#37: Why you must look BEYOND GP's. It's not in your head.

11 Aug

I’ll never forget the years where I was made to feel like an idiot.

I would visit multiple GP’s and gut specialists (gastroenterologists), only to leave feeling disheartened, confused and frustrated.

I spent 2-3 years searching for answers to my low energy, chronic gut issues (bloating and constipation) and got no where!

Until I finally met the right integrative / functional medicine doctor who did the RIGHT tests and diagnosed me with an imbalance of gut bacteria and multiple food sensitivities. Things that a GP or specialist doctor just wouldn’t test…

I used this, together with the knowledge I had acquired from my Bachelor of Science Nutrition degree that I had just finished, and the years of my own personal research, to eat in a way that healed my gut concerns.

I thought I would have to live with the pain and discomfort forever… but now, I am healed and I have to continue to help women move beyond the “by the book” doctors too.

If you are serious about getting to the bottom of YOUR health concerns, I really need to encourage you to dig deeper and go beyond your GPs, even your specialists. They’re not trained in Nutrition, and the world of the gut microbiome is new science too - science in which so many just don’t bother to look at or consider.

This podcast is for you if you feel like you’ve exhausted all avenues and you need more answers too.

You deserve to feel optimal, and this podcast will take you one step further in showing you HOW that’s possible.
