Natural Health Warriors Ep #7

We're filming Lynnette's story today, and I wanted to tell you because it's so amazing and inspiring. So Lynnette, can you give us a, just a little bit of your background, who you are and what you've struggled with?

Again, Lynette Collins and age 39. I have five kids, soon to be a grandma. Um, and my story is going to go back about 20 years or so. I'm newly married, um, pregnant expecting first baby. And the weight came on very, very quickly for me. Um, and unfortunately the weight stayed on throughout the next several pregnancies. Um, and I was starting to struggle, um, with just some self-confidence issues. Um, I actually ended up in the emergency room a few times with some rapid heartbeat, um, some heart palpitations. And from there that's where the doctor visits started. Um, I started to, um, get prescribed medication. So first and foremost would have been my thyroid. I was diagnosed with low thyroid. And, um, then depression. So medication for that. Anxiety. Medication for that. Um, I didn't stay on the medications for depression and anxiety for too long. Um, but I started to have some more symptoms and issues like chronic headaches and fatigue, um, even being on low thyroid medication. Um, so that's pretty much what started it.
