I want to thank you for helping my daughter, Giana. She was diagnosed developmentally delayed. Originally because of seizures she was on a ketogenic diet and thanks to you she is now eating a natural food diet with nutritional supplements that we put in the smoothie you recommended – and she remains seizure-free without medications.

She also had gastric disturbances and was constipated and her bowels are now normal with no gastric discomfort.  She went from eating one ounce of food per meal to five ounces per meal in three months. Your food and supplement recommendations helped make a difference and get her back on track. You have the best soft food list I’ve even seen and your ideas for putting supplements in the food have been very successful, since Giana can’t swallow capsules or tablets. She is really growing and developing. Thank you.

BABY THRIVING and HEART HEALING

Our baby, Sarah, had a heart condition that required open heart surgery. She had difficulty gaining weight. So, we turned to our amazingly gifted holistic doctor, Dr. Laura Thompson, who recommended a raw milk formula with specific nutritional additions.

Almost immediately, Sarah was thriving and gaining weight so quickly that the cardiologists and pediatricians were amazed. Four months later, she has exceeded all expectations of her doctors and is, in fact, in the 90th percentile in her age group as far as height. Her weight is normal. We are so happy and relieved that our little girl is growing normally and is healthy and happy. The supplements that we use for her are easy to administer right in her raw milk formula.

SLEEP IMPROVED and ITCHY SKIN GONE
I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. I have just been giving my 2 year old son the nutritional supplements on the program that you recommended.  Within one week, he was sleeping through the night and within a week and half a completely stopped itching and has not had a skin problem (eczema) since.  You are an amazing woman with a heart of gold and I am so glad I had the chance to meet you!  I look forward to working with you for years to come!                                                       

OFF ADHD MEDICATION, BETTER CONCENTRATION and APPETITE

We started seeing Dr. Thompson in August of 1998. My daughter, Tiffany, had been on medication for ADD and her health was suffering. I wanted to try alternatives and was interested in improving the general health of our family. We started a program of a greens powder, probiotics and enzymes and everyone's health improved. 

What I noticed most remarkably were improvements in digestion for everyone and also a peaceful attitude. This was particularly noticeable in my 13-year old daughter who had the typical moodiness of the teen years. On her supplements, her mental health seems quite stable. Tiffany’s concentration in school and at home also improved and we are starting to wean her off her ADD medication.

It seems to be going well. Also, her appetite is better now. The medication suppresses it, but her homeopathic and nutritional program have remedied the situation. She seems to have a positive view of life. We're very happy with the results.

RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS, ALLERGIES, AUTISM

Our daughter Lisa has been diagnosed as a high-functioning autistic child.  When we first came to you, we thought she had vaccine injury, because it was right after her shots at age 2, that she stopped having normal eye contact and became very quiet.  She seemed not to interact with her brother anymore.  She also slowed down in her speech development.  We were very concerned, so we started the gluten and casein diet, for the most part, and we came to see you. 

We finally got her diarrhea handled with the nutritional supplements you recommended and over the next 9 months, her lung congestion and infections cleared up. We haven’t needed any antibiotics for over a year now.  Also, with the homeopathics and amino acid supplements you recommended, she started relaxing more and not coming so much from fear.  She began to have better eye contact.  Her muscles became stronger and she is now more active.  She is like herself again and she is mainstreamed into first grade.  We are so happy and relieved to have our little girl back again.  Thank you so much for your advice and for helping our family.

SUCCESS WITH NATURAL REMEDIES
FAILURE WITH PEDIATRICIAN RECOMMENDATIONS
         
My family and I have been working with Dr. Laura Thompson for several years.  Her compassion and understanding of our needs and her knowledge of nutrition and the body has made our dealings very comfortable, comforting, and safe.

Over the years, we had many other opportunities to use her helping hand. One time before a very important musical performance, my seventeen year old daughter came down with a severe bronchial and throat flu. After an intense emergency session from Dr. Laura, she was able to sing at the performance without a detection of any previous ailment. Thank you Dr. T for helping my family live a better life. We have experienced increased stable health and this is very welcome after previous failures with our pediatricians in handling some chronic situations. I confidently recommend Dr. Laura's care to others. It is a main staple in our house.

RASHES GONE, NO COLDS OR FLU FOR FAMILY

Dear Dr. Thompson,

We praise and thank God for the wisdom and knowledge given to you to help our family become healthier!  It is well worth the effort – especially when the results are so rewarding.

Bobby, age 13, is very susceptible to rashes and allergic to poison ivy. When he got this rash on his arms in the middle of January, I knew it couldn’t be poison ivy, but I watched it closely. No matter what ointment we put on it, the rash kept growing.  After 2 months, it went from the size of a dime to over 4 inches in diameter.  Our family doctor diagnosed it as a fungal growth and gave us a topical steroid.  We didn’t use the cream; we sought your direction.

After just three days of taking the supplements you suggested and applying the cream, Bobby’s rash was all but gone. Within 2 weeks, there was no sign of it at all. His overall health and stamina has improved over the last 4 months, which is evident in his improved academic and sports performance. Thank you and may others find better health with your good help.

NO MORE FEEDING TUBE and FINALLY GROWING

Dear Dr. Thompson – We are so thankful for your recommendations over the last few months. Our son, Abraham, was born with the cord around his neck and was oxygen deprived. He has had to be fed through a feeding tube all his life, until recently.

He was on 4 medications for acid reflux and constipation. With your soft food recommendations and the small amounts of supplements that we open and put into his feeding tube, he is down from 4 meds to 1 med, and that is only every other day. We know he’ll be medication free soon. And we are so excited that he is starting to eat normally. He is much happier, more comfortable, and finally growing. This is changing his life and we are so thankful.

EAR INFECTIONS, HYPERACTIVITY, BAD TEMPER, DIARRHEA

My whole family has benefited from Boyd’s nutritional program. His behavior has been a focal point for our family for several years and he is now 9 years old. We found that we were catering to his every desire, so there wouldn’t be any repercussions. My other children had begun to avoid him and cover their ears. He seemed to constantly create chaos.

We called you when we were at our wit’s end. We had tried so many things. After finding out what food allergies he has and then strengthening his immune system, he doesn’t act out anymore. The stress hormone balancing program you have him on, has helped his behavior so much. He is also eating different foods, sleeping better, and he has no more loose stools. We haven’t had any ear infections or colds in our house all winter. This is so unusual, but very welcome.

We defer to the natural medicine cabinet, our arsenal, that you helped us gather and create. All our children are now taking the supplements for their immune systems. We are so glad that the kids are getting along better. It’s been a long road. Thank you so much for helping our family.

SKIN RASHES, FUNGUS

We praise and thank God for the wisdom and knowledge given to you to help our family become healthier!  It is well worth the effort – especially when the results are so rewarding.

Charlie, age 13, is very susceptible to rashes and allergic to poison ivy. When he got this rash on his arms in the middle of January, I knew it couldn’t be poison ivy, but I watched it closely. No matter what ointment we put on it, the rash kept growing.  After 2 months, it went from the size of a dime to over 4 inches in diameter.  Our family doctor diagnosed it as a fungal growth and gave us a topical steroid.  We didn’t use the cream; we sought your direction.

After just three days of taking the supplements you suggested and applying the special cream you sent, Charlie’s rash was all but gone.  In 2 weeks, there was no sign of it at all. His overall health and stamina have improved over the last 4 months. This is evident in his improved academic and sports performance. Thank you. May others find better health with your good help. God bless.

FATIGUE, HYPERACTIVITY, MUSCULAR WEAKNESS – NOW ATHLETE!

Dear Dr. Laura,

Jon won the 600 meter race last night at Cornell University.  He ran a very smart race and shaved 2 seconds off his best time from last year!! He is very pleased to see that his strength for these races is only increasing.  I guess there is always the fear that maybe he has peaked but that is not the case!! We never want to run out of supplements. Thank you so much.

BETTER ATTITUDE, APPETITE, OFF MEDS

Dear Laura Thompson,

Thanks for helping me with my behavior and getting me off Ritalin, I have really improved in school! I am now off my Ritalin which I hated taking.  I'm off it because of brain supplements, enzymes, oils and  Natural Food Diet. My diet is really cool!!

I'm glad I don't have to take my Ritalin anymore it wasn't very fun or healthy. It isn't very healthy to take any medication. Most of the food we eat is not very healthy either. I'm not even talking about candy just, like soup, crackers and cheese have tons of bad stuff in them. That is why I eat natural foods and I think you should TOO!!!!!!  I'm glad we found you Dr. Thompson!!

STOMACH, FOCUS and CONCENTRATION BETTER, OFF MEDS

Dear Dr. Thompson,

You have helped me a lot with my Organic Diet and my supplements. The acidophilus and enzymes have helped my stomach a lot.  When I have non Organic things like a piece of cake, I have a stomach ache. When I eat organic foods I stay very healthy!!!

When I'm healthy I concentrate better on my homework and I am more relaxed.  I have more friends now and my Mom is happier too. The diet's greater than anything. But some people don't know this news about supplements and an Organic Diet.  They have helped me more than ever.

MENTAL CLARITY OFF MEDS, TICS GONE

My name is Donny. I’m 12 years old.  My nutrition program is one of the best things I’ve ever had.  It has made me feel good and made my mind clear.  It helped me lose weight.  I am off my medication and my tics are gone.  I learned to ride a bicycle. I am running in gym class now and lifting weights. 

I tell other kids’ moms that I won’t drink city water ‘cause it’s got chlorine and it’s gonna kill my good bacteria.  I take acidophilus for my good bacteria.  My stomach is much better with it.  I think that other kids with problems should learn to swallow supplements.

ATHLETICS, READING and STEALING
Hi, I’m Gracie and I’m 7 years old.  My favorite sport is kickball.  I am a good kicker.  I don’t eat foods with chemicals or much sugar. I take my supplements and my homeopathics. My reading is better now and my teacher says I am much calmer.  I don’t steal candy anymore.

ENERGY, FOCUS, and TEEN PMS

I’ve always had trouble swallowing pills, so I chew blue green algae tablets and cod liver oil capsules. When my teeth get green from the algae, I take a capsule and open it up in some juice or a smoothie. I definitely have more energy and can focus and concentrate better I get more work done now. My periods have become more regular and I don’t have PMS cramps or headaches anymore. The hormone creams are really easy to use and you don’t have to swallow them. I would recommend that other kids try a nutritional program and see the differences for themselves. 

ACNE, FATIGUE GONE

I had serious acne on my face and back.  It was horrible and very embarrassing.  Also I had a lot of gas and that was embarrassing.  I took your advice and changed my diet – some things – I really couldn’t give up chips.  But I hardly drink any soda now and I learned to like water.  I only go to fast food places after games or rehearsals.  I take my supplements at least once a day and sometimes twice.  My acne is 90 % gone on my face and back.  We are working on the scarring now.  I look so much better and I have a lot of energy and – no more gas!  Thanks a lot.

BOUNCED BACK FROM CHRONIC FATIGUE, DEPRESSION AND RETREAT FROM SOCIETY

Dr. T – Thanks so much for taking me through the natural hormone testing and program.  I have not had a normal teenager’s life.  Before I took the test and started the natural hormone cream, I slept sometimes 16 hours a day, had no energy, no enthusiasm, and never went to parties.  Gradually over the last 3 months, I began taking fewer naps and had more energy for computer work and going to the gym. I feel like I was in a cave and am not anymore.  I am not depressed anymore and my social life is getting better.

MIND QUICKER, MORE VITALITY, BETTER GRADES

Dr. Thompson – When I came to you, I didn’t know I had a problem. My dad knew it though and so did my teachers. When someone would ask me a question I would get all foggy and not react. I guess I was slow. It caused me to have just average grades cause I couldn’t finish my homework or remember things. They called it ADD and I know I could go on Adderall or something, but my dad didn’t want that.

After doing the brain testing that you did I could see that I wasn’t eating right. I eat more protein now cause you told me it’s good for studying. I never want to be without my brain supplements. They really helped me pull up my grades at the end of the school year and I don’t fall asleep in the middle of the day anymore. Oh yeah, my dad is happier now.
