Continued Healing with Nutrition and Supplements

Continued Healing with Nutrition and Supplements
As I have stated in previous posts, I’m thankful to have the opportunity to see a functional doctor I love and listen to wholeheartedly. She listened to me, sent me all the lab and genetic tests, submitted them, and she consulted with me and suggested eating a paleo diet and taking the supplements I’m about to share with you.
After weeks of taking the Candida supplement, my doctor gave me a prescription to help eradicate my continuing candida problem. She is a board-certified MD, so she practices both traditional and non-traditional medicine.
Before I get to the individual supplements I’m taking, I’d like to report that I’m feeling my metabolism is in much better working order and I can even tell my brain is functioning at a higher level again. It’s been a short journey to feel so much better. I’m currently at month 8 on my transition back to optimum health after a hard two years of declining health and immobility.

My Celiac Journey Unfolds

My Celiac Journey Unfolds

Yep, I have Celiac Disease! After reading my previous post, you may be asking, how did I not know I had severe gut issues?  Every person with gluten issues has different experiences.  Some people vomit or have to run to the bathroom, and there is a long list of general symptoms, but my primary response is fatigue.  I became accustomed to a daily nap after lunch.  My days were shorter than most people's because I required more sleep. It's been a blessing that I can choose my work hours!

My recent diagnosis...doesn't define me

My recent diagnosis...doesn't define me
I hesitated to do it, but I needed to feel better!  My energy and stamina were slowly robbed, and feeling sluggish had become a normal feeling.  Even after resting for over a year and letting knee injuries heal, I knew I had to seek help beyond the traditional medicine I had been relying on for years. I was barely making it through the day without a long nap.

It's a pleasure help conscientious people find information and gain confidence, energy and live a vibrant life.

Meet Shawn Constant

 
Hello, friend!  

Here's a snapshot of me:

I'm an extrovert wife to an introvert engineer, mama to a beautiful, talented young woman & fur mom to two small dogs in a small Texas town.

I have been emerging as a healthier, new person after the pandemic and being diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder on top of my PCOS.  It's been a gut wrenching (pun intended) journey and I'm thankful for my transition into a more holistic lifestyle 6 years ago, since I've been lowering my body's toxic load.  

I enjoy crafting, saving pins on Pinterest and DIYing with non-toxic ingredients.  I'm a great cook and am learning to cook Gluten-Free and make some killer smoothies. 

My faith is my foundation and am thankful to have had it this past year.  

Fun facts:  I'm an outgoing Enneagram 2 with a strong 1 wing.  I'm an ESFJ.  My love languages are acts of service and gifts.  I'm a kinesthetic learning who loves listening to audiobooks.

Feel free to peruse my website and I'd love to connect with you on my social media! I mostly post on Facebook and Instagram. Shawn's Oily Testimonies @shawnsoilytestimonies. I'm getting good at REELS and enjoy styling photos for them!
