The Back Story

After being diagnosed in 2012 with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (more commonly referred to as M.E. or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome), as well as IBS, Lauren was determined to treat herself as naturally as possible, and discovered that by making specific dietary and lifestyle changes, she was able to alleviate and overcome many symptoms. Lauren's groundbreaking 'Chronic Fatigue Syndrome' book will be released in Spring 2023. “I can relate. I know how it feels to have poor health and nowhere to turn for answers. I have experienced first-hand the power of nutritional and lifestyle interventions in recovering my own health and have also seen incredible results with clients. I take a holistic approach always. It is not about managing the symptom but instead getting to the root cause so that your symptoms stop occurring altogether” - Lauren Windas
