My Bactini Story
Why believe in me or Gutfirst?
I was dependent on prescription drugs !
Hello everyone, this is my story feel free to share, it may help someone 🖤
I began my journey as a Holistic Nutritional Therapist after a very dark period in my life. I had a bad accident when I was 32 years old and was in severe pain, my two young children, just needed the fun Mum they had always relied on, for bike rides and all the crazy fun days, that we took for granted before the accident, and so I took the advice of my Consultant and began my journey with prescription drugs ! After all they needed their Mum not a invalid with a leg brace ! First of all I was able to get some relief and do all the stuff I wanted and needed to do, but my body demanded more medication to relieve the constant pain and so I was given more and more medication ! To get rid of more and more symptoms ! High blood pressure, water retention and finally kidney failure ☹ After the sudden death of my precious Mum 🖤 I looked took over looking after my Dad, whilst he was gong through hell, he was on chemotherapy for lung cancer, very sadly he died the same year 🖤 it was at this point that I lost my last bit of fight, looking back I must have been severely depressed, although I tried my best to act otherwise🙂 I was put on more drugs! for depression and to help with my sleep and anxiety, I wasn't living anymore at this point, I wasn't Jan! I was just existing. I pretended everyday and got through it the best way I could, only after my knee replacement, did I realize how much my body needed the drugs, I had to find my inner Jan to get through the darkest days and nights of my life! It took over 6 months to ween myself off the medication, including Oxycontin approximately 300mg a day ! It took every bit of strength I possessed, to fight the cravings and withdrawal symptoms, and the symptoms I encountered from coming off all the other prescription drugs! But when I did, I felt like Peter Kay had turned on the big light ! Not in my front room 😂 In my life ! I'm glad it happened because you learn so much more from struggling and failure than you do from success. Now I can help others. I believe that our wonderful human body has the innate ability to heal itself, given the right care! Mine did !! I didn't have medication to help with my withdrawal from drugs, I went back to basics and cleansed and healed my gut and took lots of beneficial supplements, I made sure I ate good nutritional food, I took long walks, I was mindful, I used breathing techniques to calm the anxiety and cravings, and music really helped ! I nurtured myself and my body has repaid me, I have regained my crazy sense of humor and I have the energy of a 20 year old ! I officially passed my exam a couple of years ago, but I have been reading about Holistic health since my day's as a store Manager for Holland and Barrett, over 30 years ago ! I actually couldn't find the raw beneficial products I required and recommend, so I made my own 🤗 Bactini was born and my mission began to spread the word!
I want everyone to be the best they can and deserve to be !
I nearly always consider a patient with chronic symptoms, by first addressing their gut, as all DISEASE begins there and it is where about 80% of your immune system originates !
Gutfirst takes into consideration you as a WHOLE, that's your EMOTIONS, NUTRITION AND BASIC EXCERCISE AND MOBILITY 👍 Even small steps in the right direction can be life changing! when done consistently ! XX
