About Us (Why I Do This)
Sunshine('s) isn't just the name of the company, it's my God given middle name. With a name like Sunshine, you learn to be strong and bright, or suffer; either at the hands of cruel children, or life itself. Truth be told, mine has been quite extraordinary and one of extreme joys and sorrows. The most sorrowful being the death of my 4 year old son in 2003. Although I would not wish the loss of a child on my worst enemy, believe it or not, I wouldn't change it for the world. It is the reason I am a nurse, serve a living God, and the reason I am alive. I used to say I was passionate about healthcare...and I am passionate about what I do as a nurse, but frankly, I have lost faith in the system itself. I believe we have remained far too interventive than preventive, and even the interventions are typically based on convenience and not compassion. I remain at the core, passionate about people and their wellness; which is why I believe in the nature of this company. While I still believe that nutrition must come primarily from the food we eat (which is why I have so many colorful and healthy pictures of food on my website), I believe we have simply destroyed it's nutritional content. Even the most conscientious person striving to maintain a whole food, even organic, diet...without realizing it, is most likely eating nutritionally shallow food (and water! good water=minerals=balanced hormones=YAY!). For decades we have destroyed the way we produce our food (and water!), from GMO's, pesticides, herbicides, chemical fertilizers, and over farming for the sake of quantity and not quality; it would take many more deliberate years to heal it. An apple today has approximately 40% of the nutritional value it had 50 years ago. Similarly, most of our guts have been destroyed by processed and refined foods, even in moderation. Antibiotics, prescription medications, environmental factors, and our own lifestyle stressors and co-factors, have left us dealing with many new ailments that did not exist just a few short years ago. So while I do not profess to treat or heal any disease, it would appear simple that if we bypass both the soil and the gut, and place the nutrients directly into our bloodstream, perhaps we will see some real improvements in how we look, feel, or even think and act. We may even see an improvement in some of the issues that appear to plague many of us on a daily basis such as chronic fatigue, headaches, depressed mood, trouble sleeping, weight gain.....just to name a few. The most exciting and rewarding thing for me as a healthcare provider is when someone can't wait to tell me how much better they feel, or they are no longer dealing with an issue they have had for years, and it is written all over them. That is what I have experienced with IV treatments and simple lifestyle changes that I am so excited to share with you. So please get in touch with me. Can't wait to hear your story, help you set your goals, and watch them become a reality for you.....can't wait to meet you!
Blessings until then,
Amparo Sunshine, RN
