Meet Sarah, a 65-year-old woman complaining of fatigue, gained 30 pounds in the last two years had poor concentration, dry, itchy skin, and her hair was falling out every time she brushed it. Indigestion, hot flashes, tingling in her lower legs. Her doctor did do more than the usual tests and found out that her body was making antibodies that were attacking the tissue of her thyroid gland, she was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. She also had sinusitis, esophageal reflux, difficulty swallowing, and trouble staying asleep.
Nine months later. Her energy was 30% better. Skin improving. Lost 40 pounds. Concentration better. No more hair loss. Digestion better. Not long after that, or energy and concentration we’re fine. She was maintaining her optimal weight. And had no more problems with digestion. Most nights she’s sleeping through the night just fine.
