About Anastasia Chopelas, Ph.D.:,

I spent the last 38 years steeped in science, thinking I was doing my life’s calling.
One day in 1994, I went to the doctor for a routine pelvic exam and came out with the shocking news that my blood pressure was through the roof (190/110) and I had a giant fibroid tumor.
This was the beginning of a long downward spiral including high cholesterol, obesity, painful arthritis, memory problems, lack of energy and migraines. I felt my mortality closing in on me and wondered if I was going to die young as two of my grandparents had.
This led me down a path of researching health, reading dozens of health books, medical texts and articles.
In addition, I was living in Germany then and discovered homeopathy and naturopathy, both which were far advanced compared to what I had left in the United States in 1986. I was lucky to have had one of the top homeopathic doctors in Germany nearby and was able to “partner” with her to find my way back to health.
I discovered that a lot of what is written out there, particularly anecdotally, is ineffective.
It has been a long climb back to health and leanness. The lifestyle changes I made are in my books and articles, some of which have been published on the web. I have participated on forums for weight/fat loss, fibroid tumors, and cholesterol, helping as many people as I can. My first complete book is “Get Rid of Bad Cholesterol.” I plan several more on the various topics I have grappled with.
This was a start of a new life’s mission. I feel so strongly about this that I retired from my six figure job to do this full time.
In the meantime, I’ve also discovered that I have natural healing ability and am studying with a powerful energy healer to incorporate this into this new mission. I’ve started taking on private clients.
Education: Ph.D., Chemsitry, MS, Geochemistry from UCLA and Caltech.
To the right: You see me at age 53, nearly at the top of my weight range (left side of picture). It was shocking to see I had gotten so bad. The picture on the right, at age 59, was taken last month. Not only do my lifestyle changes reduce cholesterol, it’s also like a time machine set to backwards. I look much younger now than I did 6 years ago!
I’ve put my program for lowering cholesterol into a new set of books called “Get Rid of Bad Cholesterol”. Coming soon is an online action guide for improving health and lifestyle. I am available for private consulting. Contact me using the contact link. I answer all questions and queries.
