Dr. Gudrun’s N.D., love for natural health started as a young child. She grew up in a small town in the Rocky Mountains called Kalispell, Montana. This facilitated her close relationship with nature. She was always fascinated with plants and trees. As a teen she took survival courses and studied how indigenous people around the world embraced nature. She attended undergrad in Santa Fe, New Mexico where she received a bachelor of science degree in biology and chemistry. She began her career at a genetic engineering laboratory, cloning genes to use in toxicology testing for large pharmaceutical companies.

Her first hand experience in pharmaceutical research helped her to become adept at discerning the qualities of legitimate scientific literature and research. She left her career in genetic engineering and began working in natural pharmacies and herbal dispensaries. Her studies continued in Santa Fe where she worked for several local herbalists growing herbs and food, making tinctures, natural cosmetics and therapeutic products for market. Her interests took her across the globe to Nepal, India, Japan, Mexico and Ireland.
