Let’s face it – when it comes to taking care of your health, financial investments are part of the territory. In health, the same as taking care of anything valuable, there are costs: money, time, and effort. And the same as investing in anything else, you always AIM to find the diamond in the rough. Yet – sometimes all you get is a lemon!
According to research, 10-15% of pregnancies end in miscarriage. That means that for about every 1 in 10 pregnancies, one ends up in miscarriage. It, however, does not mean that 1 in 10 women will experience a miscarriage. As of now in the US, 80% of child-bearing women have more than one child. So – while 1 in 10 of known pregnancies end in miscarriage, researchers estimate that as many as 1 in 3 women have a miscarriage.
There’s ONE question to ask to know if you have a pathogen. This question is a good litmus test if you’re wondering if you have a parasite, bacterial overgrowth, H. Pylori, Candida, C.

If they had the tools and the power to solve that problem in chapter 1, it would make for a very short book! The problem would be solved, and our hero would go back to their life. The truth is, the hero story resides in our hearts because we identify with the hero when we have a problem that can’t be solved.
I recently had a friend of mine tell me that she had bought a product to detox heavy metals in her body. Our conversation reminded me of the importance of an episode on heavy metals and things to know BEFORE detoxing them! So, WHO needs a heavy metal detox? Everyone!
Have you ever said this to yourself or to a friend? Despite all my efforts, I feel worse and worse. I’m doing “all the right things,” and no matter what – I don’t feel better. Before all this – exercise and being intentional with my diet made me feel better. Now – it has NO impact or makes me feel worse. If so, you are like many of my clients. These are things that I REGULARLY hear when I start working with my clients. Once you get sick enough, there seems to be no correlation between effort and results. Yet – we’re tempted to either work even harder in our health or just give up completely (because hey, it’s not helping anyways).
Have you been put on an elimination diet? Are you unable to reintroduce foods (no matter how long you’ve been on your diet) without your symptoms flaring up? Do you feel your symptoms flare up even when you’re being strict with your diet? If you answered yes to any of the above questions, tune in!
OMG! Yes, I need this!
