Fish Eggs….For Fertility….Worth the Eat!

Did you know Caviar is excellent for Fertility, afterall these are eggs and nutrient dense! Creme Fraiche is also full of good bacteria for your gut flora. Keeping the gut healthy is central to all other systems in the body.


With nothing else to eat in my fridge, I broke down and indulged in my birthday gift finally, after close to a month. I must say I have never tasted creme fraiche but it made this exsquisite Almas Caviar Hackleback a delight on a nongluten cracker. Can I expose that I ate all of the caviar? Hey you never know, these fish eggs might help me conceive again! A big Thank you to the special couple who gave them to me. May God help their dream come true! Amen.

"Depression a Disease or a Symptom of Inflammation?"

The Chemical Myth of Depression and other mental health conditions…..and Big Pharma and a new look at the effects of inflamation. Leave it to Chris to do the research. The most recent research supports a new theory called the "Immune Cytokine Model of Depression" holding that it is a "multifaceted sign of chronic immune system activation" and not a disease itself.   Immune factors and inflamation are also related to Fertility Issues, many of you know, who suffer from one of the 4 categories of Antiphospholipid Antibodies such as Natural Kller Cells and MTHFR factor.

Healthy and Happy Baby!

Hi Carolyn! We wanted to share the good news! Noah Graham arrived today 7/22/14, weighing 7lbs, 15 oz, 21.5 inches long. Healthy and happy!

Thank you for everything!!!!

This baby's Mom had acupuncture for a couple months prior to his conception and continued throughout her first trimester.  I cannot wait to meet him!  

Excellent Ultrasound and Good Heartbeat of Fetus at 12 weeks. A Big Stepping Stone to Cross.

A sigh of relief at 12 weeks with a good Ultrasound and Heartbeat to confirm.  Getting through this first trimester is a big hurdle to cross for couples.  Miscarriage from this point on is less likely to occur.  

Always a delight to have my patients share their story.  Thank you!  

My fertility story: After a blighted ovum miscarriage, I went through a year of fertility treatments including Clomid and multiple IUIs - and nothing was working - I was not even able to ovulate on my own. I decided to try something different, and that is when I found Carolyn Huffman. She was so kind from the very beginning and the acupuncture and herbs helped to balance my body from any adverse effects of the fertility drugs. She mentioned they also could have helped while I was taking the fertility treatments if I had chosen to continue that course. What impressed me the most is how much she cared, and how she made me feel like I wasn't broken - like there was hope for me to conceive. I started taking the recommended herbs, incorporating more of the Paleo diet, and going to see her every few days. I was able to ovulate on my own the very first month of acupunture. The very next month, I had a positive pregnancy test! I am now into my second trimester. I am so very thankful that I found Ms. Huffman. I would recommend her to anyone!
