Foster's Body Chemistry Associates offers nutritional testing and interventions through services provided by himself and his associates at a clinic in the Dadeland area of Miami. This program is also made available for people who can't come to the Miami clinic but can get their doctor to sign forms that facilitate the nutritional testing and recommendations by obtaining a blood sample from a doctor-ordered test, which is then submitted to Foster's body chemistry testing program for analysis. Jay Foster collects an impressive range of information about health and is frequently highly critical of conventional medicine and pharmaceutical approaches, often alerting his audience to health hazards contained in medications, food additives, beauty products, and household products. For honest, uncompromised news on health and nutrition, Jay Foster is one of South Florida's most veteran and reliable resources.

Dear Jed Schlackman,
This is certainly an admirable list of credits to nutritional biochemist, Jay Foster, and to the practice of alternative medicine in Florida. It appears that today, more people are aware that vibrant health starts at the level of the cell.
A book I have recently written contributes to this perspective and I want to draw it to your attention, as you may be interested in it. The title is "Soul Talk With Cells: What We Really Want Is To Play" and it is available online now and in bookstores soon. If you have any questions, I am most willing to offer my views on this topic.

I have been using Jay Foster's suppliments for several years now and it has helped me tremendously..Jay has very good information and a wondeful understanding of the human body and its chemistry.
Mr Foster is outstanding! He gives excellent advice and often has great guests on his radio programs.
