Chart Kelly’s progress by looking for update articles in the next several issues of Nature’s Wisdom Magazine.

Sue Fetzner first met Kelly Cheatle on Friday, August 12, 2005, at the “Abundance Rising” Holistic Networking dinner, sponsored by Solistic Health Association and Nature’s Wisdom Magazine. Sue was offering free antioxidant level analysis, utilizing a revolutionary new machine developed by the University of Utah. The machine is the recent winner of and American business award, as is being touted as a breakthrough nutritional analysis tool. As individuals grouped around Sue’s exhibitor table for their free sampling of how the machine works, a smiling young woman stepped up to wait her turn. The results of her test, and some in depth conversation, earned her a spotlight performance in what may well be the biggest challenge she’s embraced since giving birth to her three children.

According to official literature, the impressively high-tech scanner measures the level of nutrition in the body and tells the truth about a person’s nutrition and lifestyle, the effectiveness of nutritional supplements and what is going on in the tissue; the scanner reveals the level of overall health. The technology used is Raman Spectroscopy for carotenoid investigations of life body tissue. An immediate reading, called a Skin Carotenoid Score, is yielded by simply placing a hand in front of a low energy blue laser light. Safe and non-invasive, the result is an accurate assessment of antioxidant levels in the skin, which correlates with diet, blood and tissues, thus predicting the subject’s future health in terms of aging and disease.

Kelly Cheatle’s score was a 13,000. According to Sue Fetzner, this score is a red flag and indicates there is a lot of free radical damage which in turn indicates that her body is deteriorating at a fast pace, leaving her at high risk for chronic disease. Kelly’s reaction to the score was surprise mixed with a feeling of futility. She shared some of her weight and health concerns with Sue, which were in alignment with her low score. With Nature’s Wisdom publisher and editor Jo Valerie standing nearby, conversation ensued. The end result is this, a six-month long holistic makeover we’re calling The Kelly Challenge.

Kelly says she’s on “Empty.” She’s had three children in almost three years, two of them currently toddlers and one a baby. She runs her business from home and while it is successful, she admits that she is often struggling to find a balance between family and work, with her children demanding much of her time and attention, and her clients just as much. Personal time is almost non-existent and she routinely works into the wee hours just to stay current on professional projects.

With no exercise and a diet consisting mainly of Carbohydrates, little meat and occasional fruit, Kelly realizes that her health has suffered, and will not improve until she makes some drastic changes. She says she wants vibrant health, to match her already “super fantastic” personality. And she says, “ I will do whatever you tell me to do fix me!”
