What is the 360° Weight Loss Plan?
The 360° Weight Loss Plan is the innovation of Tiffany Jackson, ND, who is a licensed Naturopathic doctor with more than five years of experience helping people to achieve healthy and natural weight loss. Jackson and Jacobs specifically designed the 360° weight loss plan to provide people wanting to lose weight with virtually all the necessary amounts of protein, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, trace elements and essential fatty acids in proper balance.
With the help and ongoing support of 360° Weight loss, people on the 360° plan are empowered to make better food choices and are not required to purchase food products or meal replacements. Food preparation is very simple on the plan. Wholesome readily available foods such as meat, fish, cheese, eggs, vegetables and fruit are recommended.
To help minimize cravings between meals, nutritional packets are taken each day. As well as helping to minimize cravings, these packets provide the body with additional vitamins, minerals and amino acids.
By following the recommended eating plan and consuming the specially prepared nutrition packets, the bodies of those on the 360° plan burn stored fat cells as energy, rather than depleting vital fluids and muscle mass. A simple test is performed each day at home to confirm that the fat burning process is taking place as it should.
Once participants on the plan have reached their ideal weight, they are placed on a well-balanced maintenance program. During this part of the program, their body continues to reshape until it reaches its optimum weight. This weight is decided by our body’s own metabolism.
The 360° Weight Loss Plan offers you:
- Ample, tasty REAL food in balanced portions
- The ability to lose excess body fat rapidly
- No cravings
- More vitality and a clearer mind
- Increased calorie burning
- One-on-one professional weekly consultations
How much can you lose on the 360° weight loss plan?
Most people can expect to lose up to 2 to 5 pounds in the first week and up to 2 to 3 pounds per week thereafter.

Autism Lecture Series in Honor of Autism Awareness Month
March 6, 2010
Mt. Pleasant, SC – Tiffany Jackson, ND, a naturopathic doctor and owner of EcoHealth & Wellness, LLC, is offering a Free Autism Lecture Series at Whole Foods Market® in April, in honor of Autism Awareness Month. The educational Lecture Series will provide alternative therapy information for parents of children on the Autism Spectrum. Lectures are held in a private conference room and healthy snacks are provided.
Research shows that many individuals with autism spectrum disorders have underlying issues that frequently go undiagnosed and can cause or exacerbate symptoms of autism. These problems include vitamin and mineral deficiencies, food allergies, chronic viruses, bacterial infections, impaired immune function, heavy metal toxicity, neuro-inflammation, and more. When these issues are addressed and resolved, the symptoms of autism can be dramatically reduced.
EcoHealth & Wellness’s primary goal is to educate parents with the alternative resources they need to make informed decisions about their child’s healthcare. The purpose of these lectures is to relay updated research, therapies, and holistic approaches that many parents have found to be helpful.
This Autism Lecture Series is FREE and held every Wednesday in April from 6:00–7:15pm at Whole Foods Market® in Mount Pleasant, SC. Lecture dates are:
- April 7- There is Hope! Understanding Alternative Approaches to Autism

About Tiffany Jackson, ND

Natural Medicine
Posted by: | CommentsEcoHealth & Wellness practices natural medicine and believes that the body has its own innate ability to heal itself and improve your health conditions. As an ND, Dr. Jackson practices the 6 principles of natural medicine.
- Use low-risk procedures and healing compounds—such as dietary supplements, herbal extracts and homeopathy—with few or no side effects.
- When possible, do not suppress symptoms, which are the body’s efforts to self-heal. For example, the body may cook up a fever in reaction to a bacterial infection. Fever creates an inhospitable environment for the harmful bacteria, thereby destroying it. Of course, the naturopathic physician would not allow the fever to get dangerously high.
- Customize each diagnosis and treatment plan to fit each patient. We all heal in different ways and the naturopathic physician respects our differences.
These principles are the guidelines behind alternative and holistic medicine.
Diabetics & Celiac Disease
Posted by: | Comments
EcoHealth & Wellness recommends that if your child is suffering from diabetes that he or she be checked for celiac disease as well. Celiac disease is an allergy to products containing gluten, which is often found in most products that contain wheat and other similar food sources. Recent research has found that 1 in 10 children with diabetes also have celiac disease.
Researchers have found that celiac disease often precedes Type 1 diabetes, in children that have both conditions, as reported on celiac.com in January.
Up to 10% of children with Type 1 have clinical celiac disease, according to findings presented at Gastro 2009 in London, UK by T. Hansson of Uppsala University Hospital, Sweden.
Hansson explained that researchers detected elevated levels of celiac disease-associated antibodies in children with recent onset Type 1 diabetes.
“The presence of autoantibodies against tissue transglutaminase implies that celiac disease was present already at the time of Type 1 diabetes onset in all children having both diseases,” he said. “Hence, celiac disease may precede and cause Type 1 diabetes in children with both diseases.”

The Truth About Water
Posted by: | Comments
EcoHealth & Wellness recommends using alkaline based water to provide yourself with extra benefits to give the body overall wellness. Kangen is one type of water that has been alkalized and oxidation reduced to create a water that will do more than just hydrate the body.
Kangen is a Japanese word, best translated into English as “Return To Original” which means several things when used to describe water.
Kangen water is simply an easier way of stating: Alkaline, ionized, anti-oxidant electron rich, restructured, micro clustered, active hydrogen saturated, oxidation reduced, powerful living water.
Kangen water can Flush Toxins and Neutralize Acidity in your body.
Kangen water is water that has gone through a Special Electrolysis Process that changes the pH of the water to ALKALINE and much, much more.
First, it describes water returned to the state in which water was often found in nature before the earth became polluted.
Second, it implies that it will help to return your body to its original condition when you were young. Kangen water is a powerful antioxidant, perhaps more powerful than any single food or vitamin supplement because Kangen water contains active hydrogen which supplies huge amounts of extra electrons to our body.
Kangen water is also known to have small clusters of 5 to 6 water molecules , as a result of the electrolysis process. Making it a Super Hydrating water. You can taste the difference in your first glass. Tap water is typically 12 to 15 molecules per cluster. That is over double the size of Kangen water.
Small clusters also mean that your body can readily absorb the minerals in this water into your cells in mere seconds. Reverse Osmosis, Distilled and tap water will slosh around in your stomach and often flush key minerals out of your body because they lack these important properties.
This is particularly important for your metabolism since smaller elements pass through cell membranes more easily and eliminate acidic wastes and toxins from your body more effectively. With this water, your body will enjoy the quicker cellular hydration and super waste elimination.
The electrical charge of Kangen machine re-arranges healthy minerals that are naturally included in your tap water. As a result, Kangen water contains essential minerals, such as Calcium, Magnesium, and Potassium, in an ionic form that can be assimilated immediately into your body.
It is now a common knowledge that a lot of medical benefits come from anti-oxidant properties.
USES FOR ALKALINE WATER
or KANGEN WATER:
Flushes toxins.
Disarms Free Radicals.
Restores alkalinity in your body.
Increases stable oxygen in your body.
Enhances delivery of nutrients.
Cooking with Alkaline water improves the nutritional value and the taste of food and drinks such as, tea and coffee.
It makes acidic foods and drinks more alkaline.
