TH📣HOW I GOT OFF MEDS👇🏻
When I was diagnosed with Crohn’s I was told:
1. There is no cure
2. You will need medication for the rest of your life
❌After quickly cycling through Apriso, Pentasa, Humira, Prednisone, Cimzia, I was put on Remicade
❌My insurance wasn’t a fan of the $11,000 cost for my first infusion + denied coverage for it
I felt hopeless. My joints were so inflamed I could barely walk, I was starting to lose my vision + I was eating an extremely restricted diet
In this period of desperation, I came across @nutritionschool that teaches Integrative Holistic Nutrition, a component of Functional Medicine in which the body is treated as one whole system vs individualized parts, and addresses root cause vs symptom management
I signed up. I went deep learning everything I could about Crohn’s, Gut Health, the Mind Body Connection, Holistic Healing + Radical Remission
📣Within 3 months of incorporating what I was learning on myself, all of my symptoms were gone
📣Within 6 months, I was able to stop all of my medications
✨Now, I’m a Certified Holistic Nutrition Coach specialized in Gut Health, I help other Crohn’s + IBD Warriors achieve Holistic Remission to get off meds
