About Nicole Apelian, Ph.D

Hi. I'm Dr. Nicole Apelian. I’m an herbalist, a mother, a survival skills instructor, and a biologist. I’ve studied natural remedies for well over 20 years.

 

I’ve lived, foraged, and made herbal remedies with one of the oldest cultures on planet Earth, the San Bushmen. The San still procure their medicines out of nature, and many of them live well to a ripe old age without ever taking pills or seeing the inside of a hospital.

When I was just 29 years old, I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. MS is an incurable autoimmune condition that makes your own immune system attack the brain and spinal cord.


I was in constant agony, most of the time in a wheelchair. The pain was so bad that I couldn't even walk. It felt like pins and needles were stabbing every inch of my body. I couldn’t sleep on most nights; my life turned completely upside down.

Just imagine what your life would be like if you were in excruciating pain, without a moment’s rest, day and night, for years on end.

 

I tried every possible medicine—Western, Eastern, mainstream, and less mainstream—only to become sicker and sicker.
