Dr. Robin Saraswati Markus, DAOM, L.Ac., MTOM, E-RYT,
recommends the USANA Nutritionals for Optimal Health
Founder of Nourishing Life, a Doctor of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, post-graduate educator, and retreat-facilitator, Dr. Markus enthusiastically shares her ideas about optimal nutrition for fertility and longevity, based on her more than 15 years of practice with women and couple’s who are trying to get pregnant. She is a known expert in the field of Yang Sheng: The ancient Chinese science of longevity, and uses these principles and treatments shifting reproductive lifespan and encouraging healthy, authentic aging in woman and men.
Dr. Markus uses traditional and modern nutritional therapy including Chinese constitutional typing, five flavors balance, appropriate cleansing and detoxification, combined with modern medicine’s contribution of powerful nutritional supplements.
A healthy diet, restorative sleep, and stress management are cornerstone of a healthy life. The ability to eat fresh, local, organic foods is my first health goal with patients. But this is often unsustainable and time consuming. Dr. Markus suggests using a combination of both fresh foods and nutritional supplements to help reach the optimal health and nutritional status needed to promote longevity, healthy aging, fertility, pregnancy and birth.
Dr. Markus uses telemedicine for an individual patient consultation, teaches intensive workshops on the subjects of Gynecology and Longevity to practitioners of Chinese medicine and Yoga, and she holds patient retreats to help women reclaim and revitalize their health and fertility.

Nourishing Life:
Where Health Meets Consciousness
Nourishing Life is a fertility and longevity institute rooted in the Chinese practices of Yang Sheng (The Nourishment of Life). Our main focus has been the restoration of reproductive vigor and fertility enhancement, employing Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) married with Yogic, Taoist and Buddhist paradigms and practices, to provide all-embracing attention to healing body, mind and spirit. Specifically promoting the cultivation of the Three Treasures of jing (reproductive energy), qi (life-force energy) and shen (spiritual energy) we fertilize the ground for healthy, authentic living and aging in women and men.
We treat the full range of women in the first phase and second phases of reproduction, women with marked physical Western medicine gynecological disorders, as well as women who are having difficulty conceiving for unknown and unexplained reasons. We even have very good success with disorders that Western medicine views as unchangeable such as poor ovarian reserve and endometriosis.
We specialize in Yang Sheng: The ancient Chinese science of longevity. This medicine has a very particular view of what causes aging and how we can prevent it. Yang Sheng therapy is involved in understanding how to propagate, conserve, or spend our vital internal resources and energy. Learning how to carefully and skillfully conserve while optimally cultivating energy and life force is our practice goal.
