"The Body Knows" - ask a medical intuitive


by Caroline Sutherland
Dear Caroline,

Do you think all diseases are physically or spiritually based?

Garth R. Whidby Island, WA



Dear Garth,

I am only one person and have the perspective of working with thousands of people as an allergy-testing technician and health educator for over two decades.


I believe that we are born with patterns - imprinted on us from the emotional body of our parents – even ancestors. In my own life, I was born to a wonderful mother who was concerned for the safety of her husband. There was my mother in her mid 30’s having her second child – alone. My father, a ship’s surgeon in the British Navy was aboard a destroyer in the mid-Atlantic during the war. I believe that I was imprinted with deep patterns of worry, concern and insecurity which have taken me a lifetime to overcome. In the Buddhist tradition, it is believed that a soul is reincarnated and reborn over and over again until certain lessons are learned and the soul progresses. Therefore, we arrive on this planet not whole, perfect and complete but with a set of cells that contain emotional material that can pre-dispose us to weak physical links – which may appear later in life. To rise above, to gain strength and to overcome these limitations is our great quest.


I believe that diseases begin when we disregard what gives us joy and happiness. I suppose the route to good health is to be happy and to live in joy and appreciation.


Regardless of these higher aspects, I see countless people who completely disregard the physical body. They have terrible diets, rarely exercise, entertain negative thoughts, hang on to old emotional baggage and then sickness follows. But the miracle of the body prevails and with a little help, the body “knows” what to do and it can repair at any age. When the body repairs, the energy returns, the lights go on, the vitality pours back into the body and then everything lines up! The emotions take on a rational perspective and the person becomes spiritually aligned – thus we are witnessing the true miracle of the body mind and spirit connection.




Dear Caroline,

Every single December 31st my New Year’s resolution is - lose weight! I pinch my thighs and stomach, swear off fat and all my treats and then by January 2nd I am back to my old habits. I know that carrying extra weight is a symptom of something deeper but I wish there was a simple solution. Please help.

Brenda A, Beaverton Oregon



Dear Brenda,

I totally understand how you feel. For 20 years I struggled with yo-yo dieting until it was discovered that I was eating foods to which I was allergic. Within a month of avoiding these foods, I lost 20 pounds – never to be regained unless I slipped back into my old eating habits. The secrets of successful weight loss are all described in my new book "The Body Knows Diet – cracking the weight loss code. I believe that successful weight loss is a code – a recipe which when followed will yield results without starvation and penance. So have faith in your New Years resolution this year!


These are the five important components of effective weight loss:

1. Food allergies: most overweight people have food allergies — particularly to the common foods that they eat every day. Foods to avoid are dairy products, wheat, corn, soy and yeast. Food allergies can trigger histamine reactions which result in fluid retention.


2. Chronic Candidiasis: most overweight people are afflicted with the Candida Yeast Syndrome, which can trigger tremendous cravings for starches and sugars. Candida is easy to correct – ask for a yeast eradication kit at your health food store.


3. Excessive carbohydrate consumption: carbohydrates (starches) quickly convert to sugar. Excess sugar is stored in the fat cells. Reduce carbohydrate consumption to 60 grams per day. For example 1⁄2 cup cooked rice is about 23 grams of carbohydrate and 1 slice of whole wheat bread is 25 grams. Carb grams add up quickly!


4. Exercise: let’s get the body moving, move the lymphatic system, tune and tone up muscles and fibers, increase the heart rate and feel better. Choose something simple that you can commit to every day like a brisk walk, swim or yoga stretches.


5. Hormone imbalances: another major component in the weight question is hormones. Overweight people often have thyroid problems and related endocrine problems which can affect fat-burning metabolism. Hormones require careful balancing which can be done through your local naturopathic physician or holistic medical doctor or family nurse practitioner.


Now let’s take a look at the emotional component. What are you weighting for? Often we use food to placate our inner child which is always hungry for joyful, meaningful expression. How much joy and happiness do you have in your life? Are you enjoying your job and relationships? Are you enjoying your own company and are you at peace with yourself? These are things to think about as we start the New Year.
