Her personal functional medicine journey has included small intestinal bacterial overgrowth(SIBO), fungal/candida overgrowth (SIFO), imbalance gut bacteria, food intolerances, and nutritional deficiencies. Her daughter also experienced imbalanced gut bacteria (which lead to nighttime bedwetting), food intolerances and allergies, and eczema. With functional medicine approaches, the gut imbalances, food intolerances, and eczema were corrected. It’s been a journey over the last 5 years, but she wouldn’t change it for anything, these experiences have shaped her career and allowed her to help more patients achieve true wellness and reverse symptoms.
