E024: Using Food + Supplements instead of medicine to heal
In this episode, Kathy Ashton shares her story about discovering how the food she was eating was exacerbating her fibromyalgia. Then her husband was diagnosed with MS, and the drugs caused depression and made him feel like crap so he stopped taking them. He’d remembered Kathy’s success in healing herself by changing her diet, and he asked her to go back to school to learn about this, to help him heal! And she did, and now they have a family business creating supplements from whole foods at therapeutic doses to help the body heal. Her husband has since gone and done the same degree, and their son works the business with them, as it was his idea as a child to stop using supplements full of fillers, but make their own from food to help his Dad heal! So they did and now they sell these supplements to help others.
