"Nature - on which all life depends - is the greatest healer"
The emergency medical care system in America is among the best of the best. However, the rest of our healthcare system is a horse of a different color. A more appropriate description would be "sickness" care. Despite the fact that the U.S. spends more money on health care than any other nation, it ranks just 34th in the world in life expectancy.
Our healthcare system is focused on disease "treatment" rather than disease "prevention". Doctors don't have the necessary time to discuss our health issues in any depth. Prescription medications are handed out like candy. Unfortunately, drugs only "manage" the disease and do little or nothing about the underlying cause; not to mention the long list of undesirable side effects associated with using prescription medications. Even medical research is geared toward treatment and not prevention. The big pharmaceutical companies have their influence in that arena. Just watch the relentless pharmaceutical commercials on television. Is it in our best interest to allow "Big Pharma" to tell us what medications we should be taking? Do you know how many people die each year as a result of correctly administered doses of legal prescription drugs!
Our population is overweight, out-of-shape, chronically tired, and over-stressed. It's no wonder we are unhappy. If you are concerned about your health and longevity, you must make it happen on your own. You can't rely on our current health system. Your focus needs to be on pro-active preventative health care. If you stay healthy, you won't need treatment. It can be that simple. It's your life. Don't settle for anything less!
Getting Started
When was the last time you talked with someone about your health and received the personal attention you deserve?
If you can get a trained medical professional to spend an hour with you to work on your nutrition and goals, you are doing well. As a health coach, I am here to support and spend time with you while we explore what really works for you as an individual.
Could one 30 minute conversation make a difference in your life?
Schedule a Health History Consultation with me and find out.
Just ask yourself . . .
- Are you unhappy with your current weight?
- Do you feel out-of-shape or unfit?
- Are you tired of always being tired?
- Do you often feel stressed out?
- Are your health and lifestyle attitudes lacking something?
If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, you are not alone. Most of us are confronted with some or all of these issues during our lifetime. If your doctor says "you're just getting older", or "learn to live with it", don't believe it. There are ways and means to lead a better and healthier lifestyle. You can seriously improve your health and slow down the aging process by following a few simple guidelines. I can help you with this process.
Health History
I received my training to practice health counseling at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in Manhattan. The opportunity to study with leading wellness educators including Drs. Neil Barnard, Andrew Weil, Bernie Siegel, Barry Sears, Walter Willett, and T. Colin Campbell; and leaders in nutrition and personal development, such as Geneen Roth, David Wolfe, Sally Fallon and Howard Lyman, among others, has been invaluable.
For a limited time I am offering a free Health History Consultation. This preliminary consultation will allow us to discuss your concerns and goals for your health as well as your life. It is a good way for you to see how I work with a client. There is no obligation, so please take advantage of this offer. It's never too late to start living a happier, healthier life!
If you are interested in my offer, please complete and email a copy of the relevant health history form, to me at Michael@kosibahealth.com (The form can be filled in on your computer). When I receive your completed Health History form, I will contact you to make an appointment for either a personal or phone consultation.

About Michael
Since my early days of playing sports in high school and college, fitness and health have always been a part of my life.
Competing in men's league basketball until the age of 50, coupled with other regular exercise over the years has kept me very fit and healthy. The very physical aspect of my lifelong career as a farrier has also been a favorable health factor in my life. I currently weigh the same as I did in college.
My eating habits were a different story. My diet varied from junk to health food and everywhere in between. However, I did begin to eat healthier as the years rolled on. The healthier I ate, the better I felt. Meeting my wife, Cathy, in 2001 really supercharged my health and lifestyle. Cathy is a Certified Holistic Health Counselor and works with people who are addicted to dieting for weight loss. Her anti-diet program is revolutionary. Thanks to her knowledge and professional advice, my eating and health habits are better than ever.
In 2010 I turned 62, but I certainly don't feel it. I run regularly with a group of younger friends and I still feel like I did in my forties. By following a few simple guidelines I am able to maintain optimal health and fitness and promote longevity.
I received my training and certification to practice Health Coaching at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, which is the only nutrition school integrating all the different dietary theories—combining the knowledge of traditional philosophies with modern concepts like the USDA food pyramid, the glycemic index, the Zone and raw foods. I am also an AADP Board Certified Holistic Health Practitioner.
Currently I am a student at the Connecticut Institute for Herbal Studies, enrolled in the Certified Chinese Herbology Program. Upon completion of this course of study in February, 2011, I will receive my cetification as a Chinese Hebologist.
There is no magic pill for health, but there are many secrets. And I am willing to share them.
Best regards,
Michael
