Dr.
Lynn Tan, a co-founder of NewLife International,
was a vibrant and energetic young lady when she was
young. She excelled in sports and on many occasions,
represented her State in many athletic games. But at
the age of nineteen, her health broke down; nobody could
fathom why this was happening.
She
began feeling ill and tired easily. The days when she
used to be so active had become memories of the past.
The demands of a teaching career, marriage, and the
birth of two children, soon took their toll. She found
herself growing weaker by the day. She became easily
irritated and as a result, found herself losing her
temper on her students. It was then that she decided
to quit teaching. She said, "I just couldn't let
them be my punching bags." As her physical condition
deteriorated, she found herself sleeping or just lying
in bed more and more each day.
Witnessing this was her husband, Mr. C.K. Tan, who took
her to see many doctors in Malaysia and Singapore. Medically,
none of them could find anything wrong with her. Soon,
chasing doctors became a frustrating experience. "It
came to a point where I was longing to be told that
I had a particular disease because then, my frustration
and depression caused by not knowing what was wrong
with me would end," she said.
Then
one day, a miracle occurred. Her family met Dr. Costa
Deir, a visiting preacher at their church. They offered
to house Dr. Costa for that visit. To her delight, Dr.
Deir was a medical doctor and a naturopath, who held
several Ph.D.s. He diagnosed her weakened condition
as toxemia, or poisons, throughout her body.
Dr. Lynn
began taking steps to detoxify her body and followed
commonsensical principles like "Let food be your
medicine, and medicine your food." Within just
a few months, she realized that her body had become
vibrant and healthy. Grateful for the change in her,
Dr. Lynn embarked on an intensive research into Natural
Health; as she did so, her vision to bless others with
the knowledge of total health was conceived.
Today,
Dr. Lynn Tan devotes her time to sharing with others
this wonderful crusade of health and natural healing.
This vision has become to many their anchor to a healthier
life, a revitalized body, and a renewed mind.
