Gut-Wise Grace
Conquering Ulcerative Colitis
Grace, a 45-year-old professional, came to us at her breaking point. For years, she had battled ulcerative colitis that stubbornly refused to respond to traditional treatments. Despite being on immune-modulating medications and cortisone, her symptoms persisted—chronic loose stools, unrelenting fatigue, low iron levels, and poor sleep. Adding to her struggles, Grace dealt with depression, which made her uphill battle even harder.
Her health history revealed early childhood trauma and mold exposure, adding layers of complexity to her case. Determined to regain her health, Grace came to us ready to try a different path.
Step 1: Uncovering the Root Causes
Through comprehensive testing, we identified the factors driving Grace’s symptoms:
- Salivary Hormone Testing: Showed low progesterone and high cortisol, reflecting a body stuck in chronic stress mode.
- Mycotoxin Testing: Confirmed mold toxins were contributing to inflammation and fatigue.
- Comprehensive Stool Analysis: Revealed severe gut dysbiosis and a hidden bacterial infection fueling her digestive distress and fatigue.
These results provided the clarity we needed to address her unique challenges.
Step 2: A Comprehensive Treatment Plan
With a full picture of Grace’s health, we developed a personalized treatment plan tailored to her needs. It included:
- Compassionate Inquiry Therapy: Helping Grace address early trauma and reduce its impact on her body.
- Cortisol Balancing: Using adaptogenic herbal formulas to support her stress response.
- Bioidentical Hormones: To restore hormonal balance and improve her energy.
- Advanced Nutritional Support: A targeted protocol to replenish deficiencies, support gut healing, and combat fatigue.
- Mycotoxin Detoxification: Safely eliminating mold toxins to ease her inflammatory burden.
Grace committed to the plan with determination and followed through with remarkable consistency.
The Transformation
Grace’s dedication paid off, and the changes were profound:
- Her bowel movements normalized, putting an end to years of chronic loose stools.
- Her energy returned, giving her the ability to fully enjoy her work and personal life.
- Her sleep improved significantly, helping her wake up refreshed and ready to take on the day.
- Her mood lifted, and she regained the confidence to embrace her life again.
She successfully weaned off her pharmaceutical treatments under medical supervision and now manages her ulcerative colitis by understanding her body’s needs and triggers. Grace describes the transformation as “like night and day” and continues her journey with a newfound sense of control and empowerment.
