I developed bronchitis 15 times throughout the next several years, not recognizing that sugar damages your digestive tract. In addition, I was also taking antibiotics 1-2 times per year for bronchitis, which created significant digestive issues. But this didn’t stop me from eating sugar.
By my late teens and early twenties, I was a sugar addict. I loved sugar; I craved it all the time. As a result, I suffered from low energy, acne, digestion issues, and mood swings.
I spent three years trying to figure out how to improve these symptoms, but it wasn’t until I sought a nutritionist and Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner that I received answers. I found out I had a leaky gut, as well as gluten and dairy sensitivities. I spent some time cleansing and healing my gut, and for the first time, I found relief. Yet, amazingly, not once did my medical doctor talk with me about my diet.
As I continued to improve my diet and use supportive supplementation, I continued to rid myself of all my symptoms. Due to the fantastic results I received, I became fascinated by holistic health and how to heal the body naturally through whole foods and supplementation. I read everything I could get my hands on and attended lectures and workshops to gain further knowledge.
It’s been a long journey, and to this day, I am constantly learning and finding new ways to improve my health and now others that I work with. I have helped hundreds of people lose weight, lower their cholesterol, control blood sugar levels, gain more energy, improve sleep, and have a healthy relationship with food, and I want to do the same for you.
Remember, if you don’t make time for wellness, you’ll be forced to make time for illness.
