A little About Me
Not being able to move at the end of a work meeting was the real starting point for me to admit something was not right.
I was so stiff & sore, the only way I could move was making small movements to warm my body up - daring only to get up once everyone had left the meeting, not wanting to let anyone see me struggle (thus have to explain what was wrong with me which at this point I had no idea what it was!)
I started to educate myself, take responsibility for my own health & wellbeing & retrained as a Hormone Health Coach with a focus on Gut Health
I Suffered with:
Joint Pain
Sore Muscles
Chronic ulcers & cysts
Exhaustion
Cystic Acne that wouldn't budge
Bloating & Cramping
After years of being moved from specialist to specialist...
...... & Department to department I was finally diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disease (Bechets).
​
I was then prescribed:
Steroids & NSAIDS (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) to ease me of my pains & symptoms........
BUT…. They didn’t help – in fact it made the problem worse.
​
Fed up of being on medications that weren't working
Not wanting to be on pills for the rest of my life
Frustrated that the only offers available to me by my (well meaning) doctors was medications.
​
I decided to take a different approach
According to Greek physician Hippocrates nearly 2,500yrs ago
"All Disease Begins in the Gut"
& that was true for me with my Autoimmune Disease
Fast Forward a few years......
I am Symptom & medication free (no more Steroids or NSAIDS)
Don't get me wrong, if my sleep is poor, eat something that doesn't agree with me or if I have a lot on and feel the stress building up I can feel my body reacting - so I STOP..... re assess and listen to my body & what it needs
So what did I do to become symptom & med free?
Kill & reduced the bad bugs (pathogens) in my gut to strengthen my gut lining
Repopulate & restore to balance the good bacteria in my gut
Maintain & Sustain my Gut Integrity & Health as I educated myself on what
DIRECTLY affects Gut Health so I understand how to manage going forward
What are you waiting for? Ready to get started?
My Philosophy
Being Pain Free & happy should be the standard for all - not the select few
The best advocate for yourself is you! Be accountable for your own Health & take steps to regain control of your gut health so you can feel like your old self again
Don't wait for your health to deteriorate before you take steps - act now!
