Healing from Chronic Illness Resources

It took 3 years, 9 months, and 1 day… from moving into an apartment that had black mold, to finally getting my functional tests back, which provided a very clear diagnosis. That was in December of 2023, and I’ve spent every day since healing holistically, coming fully back to myself.

That’s why I’ve organized the full list of tests, supplements, books, and tools that have been taking on my healing journey.

In regards to the supplements, these were all recommended by my functional medicine doctor, and are customized for my healing protocol. This is not medical advice. This is intended for educational purposes only. Please consult with your doctor before beginning any protocol.
