Hi R.,
Read this, I use some of her products in my work as a cosmotologist and CMT...her story is amazing to me, I am going to order her book for my girlfriend who has fibromyalgia....the web site is www.mlis.com
Linda T. Nelson is a Doctor of Naturopathy with a Ph.D. in Preventive Health Therapies. She is a guest professor at the Brigham Young University School of Nursing, and has taught classes in preventive health all over the United States and in many countries throughout the world. Linda is the published author of the book Living Symptom Free: Fibromyalgia & Candida. She is an innovative business leader that has devoted much of her life to improving the health and appearance of individuals through a company that values natural, chemical-free treatments and education to promote rejuvenation and an improved quality of life.
Dr. Nelson's passion for preventive health took root when she was 37 and had developed pain and illness that were controlling her life. Her mother was a Registered Nurse, and as a child living with unlimited access to antibiotics at a time when the dangers of long-term use were not known, was given penicillin for every health problem. Over time, she developed depression, the inability to gain weight, insomnia, and life-threatening allergic reactions to many foods and plants. She had muscles removed in her hip to control muscle clicks and pain, and had her jaw broken and wired shut for six weeks as treatment for TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction). Antihistamines, sleeping pills, steroids, and pain medication were a part of life, and while they controlled immediate symptoms, long-term health problems were compounded.
It was at this point that Linda was introduced to body cleansing through detoxification by a Holistic Doctor in California. Growing up in a conventional medical household, she felt at the time that holistic therapies were bizarre, but was desperate enough to be willing to try anything. She began the detoxification program and felt her life returning within two weeks. Amazed, she focused her energies on education in how the body works, what our organs are meant to do, and how to allow the body to rejuvenate. Because her life was so dramatically changed, she was hooked and had to find out more. She changed her career, returning to school to receive bachelors, masters and Ph.D. degrees in Preventive Health Therapies. She became a Doctor of Naturopathy. Through her education, she determined that what she had been experiencing for many years was fibromyalgia, a medical term that described her health history. After learning how to become symptom free through holistic methods, she placed an emphasis on helping other sufferers of this same syndrome. She developed a natural lifestyle change program and wrote a book that has helped hundreds of women overcome the debilitating effects of fibromyalgia.
While gaining this advanced education, Dr. Nelson purchased quality formulas for the detoxification process that she had experienced, along with a small natural product line that improved health and appearance. She had the desire to create a company that could help others learn the benefits of holistic health and beauty treatments. Over time, this product line has been added to with the help of researchers and biochemists to create The M'lis Company, a supplier of superior nutritional and body products. Dr. Nelson currently resides in Salt Lake City, where she continues her quest to help others achieve health and well-being through education and holistic methods.
I hope this helps,
T.
