Anonymous, in response to you statement about spokespeople:

I'm sorry, but where has it ever been written or insisted that the Wiley Protocol is a replacement for healthy eating, physical activity, good sleep habits, and a cure all for genetic propensity for weight gain?

Nowhere. In fact, there's a whole other body of research we are solidly behind revolving around sleep. We think it's just as important as hormones. And unfortunately for some of us who are very busy here at Wiley Systems, it's not something we always get as much of as we would like.

Wiley Protocol is a replacement for hormones. There are young, unhealthy people all over. In fact, in the US, we're surrounded by them, more than half of our population is clinically obese. Their hormones are just fine, it's all of there other health choices that are wrong.

If a doctor is overweight, should someone take their license away? What if they have high cholesterol? Aging, as well as certain lifestyle habits, happen. Judging a hormone replacement system on something as complicated as physical appearance in 2 people is, I'm sorry to say, a poor way to make a good informed decision. And actually, if you've ever seen the clinical guidelines given to all doctors who are trained by us, you'll see there are a large number on non-hormonal adjustments for symptoms while on the Wiley Protocol. This is especially true of migraines. Feel free to ask your Dr. for a look at the Clinical Guidelines Manual. From caffeine intake, sleep adjustment, and a number of other things, there are lots of alternatives we recognize and suggest before a modification to the hormone dosing is suggested. But for what it's worth, the vast majority of migraines happen at specific times in a cycle, or after menopause when hormones fall off. We didn't cause that to happen, nature did. Very few women find relief from migraines on anything but correct hormone adjustment in our experience. If you have something better, by all means, please share.

I'm not familiar with bio-energetics or doctors that practice it, so I can't comment too much more on that. I do know that migraines are a hallmark symptom of low estrogen. We've seen it, and addressed it, with thousands of women at this point.

However, all that being said, please don't mistake the Wiley Protocol as billing itself as some sort of panacea to cure all ills and allow you to live as frivolously as you like with regards to your health. As you've correctly identified, health is multi-dimensional and hormones are one part of that. I'm sorry if your physician gave you a different impression of what we teach and what we stand for. Hopefully this helps to set the record straight.
