For more than 10 years, Rachel's symptoms had only gotten worse — IBS, GERD, PMS, asthma, and anxiety. Her PMS alone meant "period flu" for 7–10 days every month. She was tired of doing the only thing she'd been offered: treating each symptom with another prescription. She wanted someone to find the why.
I finally connected the dots with the right testing. Her GI-MAP flagged a pathogenic E. coli, an H. pylori overgrowth, active gut inflammation, and gluten reactivity. Her bloodwork added the rest: low zinc, low vitamin D, and thyroid markers sitting at the very bottom of range — a body running low on what it needed.
Working alongside her doctor, we reduced her medications by treating the gut bacteria that were driving her histamine up — the same histamine fueling her reflux and allergy symptoms. As her gut settled, the restrictive diet she'd been living on opened back up, and she was eating dairy again for the first time in years. Food was the primary "treatment," with supplements playing a clear, purposeful role. And we kept supporting her gut and nutrients with one more goal in mind — helping her get pregnant. She did.
Within a couple of months she felt significantly better. Almost a year later:
"Working with Gina is the single greatest investment I've made in my health. After 10+ years of worsening IBS, GERD, PMS, asthma, and anxiety, I was tired of just treating symptoms with more prescriptions. Using personalized testing, she helped me address the root causes and drastically cut the medications I'm on. Almost a year later, I no longer have IBS, GERD, or PMS symptoms, my asthma is drastically improved, and I'm eating dairy again for the first time in years. Food was the primary treatment — and she taught me how to care for my body."
If you've been told your labs are "normal" but you still feel off, let's find what they missed.
