      Praise for Quantum Supplements

      “Not only am I recommending Quantum Supplements for my clients, but I'm excited to apply the information in my own life. I've searched near and far for a chakra-based approach to nutrition, and Deanna's book is the richest and most effective tool-set I've ever seen. This is a critical handbook for anyone who wants to blend a practical approach with chakras to equal ‘real energy’ for life.” —Cyndi Dale, author of The Subtle Body: An Encyclopedia of Your Energetic Anatomy

      “A detailed, informative, and comprehensive reference, Quantum Supplements is a fascinating guide that elevates supplementation to new a level. Deanna Minich insightfully explains how the biological and physiological affects of vitamins, minerals, herbs, and other supplements influence our emotions, behavior, and subtle energy body. This enlightening and groundbreaking book is a must read for anyone interested in holistic health, supplements, and healing. Another fascinating work by Deanna Minich!” —Elise Marie Collins, author of Chakra Tonics and An A–Z Guide to Healing Foods

      “Quantum Supplements is an absolute gem! In a time when the majority of nutrition books simply repeat the same old tired information, Deanna Minich has created a highly innovative, practical, and compelling work. Simply put, her unique blending of energy medicine, the chakra system, and clinical nutrition is found absolutely nowhere else, and significantly pushes the envelope when it comes to supplements and health. Dr. Minich seamlessly weaves together scientific fact and ancient/intuitive wisdom in a highly readable fashion. Your understanding of vitamins, minerals, and herbs will be forever changed. I consider this book a must have reference work that takes us into the future of nutrition.” —Marc David, founder and director of The Institute for the Psychology of Eating, author of Nourishing Wisdom and The Slow Down Diet

      “An original and outstanding work of art and science.” —Kenneth Fine, M.D., founder and director of The Intestinal Health Institute

      “‘The missing piece,’ I whispered as I read this wonderful book. How could food be confined to such mundane terms as calories, carbs, and proteins,when the mere thought of it brings forth such great emotion and spirit? A must read!” —Adam Banning, lecturer, radio personality, functional medicine consultant, and author of Seeing the Angel in the Mirror

      ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

      Even though I've never given birth to a child, I believe that writing a book comes pretty close. I am incredibly grateful to all involved for the opportunity to share this creation, which is really the culmination of learning, insight, and information from numerous teachers, mentors, and friends throughout my life who have formed ripples in my internal waters.

      My path to chakras, health, and nutrition has been led by several incredible individuals. The teachings of Caroline Myss have served as a wellspring of inspiration for me in the past decade. I admire her courage, strength, and direct approach that enables profound spiritual concepts to take on a practical, everyday twist. Her writings on chakras and health were essential teachings for me early in my career. Patrice Connelly trained me to see and work with my own chakras and those of others. The spiritual lessons she unraveled to me became a foundation from which to continue this healing art. Cyndi Dale has been a remarkably instrumental teacher and guide, and she has helped me to unfold the future that lie awaiting for me. Char Sundust, one of the most amazing, beautiful beings I have ever met, has helped me to grow and become teacher, writer, and artist. Her hope and faith in me gave me the spark to create. I thank her for the training in the Shamanic tradition that she provided me. It has become a thread through everything I do.

      In addition to the energy healers who have influenced my path, I have had the pleasure of working with mentors in nutrition, including Jeffrey Bland, Phyllis Bowen, Maria Sapuntzakis, Clare Hasler, Henkjan Verkade, Roel Vonk, Jack Kornberg, Robert Lerman, Barb Schiltz, Donna Landry, and Lyra Heller. All of you have been beyond inspirational, encouraging me to explore health and nutrition in innovative, exciting ways. Special thanks to Barb
