The start of a new adventure...

I have been on a health roller coaster for the past few years in search of trying to feel healthy. Over the years I have been to different doctors who have never been able to figure out what is wrong or how to make me feel better. Frustrated I turned to a Naturopathic Doctor who was extremely helpful but all the supplements I had to take was very expensive and I still wasn't seeing the results I was looking for. It wasn't until I started working with a Registered Holistic Nutritionist (RHN) that I learned these supplements still weren't addressing the root cause of my health issues and that eating the right foods would help my body heal itself.

Over the next 8 months my body did start to heal itself and so many symptoms started disappearing! When I first started changing my diet my symptom list was long:
- constant horrible nausea
- hypoglycemia 
- constipation
- bloating
- burping after meals
- frequent colds
- fatigue
- frequent headaches
- horrible period cramps
- always feeling cold
- lightheaded & dizziness
- acne
- moderate candida, low pancreatic enzymes, low gut SIgA, food intolerances (all diagnosed by testing through my Naturopathic Doctor)

So many of those are much better or completely gone, such as:
- every winter I would have a cold the WHOLE DARN WINTER...this past winter, no cold! Not even a sore throat or a sniffle!
 - I use to take gravol like they were candies and now I can't even remember the last time I took one!
 - I went from being curled up in a ball with my heating pad, popping tylenol when my period started to not needing a heating pad or any tylenol!

AMAZING!!!

I have decided to enroll in a distance program to become a Registered Holistic Nutritionist. I can't wait to start helping people!
