Dr. Juliet Tien, affectionately addressed by her clients as "Dr. J," successfully conquered a severe case of yeast disorder that she has experienced from birth to her early twenties. Since correcting her weight and health problems, she has used her first-hand experience to help thousands of people achieve optimal health using the combination of nutritional approach, Chinese herbal therapy, psychological counseling and past-life therapy.

"Dr. J" was born in Taiwan and is a naturalized U.S. citizen. She received her bachelor's degree in nursing from National Taiwan University, her master's degree in Psychiatric/Mental Health Nursing from Boston College, and her doctorate in Community Mental Health Nursing from the University of California, San Francisco. She is a former UCLA professor in Psychiatric/Mental Health Nursing for seven years. She is the recipient of numerous awards and grants from prestigious institutions including the National Institute of Mental Health.

Author's Note: Breaking the Yeast Curse: Food and Unconditional Love for Magic Healing and Healthy and Tasty: Dr. J's Anti-Yeast Cooking were originally written as one book.  Upon my clients' request, the book was divided into two parts for the convenience of putting the recipe book on the kitchen counter.  To obtain maximum benefits from the books, it is recommended that you purchase and read both books as a set.
