As Hippocrates stated, “food should be your medicine and the medicine should be food, and to be a medicine, first, it has to do no harm.”
Wellness Plus is 100% supported by member’s dues and by their purchases in our “Store of Mother Earth.” We have not, do not and will not accept any donations from drug or food manufacturers even though we operate on a not-for-profit basis. Therefore, you can trust the information we provide because we are a totally independent organization.
For individuals and families, we provide weekly classes, seminars, workshops and cooking demonstrations. We also provide various holistic healings (see member’s benefit list) at discount prices. We have personal and group training programs in our center, as well as house call services. We also carry unusual and hard to find natural foods and supplies in our store.
For natural healing practitioners, we have referral services, free corporate health fair booths to promote your business, treatment room rent starting at $200/month for one day per week, matching funds for advertising and more. Ask about our “Partner in Health” program.

The digestive tract is instrumental to making sure that food, including all nutrients we consume, reach the body where they are needed in a timely fashion. This workshop will explore the way the system is designed for optimal function. We will pay special attention to all the ways the digestive system can be harmed or helped by eating habits and other lifestyle choices. As this is an extensive topic, the workshop will be divided into two parts. We will start the part of the system that represents the first contact with food. Part of our exploration will pay attention to achieving and maintaining the proper microbiome in all parts of the digestive system.

In this talk, I will share eleven biohacking tips for better health, explain how they work, and provide practical ways to use them. You will also get a handout to try these tips at home.

“Green tea compounds block key enzyme that allows coronavirus to replicate“
A study published in the journal Frontiers in Plant Science shows that chemical compounds in green tea and other plant-based foods can block the activity of a key enzyme in the replication of SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19.
Wondrous Benefits of Green Tea
Unlike most antiviral drugs, green tea appears to work by boosting the immune system to combat diseases such as genital warts (caused by HPV) and the flu (caused by the influenza virus).
