When Cathey Painter's husband was diagnosed with Stage 3 prostate cancer, she relentlessly researched and pursued natural cures and protocols while waiting for an appointment with a surgeon. After her husband started to feel better, they decided to go the natural route and a year-and-half later, not only was he completely free of cancer, but he looked younger and felt phenomenal. That's when Cathey realized that these natural healing protocols were also extremely anti-aging. Her friends and family began asking her for health advice, which motivated her to become a Certified Naturopath and now health and beauty are her mission in life. http://www.theagelessbeautyreport.com/ http://issels.com
