Jameth Sheridan and Kim Sheridan are respected Naturopaths, health researchers, nutritional consultants, product developers, writers, public speakers, and teachers. They co-founded HealthForce Nutritionals with a mission to provide highly researched, select products and services that really make a difference in people's health.

Beginning with a background in traditional college nutrition, Jameth and Kim have explored multiple aspects of health, healing, and regeneration. They have been trained and/or certified in many modalities of health and health assessment, including nutrition, biology/microbiology, detoxification, herbology, reflexology, iridology, Rayid Analysis, Natural Hygiene, Ann Wigmore programs, Body Electronics, various methods of body typing and live blood cell analysis, as well as additional full spectrum health studies. For over twenty years, they have devoted themselves to the search for true health and truly exceptional products for health and well-being. They have made themselves the "guinea pigs" in their search for optimum health, and they have traveled all over the country (accessing information from around the world) on this vitally important quest.

Jameth and Kim are respected nutritional consultants whose advice is sought by many. Their client list includes a number of medical doctors and registered nNurses (many of whom purchase products from them regularly, and some who also provide these products to their own patients). Jameth and Kim are also popular public speakers and workshop leaders. They originally gained popularity through their highly acclaimed "Uncooking with Jameth and Kim" healthy food preparation classes and their classic book with the same title. They have been popular guest chefs at Hippocrates Health Institute in West Palm Beach, Florida, and their original recipe ideas have influenced many books as well as the menus of many restaurants and health institutes. Now the focus of their research is on all aspects of health, regeneration, and cutting-edge nutrition.

Jameth and Kim have studied many health products in-depth to see if the content, quality and performance of the products match the claims (which they often don't). Dissatisfied with the amount of health products that haven't lived up to their claims (and often do harm as well), they have taken several companies to task, acting as consumer advocates for the large numbers of people who all-too-often throw away tremendous amounts of money in vain for the sake of health. Based on their findings, they have learned how to create exceptionally effective, unique nutritional supplements with no toxicity! They sincerely want everyone to experience optimum health, and they have fully dedicated their lives to this pursuit.

Their goal is to provide true health with true integrity, and to spread the message of health and hope to the masses. Not satisfied with an overwhelmingly and unnecessarily unhealthy population (often due to ignorance as well as vested interests), they truly desire to enable as many people as possible to take charge of their own health. They continue to research, develop and improve unique nutritional supplements and other products to make the world a healthier and happier place.

Update:

After many years of working together, Jameth continues to dedicate all his hours to HealthForce, while Kim has changed career paths. Her time is now dedicated to many other projects, including her book, "Animals and the Afterlife™: True Stories of Our Best Friends' Journey Beyond Death."

Where did the name Sheridan come from?
When we first met in 1990, we decided we were going to choose a joint last name when we got married, instead of taking on the man's last name as is common in our culture and goes back to when men owned women. We were not satisfied with simply adopting either of our existing last names or hyphenating them. Whose last name would we adopt? In what order would the names be hyphenated? Traditionally, the man's name is taken and the woman forsakes hers, or she hyphenates hers along with her husband's. The husband's name stays the same and he does not hyphenate the names, even if his wife does, thereby carrying on the patriarchal tradition. None of these scenarios felt right for us.

We wanted a last name that was reflective of who we are, just as last names were when they originally came into being. We also wanted a last name that symbolized our partnership. We intended to choose our new last name before we got married and to include it in the ceremony. However, when we did get married, we had not yet come up with a name that felt right to us.   So, for the time being, we just kept our existing last names. We then put out the intention of finding a last name that symbolized our partnership (and made it clear that we were married), and we investigated various systems of naming over the years.  Eventually, we elected not to adhere to any existing system but rather to choose a name that just felt right to us. After much consideration, the name that felt the most right was Sheridan. This name has personal meaning for both of us.

We eliminated our former last names years ago, as they both symbolized a limited patriarchal lineage that never takes into account the women in any family.  People are accustomed to women changing their last names to symbolize marriage, so why not a man and a woman doing so together, for the same reason? For us, this represents a true partnership.

Also, after much consideration, Jameth changed his first name in the summer of 2001. Prior to that he was known as "Jamey." Jamey served him well when he was a child, but many years have passed since he was a child. Tommy often grows up to become Tom, Billy to Bill or William, Kimmy to Kim, Timmy to Tim, Bobby to Bob or Robert, Johnny to John, etc. Jamey has no clear adult equivalent. Jameth did call himself "James" briefly; a fine name indeed, but it did not fit for him. Thus, the name "Jameth" was born.
