"I was diagnosed with Systemic Lupus in 2008.

For 12 years I was in and out of hospital, on extreme medication which at one point made all of my hair fall out and caused a whole host of other issues and side effects. I had chronic skin rashes every time sunlight touched my skin, I got UTI’s monthly, I was constantly exhausted – napping everyday, had chronic nausea to the point of being bed ridden at times, got vasculitis so bad that I couldn’t walk as my feet and lower legs were so blistered and painful… and so, so much more! In short, I just wasn’t living and in some desperate moments I wished I would just hurry up and die.

For over a decade I searched for a cure daily. I purchased every natural supplement that promised improvement, tried every diet and juice and water fasts. I tried veganism, paleo AIP, homeopathy, naturopathy, acupuncture and numerous other treatments. Nothing had worked. Deep down though, I knew my body had the ability to heal itself.
