“Changing my diet took getting used to, but it was worth it to save my health,” says Heather
Heather Wilson lay in her bed, unable to move. Please make this pain go away, she prayed as another horrific headache took hold. Heather’s suffering began in 2017, when she started getting severe hives, along with debilitating headaches, fatigue and cycles of vomiting and digestive issues.

Unsatisfied, Heather declined prescriptions, but as months passed, she grew weary of trying over-the-counter creams, digestive aids and pain relievers that failed to offer relief.
