Psoriatic Arthritis - A Living HELL - Part 1 W/ Kristin Small

Long before becoming a Code Red Certified Coach, 40-year-old mother of 4, Kristin Small would crawl on her belly from her bed to the shower each morning. Her crippling psoriatic arthritis caused every joint in her body to seize up. Hear how she went from $26,000/mo in chemotherapy medication to complete healing and restoration from CODE RED. Psoriatic arthritis is an autoimmune inflammatory condition that affects the joints and the skin. It is a serious condition that is treated with chemotherapy. It impairs mobility and may even lead to permanent joint damage. Kristin suffered from crippling pain from Psoriatic arthritis for a long time, to the point of crawling around her home. She couldn’t do the normal day to day tasks. She sought treatment and was prescribed a cocktail of expensive drugs, which led to liver problems. All along her medical journey, no one mentioned having to look at her diet. All this changed when a friend recommended Code Red. She bought the book and joined the challenge, and that’s when her true healing began. In eight and a half months, she had lost 135 pounds. She was completely off her medication, and her blood pressure, cholesterol, and liver enzymes were back to normal. She got her life back, and everything got back to normal. She is now in Code Red’s maintenance program.
