After almost 2 decades of struggling with her health after being diagnosed with Crohn’s disease, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Diabetes and cancer, she found healing through Functional Medicine. She has now successfully been free of medications and symptoms since 2015.
Amber and I both recently finished our studies at The School of Applied Functional Medicine, and this episode is a breakdown of our biggest takeaways as we dive deep into the world of functional medicine, autoimmune diseases, and the impact of stress and trauma on health. Amber shares their personal journey of being diagnosed with multiple autoimmune diseases and the frustrations of not receiving the necessary information to understand her condition.
Together, we explore the importance of thorough lab testing, including markers often overlooked in autoimmune diseases and mental health. Additionally, we discuss the rising trend of younger individuals experiencing illnesses traditionally seen in older age groups. Amber also shares her expertise in gut health and the fascinating insights gained from using the GI Map test to address various health issues.
