Inflammation and Autoimmunity

  • Do you have an overall sense of not feeling your best and it’s become your “normal”?
  • Are you exhausted? Frequently sick?  Chronic aches and pains?
  • Do you feel like being diagnosed with an autoimmune disease is a lifetime sentence of feeling bad?

Hashimotos. Graves Disease. Rheumatoid arthritis. And many more. Perhaps you are one of the millions suffering and not knowing what to do. I assist you in using nutrition to help support your immune system in your journey toward better health.

The Facts

Autoimmune disease is now an epidemic, affecting over 23 million people in this country, with an annual healthcare cost of $120 billion —  and the numbers are growing.  People who have one autoimmune condition are more likely to contract another.  While factors such as genetic susceptibility, environmental triggers and intestinal impermeability may contribute to autoimmunity, we know that autoimmune conditions are connected by one central thing – a runaway-immune response that results in your body attacking its own tissues.

My Approach:

With a functional nutrition approach, we work together toward making positive change in inflammation levels and supporting your immune system’s natural healing process.

We identify which foods may be helping, which foods may be risky; how to support your gut; and optimize your liver’s natural healing ability.  I also work with you on simple lifestyle changes and supplements that can make a big difference in wellness.  Together, we create your own personal plan.  It is possible for you to feel better.  Don’t give up hope!  And don’t wait for it to get worse before using nutritional support.  

“As someone who has personally suffered with an autoimmune disease, I know your struggle. My passion to help others comes from my own experience. At a particularly stressful time in my life, I was diagnosed with both Graves and Hashimotos autoimmune thyroid disease. Needless to say, I existed on a roller coaster ride – alternating between hyper and hypo thyroidism – feeling sluggish and then “tired” but wired. I was alternately on thyroid suppressant drugs and thryoid supplemental hormones. These medications were good bridges to control my symptoms – But WHY was this happening in the first place?  Why was my body so out of balance? Could I get it back into balance?  This began my journey to heal myself. It took time and effort but today I feel healthier and more energetic; take no medications at all, and my antibodies for Hashimotos are completely gone.”
