Off Blood Pressure Meds and Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)
DR. REESE: Maria, you're off your blood pressure medication now?
MARIA: 100%
DR. REESE: Wow.
MARIA: And off the HRTs.
DR. REESE: HRTs gone. Wow. Finally.
MARIA: I'm completely off of everything and could not be happier.
DR. REESE: That was a big deal for you coming into the program. I remember.
MARIA: Oh, I mean, it was a huge deal. I mean, that was probably the primary motivator for me to get off all of the medications. And it took a while, right? As you always say, not everybody has results in, you know, the first two weeks. Good six months.
MARIA: I've told Shawn. I've told Karen, that there is not a day that goes by that I do not give thanks for you and your team. I am so grateful that I found you guys because it's amazing. This literally is life-altering. I was headed down a really scary path, you know, with all of the synthetic meds that I was on.
DR. REESE: How was your gut on day one versus day 120?
MARIA: So initially it was just a mixture of constipation, diarrhea, just a general sad tummy. And now the only time I have an issue is when I either knowingly cheat or unknowingly get something in my system that I'm no longer accustomed to, you know, mostly the gluten and then my tummy lets me know that you've been a bad girl but I mean if I don't fall off the wagon I feel great.
DR. REESE: I mean look how skinny you are!
