@thedetoxdietitian: Plot twist: your symptoms don't need to be silenced - they need to be reversed 🔄 Your body isn't broken. Your symptoms aren't enemies to suppress. They're messengers trying to tell you about underlying dysfunction that can be identified and addressed. Acid blockers silence reflux but worsen the low stomach acid causing it. Anti-inflammatories quiet joint pain but ignore the gut toxins creating inflammation. Sleep meds mask insomnia but don't restore the gut bacteria that produce calming neurotransmitters. Short-term symptom management has its place, but it's not healing. It's buying time while the root dysfunction continues unchecked - often getting worse. Real healing happens when we: → Listen to what symptoms are communicating → Investigate the root dysfunction creating them → Address the underlying imbalances → Support your body's natural healing capacity Your chronic fatigue isn't a Ritalin deficiency. Your anxiety isn't a Xanax deficiency. Your reflux isn't a Prilosec deficiency. They're signs of specific imbalances that comprehensive functional testing can identify and targeted protocols can address. When we reverse the root dysfunction, symptoms resolve naturally and permanently - because we've eliminated what was creating them in the first place. Your body has remarkable healing capacity when we remove what's interfering with its function and provide what it needs to restore balance. What symptoms have you been managing instead of investigating? How long have you been treating them? 👇
