Interesting Research
We are constantly researching new approaches to health and wellness. Here are a few of the studies that we have either been involved with or find interesting that we would like to pass on to you.
The Cochrane Group
We have found the Cochrane Group to provide a wealth of unbiased, strictly scientific reviews of the available research. Their work is not paid for by big pharma. During the past 20 years, Cochrane has worked to transform the way health decisions are made by gathering and summarizing the best evidence from research to help you make informed choices about treatment.
