011. The Cause of Suzanne's Flare Ups? Overeating!

In this powerful interview with integrative nutrition and gut health coach, Suzanne Myers, we discuss what she believes were the causes of her flare ups as well as her 3 biggest tips for healing!

Suzanne shares that her first 4 months were agonizing (truly it was the first 9 months). She did not use any doctors help, but rather, did this journey on her own.

She shares her fall back and regression around/after the holidays. Suzanne got MRSA and, her words, 'thought she was going to die,' it was so bad.

Her 3 Biggest Tips:

• HYDRATE. This is imperative. High water content meals (good lean organic protein and having 70/30%. 70% vegetarian, and 30% protein, good fats)
• TREAT YOURSELF. She took a 3 month trip by herself. "I ate when I was hungry. The more we eat it stressed our digestive system out."
• ELECTROLYTES. She suggests an organic powder without fructose for additional support.

What she believes causes flare ups?

-Overeating!

Jen: What was your lowest point?

Suzanne: When I had the shivers, was hot and cold non stop, oozing, bleeding, always exhausted - no sleep. This all lasted for 3 months to 5 months.

Jen: Any words of wisdom to give our audience?

Suzanne: Give yourself the love. Don't blame yourself. Time heals. It's not any one thing alone, it's a collection of things. Never make the comparison of you to someone else. — take this time for yourself. Give yourself permission to do whatever It takes. You are in this journey.
