Memorable Moments:
\u201dWe pushed back against medicine for the longest time, and finally my husband and I felt like we had no other choice\u2026.Then, the side effects started\u2026I felt hopeless.\u201d
\u201dIt has been a life-changer. It has been an absolutely night-and-day life-changer for him, for our family dynamic, for the relationship with him and his friends, like all the way from A to Z. It\u2019s just been absolutely phenomenal.\u201d
\u201dWe were living on Miralax\u2026and the pediatrician just kept saying, \u2018Just keep giving it to him to make him regular. Keep giving him Miralax\u2026' Within a week of starting this diet and things\u2026I haven\u2019t given him any Miralax. Zero.\u201d
\u201dWithin a week of stopping - especially the gluten, dairy, soy - within a week of stopping those and starting the supplement program and things, he was going on a regular basis and not complaining of stomach aches anymore.\u201d
\u201dI was very overwhelmed at first\u2026but I would do it a million times over again\u2026It may seem impossible or very difficult at the front end but the results\u2026It\u2019s an absolute no-brainer.\u201d
\u201dYour team did an amazing job coming up with those supplements to fill his\u2026nutritional gaps in his body\u2026And the one-on-one coaching calls, I can\u2019t tell you how much that helped me\u2026\u201d
\u201dI always felt like we were walking on eggshells then, but I don\u2019t feel that way anymore\u2026.He\u2019s just a totally different kid.\u201d
\u201dNothing is more important than making sure you\u2019re putting your best foot forward for your child and giving them a chance at life\u2026a chance without medication\u2026a chance with no side effects and a chance to really just live.\u201d
\u201dIt has been an absolute transformation for our family to just be able to up and go\u2026It has made our family dynamic so much happier.\u201d
\u201dSurround yourself with people that support you.\u201d
