Repairing the gut & detox pathways is essential for overall health. The medical community agrees that a damaged gut or inability to process toxins can influence everything from ADHD to depression to joint pain and fatigue, up to dementia, autoimmune diseases & allergies. The largest nerve in your body runs from the gut to the brain (vagus nerve), this is now known as the “highway” of nutrients to our brains. If we are transporting garbage from our mouth, into the gut, that goes to the brain. The brain and bacteria in our guts work together through this highway to control hormone balance (from menopause to fat storage to food cravings), mental health (from depression and anxiety to memory and motivation) and physical health (aches/pains, delayed healing, upset stomachs, skin blemishes etc.). When the body is not getting what it needs, the gut/brain connection generates tons of signals to the body to “fix me” such as fibromyalgia, anxiety, lack of interest, constipation/loose stool, trouble sleeping and on, and on.
The medical industry will have you believe these are all separate problems that each need their own solution but this is far from the truth, and is only a way for pharmaceutical companies to continue making trillions of dollars while you stay sick. Have you ever really been cured by a pharmaceutical? Or just good enough until something else came up? It is a band-aid system. After you take an antibiotic, you get stomach aches when eating… why? Because you do not have the good bacteria anymore to help you digest/absorb your food.
Functional medicine, what I am sharing with you here, is a cure. It harnesses the power and science of your own body, to heal itself.
Through my programs, you will be challenged to make many changes to your life. This isn’t a diet or a temporary fix, this is a lifestyle adjustment. Take that honor and do what you need to take care of yourself. I am here to guide and support you, but you are ultimately in control of what happens.
