<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Did you know that one single enzyme impacts your odds of contracting most deadly diseases and health conditions?</b> <p/> An enormous body of reputable research into this enzyme has been isolated, ignored, and misunderstood by medical experts. The importance of this enzyme simply cannot be overstated. <p/><i>The Calcium Connection: The Little-Known Enzyme at the Root of Your Cellular Health </i>delivers a clear explanation of this enzyme's function and outlines the steps you can take to gain optimal enzyme health. The accessible, information-packed format teaches you all about Calcium ATPase: how it works, what happens when it goes awry, and easy, practical methods to bring it back into balance and protect it--and your overall health. Whether you're a health enthusiast, environmentalist, parent, or just want to be better informed, this book will help you boost your health now and into the future. <p/> Brunde Broady recounts her tireless quest to find a cure for her son Knute's compromised health since being whisked away and kept in ICU after birth. The medical establishment could only help manage his condition, but not diagnose or cure him. Doing her own research and documenting everything Knute ate and his reactions to certain foods, she came across two ubiquitous food additives. Diving deeper, she learned how Calcium ATPase, a fundamental regulator of intercellular calcium, is negatively impacted, not only by these additives, but by a torrent of other inhibitors. <p/> Knute's health is a testament to Brunde's discoveries, and <i>The Calcium Connection</i> gives readers a front-row seat to understanding how to maintain optimized cellular health.<br><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"In this book, Brunde Broady lays the groundwork for a compelling theory about the causes of disease, while providing ample evidence from the primary scientific literature that Calcium ATPase is a major determinant of human health and wellness."<br><b>--Russell Dahl, PhD</b> <p/> "The medical system was nearly powerless against the serious health problems Brunde Broady's son experienced from the very beginning. But this brilliant scientist and mother would not give up, and eventually found answers that not only helped her son tremendously but can help countless others, too. You may never have heard of Calcium ATPase, but as Brunde Broady found, it has an enormous influence on an astounding variety of health issues and could be the key many suffering people are looking for."<br><b>--</b><b>John Robbins</b>, bestselling author, and president of Food Revolution Network <p/> "Brunde Broady has achieved a rare feat in health and wellness publications. She has written a book that is steeped in deep scientific research and is an absolute pleasure to read. As an integrative physician, I know proactive medicine is key. The information outlined in this book will supercharge your passion to make healthy choices and to live well without sacrificing lifestyle."<br><b>--Dana G. Cohen, MD</b>, functional medicine physician and coauthor of <i>Quench</i> <p/> "If there ever was the right book at the right time, Brunde Broady's <i>The Calcium Connection</i> would be it. Broady takes us through an easy-to-understand introduction to Calcium ATPase, how an imbalance of intracellular Calcium can wreak havoc on the body, and most importantly, steps you can take to keep this enzyme on the job. Despite its wealth of knowledge, <i>The Calcium Connection</i> is an easy read, and if you want to do everything you can to maintain good health it's one you won't want to miss."<br><b>--</b><b>Linda Bonvie</b>, coauthor, <i>A Consumer's Guide to Toxic Food Additives</i> <p/> "I immediately connected to Brunde's tireless need to help her son get well. She had to remain open, curious and relentless in her pursuit of answers. <i>The Calcium Connection </i>is a statement on possibility. Brunde's appreciation and respect for science as well as food as medicine is deeply valued. Her thoughtful voice ushers us through her process hoping that it can make a difference in our health, just as it did for her family."<br><b>--</b><b>Stefanie Sacks, MS, CNS, CDN</b>, culinary nutritionist and author of <i>What the Fork Are You Eating</i> <p/> "As mother warrior faced with her young son's mysterious health issues, Brunde Broady stopped at nothing to learn the cause and remedy. Her long, challenging road became a deep investigation of <i>The Calcium Connection</i> and its relationship to health.
