Food and Therapeutic Diet Solutions for Women with Autoimmune Disease and Chronic Illness. Are you a woman with autoimmune disease or chronic illness? Are you so tired of feeling tired and going to doctor after doctor and trying the different naturopathic methods, all the different diets, and literally nothing sticking? Nothing is helping you? Autoimmune Disease and Chronic Illness are difficult to navigate and you’re often doing it on your own. Doctors can test, maybe diagnose, and medicate, but what they can’t do is help you when you’re at home, living it out. I’m here for you friend. Hi! I’m Marian Mitchell Byous, an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach. For the past 9 years, I’ve specialized in working with people who were struggling with complex chronic health conditions helping them regain their health through food and therapeutic diet solutions. I’ve been on the diet rollercoaster trying to heal myself and my family too. I’ve done every major dietary lifestyle out there trying to heal my migraines, psoriasis, ongoing GI issues, acne, and insanely painful periods. When my dad was diagnosed with relapsing polychondritis and my daughter was diagnosed with Celiac Disease, I knew I had to make living healthy realistic, simple, and enjoyable. I wanted all of us to live symptom-free and feel like we’re able to participate in all of life. It had to be easy or it wouldn’t happen. That became my mission. My realistic approach to therapeutic diets and food is unique. I know that you have a life. You aren’t just your disease (or multiple diseases). You have a job, a partner, a family, obligations, friends, parties, and places to go explore. You’re already tired and feel awful, you can’t live in your kitchen, spend $1500 a month on food and supplements, and never go out. The last thing you need is to add a super restrictive diet that leaves you hungry, tired, and stressed out. Getting healthy should not be miserable and it doesn’t have to be. I’m excited to share with you my heart and passion for making eating different and living healthy effortless. It truly can be! It’s all about being strategic and realistic while focusing on the positive. You have SO much in your control! In fact, diet and lifestyle account for 80% of your health outcomes! I want you to feel empowered and excited for your road to regaining your health and feeling amazing again. Time to grab your kombucha and notebook, let’s dive in!

I've used homeopathy for years in the form of combinations on the shelf. Things like Hyland Teething Gel (before they changed the formula), Arnica cream for bruising, Oscillo for the flu, and this amazing decongestant that is safe for 6 month old babies and up. It one of those modalities that people don't really understand and tend to shy away from. It IS a tool in the medical toolbox. In this episode Homeopathist Pam Klein explains what it is, how it works, and shares case studies to help us wrap our heads around this modality.

Mental illness is often separated from physical wellness, and it shouldn't be. Dr. Hector believes that mental wellness is directly tied to physical wellness and vice versa. I love his approach, and I believe you will as well.

One of the biggest struggles my clients have is finding a personal trainer who won't push them too hard, won't injure them, will listen to them, and respect the specialized diet they need to follow. Joey McDonald is the Founder of Fitness Collective, an affordable personal training facility I have personally used and highly respect.
In this episode, Joey and I talk about my struggles personally and professionally with personal trainers, his journey to starting Fitness Collective, how they interview trainers to find high-quality trainers, and more. You will walk away from this interview with your own interview blueprint to find a personal trainer who will meet you where you're at, won't push you so hard your symptoms flare up, and will be on your team.
