Who's Who
Dr. Smith's biography is in the Library of Congress, Washington D.C., in several Who's Who Directories.
"Dr Smith, What Inspired You To Study Nutritional Science and Naturopathy?"
Given The Gift of Herbs
Dr. Smith is
often asked how and when did she first become interested in nutritional
science and naturopathy. This was in the summer of 1975, at the age of
24, when she first discovered and witnessed the healing properties of
herbs and the value of organic farming when on sabbatical in Spokane,
Washington.
One day, her
roommate, Theresa, who also attended church with Dr. Smith, gave her a
gift of a book on herbs. One of the first herbs that got her attention
was Yarrow. She read that collecting Yarrow flower tops, steeping them
in boiled water, after removing the water from the stove (you boil the
water, not the herb), made an excellent hair rinse for blonds. She also read that Yarrow
was an herbal blood thinner and its leaves could instantly stop bleeding.
Little Amy's Injury
The
following weekend, Dr. Smith and another church friend, Melinda, along
with Melinda's 4-year-old daughter, went into the country side of
Spokane to gather yarrow flower tops for their hair -- as all three of
them were blondes. While enjoying the venture, little Amy fell and cut
her knee on a rock,. Her blood began to seep down her leg. Dr. Smith
quickly crushed some Yarrow leaves and witnessed her first miracle of the intrinsic, medicinal properties of herbs as she observed, with fascination, the Yarrow leaves instantly stopped the bleeding from the cut on Amy's little injured knee.
Life Changing Experience - Dr. Smith's Life Mission Discovered
From that
point on, Dr. Smith's life's changed. What started as a curious
interest became a divine mission and driving force of ongoing 24/7
study and pursuit of the professional education, training, degrees and
certifications she has today that would assist her in helping others,
as she had Amy on that beautiful, sunny Saturday afternoon in 1975. .
Nutritional Clinic
From its
establishment in November, 1981, to March 31, 2009, Dr. Smith's
clinical nutrition and naturopathic business has evolved and expanded
to successfully
assisting thousands of clients improve and maintain their
health, with up to five (5) employees to assist her in providing
in-office clinical
examinations, laboratory testing and consultations, in addition to
providing
parallel services by mail, e-mail and telephone consulting, nationally
and internationally, for those who did not have a practitioner in their
community with Dr. Smith's qualifications, or did not have her expertise and clincal experience.
Local Client Services - From Clinic To By Mail Services
On
April 1, 2009, Dr. Smith reorganized her local Texoma, client services
to
provide them by mail, e-mail and through telephone consultations, just
like her long-distance clientele, and closed her local clinic, after
27.5 years, to use that time, instead, for writing books, e-books
and more articles on a variety of dietary, clinical nutrition and
naturopathic (natural healing) topics. Dr. Smith has a wealth of
knowledge and clinical experience to share with the public, as you will
observe in the articles she has written since the 1970's.
