FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE WORKS.

FROM DR. WILL COLE | COLE NATURAL HEALTH CENTERS

For as long as I can remember, I never felt “good”. Feeling physical symptoms of anxiety, constant nausea and severe brain fog made every day a challenge to stay motivated and find the energy to keep moving. I loved being active and always tried to eat healthy but nothing I did seemed to work. At 25, I knew there HAD to be better and healthier way to live life.

For as long as I can remember, I never felt “good”. Feeling physical symptoms of anxiety, constant nausea and severe brain fog made every day a challenge to stay motivated and find the energy to keep moving. I loved being active and always tried to eat healthy but nothing I did seemed to work. At 25, I knew there HAD to be better and healthier way to live life. I started Dr. Cole’s program 4 months ago and I have already felt a tremendous shift in the way my body operates. I knew previously that I had Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). Through further testing with Dr. Cole, we found that I also have symptoms like leaky gut syndrome and severe adrenal fatigue, to name a few. I cannot express how essential knowing this information was to my overall health. Working with Dr. Cole and his team has provided me with the tools needed to continually rid my body of those unnecessary toxins and pave the way for a healthier future. Being healthy is not a quick fix, but it’s a journey that we travel all our lives. One thing I have learned through this process is to always keep an open mind and take one step at a time. The goal of life is not just to live, but to live well. In order to live your life and help others, you MUST first help yourself. It’s not always easy, but I can say from experience it is 100% worth it! Thank you to Dr. Cole and his team for their witness to what overall health can and should look like and their willingness to walk this journey with us each day!

My adventure with Dr. Cole began after attending one of his presentations. I was 71 at the time. My goes, expressed at our first appointment, were to drop a number of expensive prescriptions and lose some weight. I began following a series of food consumption protocols (some seemed strange) but Dr. Cole guided and encouraged me throughout. After about 10 months, I’ve had the following results: Weight 175 down from 225; Waist 33’’ down from 38’’; 3 prescriptions dropped; insulin down from 30 units daily to 10 units only occasionally….

I feel better than I have in years and am a very happy camper.

I had recently been diagnosed with an auto immune (AI) disease and differing AI diseases run in my family (Mother and siblings) so along with my husband, who had more acutely severe symptoms, we chose to consult with Dr. Cole. My symptoms were annoying and uncomfortable however within the first 2-3 months of treatment they had gone and my AI disease is now in remission!

The protocol we followed under Dr. Cole’s supervision was at first a little difficult whilst making so many changes to our daily diet and habits, however in a short period of time I got so used to it and found I really enjoyed the changes and benefits! It has now become such a routine part of our lives and we are so thankful to have had Dr. Cole guide us and direct us back to healthfulness!

With my prescription list growing every year, I knew I needed to do something differently or I would die! In 5 weeks on Dr. Cole’s program I went from 40 units of insulin to ZERO units! In 2 months my A1C has gone from 8.8 ON medication, to 6.3 WITHOUT ANY medication!

My healing journey began about a year and half ago. I was overwhelmed and confused about how to take control of my health needs until I met Dr. Cole. Then he and his staff gave me straight-forward advice, plans, and support whenever I needed it. Not only has my health improved, but my perspective on life has changed also.

I am 68 years old and I have had many health issues in the past. I have gone to many regular doctors and ask them to do tests to determine what the underlying problems where that was making me ill. they told me they were not aloud to do the tests because insurance would not pay for it. they said there was nothing wrong with me that I was just dehydrated and I needed to go home and drink more water. then I found doctor Cole. he was the first…

I have been on Dr Cole treatment plan now for 9 months and I feel great. I have lots of energy and stamina. I feel better than I did when I was a teenager. I can run up a flight of stairs without getting winded. I haven’t been able to do that in more than 35 years. I wish I would have found Dr Cole many years ago. it would have saved me a lot of pain and suffering. also I lost 25 pounds of unwanted weight without dieting. life is a lot more fun when you feel good. thank you Dr Cole.

Before I met Dr. Cole, I had been feeling terrible for years. I was in my mid-twenties when my body just felt like it was falling apart. My muscles started hurting, I was always tired no matter how much rest I got, and my brain just didn’t function the way I was used to. I grew up in a farm where I learned to always work hard, and my illness took away my work ethic. At first it was hard to make it through 8 hours of work. Then, 4…

Before I met Dr. Cole, I had been feeling terrible for years. I was in my mid-twenties when my body just felt like it was falling apart. My muscles started hurting, I was always tired no matter how much rest I got, and my brain just didn’t function the way I was used to. I grew up in a farm where I learned to always work hard, and my illness took away my work ethic. At first it was hard to make it through 8 hours of work. Then, 4 hours was difficult. I was only working a few days for a few hours each day. It took me days to recover enough to try to work another day. It always also took me hours to get out of bed. I heard about Dr. Cole on KLOVE and I instantly knew I needed his help. Him and his team looked into everything, ran a bunch of tests and helped me change my life. Less than a year later, I’m back to feeling like me. I’m working full time plus running my own business on the side, and I have energy to play with my girls. I fully believe Dr. Cole saved my life. And I cannot thank him enough.

In November 2015 I was on two types of insulin, one of these medications caused my body to retain fluids, and for a lack of better words, to thicken up. The clothes that I had worn just a month before did not fit. My legs had swollen up and they were seeping fluid, causing the front of my pants legs to become wet. I had to place bandages on them to control the seepage. My wife noticed a program that Dr. Will Cole was presenting on leaky gut syndrome. At…

In November 2015 I was on two types of insulin, one of these medications caused my body to retain fluids, and for a lack of better words, to thicken up. The clothes that I had worn just a month before did not fit. My legs had swollen up and they were seeping fluid, causing the front of my pants legs to become wet. I had to place bandages on them to control the seepage. My wife noticed a program that Dr. Will Cole was presenting on leaky gut syndrome. At first I wasn’t sure that I wanted to attend this lecture but we attended it in December 2015. After listening to Dr. Cole’s presentation I knew that this was something that we had to proceed with. It was one of the best decisions that I have made other than marrying my wife, Valerie. My blood, stool and saliva, specimens were sent to the lab. I learned that I truly have a leaky gut problem. I was allergic to gluten, and had a candida yeast infection. I had low iron and vitamin D deficiency. Since January 2016, following the protocol that Dr. Cole laid out I can say in all honesty I have not felt this good in a long time. I was informed by my endocrinologist that I no longer have to take insulin, and my cardiologist said I could reduce my blood pressure medication. I am now down to one pill a day. My blood pressure is down as well. Since January 2016, I’m down 48 pounds. This is not a diet but a lifestyle change and one that I can say is for the better. My health is better than it has been in a long time. I have more energy and feel good about life in general. I feel good about me.

With just a few weeks on Dr. Cole’s program, my blood sugar is lower and I’m taking less insulin! My joints and muscles are not hurting anymore, and I’ve lost weight! This program is fantastic!

To quote the president of the company I worked for back in 2008, “Christa, you are the sickliest person I know!”. He was right! For years I suffered with out of control thyroid disease (Hashimotos), abdominal issues, brain fog, bronchitis and/or pneumonia on a regular basis, unexplained hives, joint issues, severe allergies…I was always sick. After years of visiting countless physicians and specialists who wanted to throw pills at me to solve my issues, I decided I’d rather learn the drivers of my illness in order to determine the proper…

After years of visiting countless physicians and specialists who wanted to throw pills at me to solve my issues, I decided I’d rather learn the drivers of my illness in order to determine the proper solution(s).

Using a functional medicine approach, Dr. Cole identified that food was the underlying driver of the majority of my health issues. He found that I have a sensitivity to gluten and dairy, and provided a specialized diet/protocol to eliminate those foods from my diet and heal my gut. After 15 months of following the protocol, I have seen AMAZING results. My thyroid disease is finally under control. The cyst/nodule I have had on one of my thyroid glands for years has completely disappeared. I have not had bronchitis or pneumonia (or really any sort of a cold) in 15 months. No brain fog. The hives have virtually stopped, and my joints are stronger. My insulin resistance numbers have decreased in half. And lastly, my allergies have significantly improved! Decreasing the inflammation in my body has also resulted in two additional benefits I was not expecting – my eyesight has improved and I lost 10 pounds without even trying.

I never would have dreamed food could impact my health the way it has, but I am now a firm believer in a functional medicine approach to healthcare. Thank you Dr. Cole!!!!

A few years ago after a lifetime of taking good, health conscious care of myself, I started having digestive issues. I spent years doing the rounds of numerous GI specialists (all diagnosing me differently and treating me differently), dieticians, nutritional experts, as well as trying alternative practices such as hypnotherapy and acupuncture. No treatment gave me any sustainable relief. I was dependent upon medication without which daily life was almost intolerable. Deciding to consult with Dr. Cole turned out to be the best decision ever. Since starting treatment with Dr….

I spent years doing the rounds of numerous GI specialists (all diagnosing me differently and treating me differently), dieticians, nutritional experts, as well as trying alternative practices such as hypnotherapy and acupuncture. No treatment gave me any sustainable relief. I was dependent upon medication without which daily life was almost intolerable. Deciding to consult with Dr. Cole turned out to be the best decision ever. Since starting treatment with Dr. Cole my general health, ability and approach to my daily activities has improved dramatically. In less than 3 months I was off the medication I was so dependent upon, my energy levels have improved greatly and I feel normal again. I highly recommend Dr. Cole as he is truly the only practitioner who has made a substantial and lasting difference for me. He also is a really nice guy who is thoughtful, professional, responsive and compassionate.

This program has been a REAL game changer. I was borderline diabetic with daily fatigue, frustration with being overweight and inability to lose the weight, and the affects of arthritic pain. Now I have blood work and blood pressure levels that I thought only athletes could have, am 50 pounds lighter, have more energy, reduced arthritic pain, and best of all, REAL enthusiasm to enjoy daily life again and the ability to share this feeling with family and friends. Before I couldn’t even keep up with my 2 and 3…

Last August 2016 I began my healing journey with Dr. Will Cole. Prior to finding him I had struggled with multiple autoimmune diseases and all of the ugly symptoms that go along with them; at 44 I felt trapped and hopeless in a broken body. Dr. Cole helped me find the missing pieces to my body’s personal puzzle and has slowly but surely put this girl back together. Though my healing journey is far from over I haven’t felt this good in years! I can’t thank him and his awesome…

Dr. Cole helped me find the missing pieces to my body’s personal puzzle and has slowly but surely put this girl back together. Though my healing journey is far from over I haven’t felt this good in years! I can’t thank him and his awesome staff enough for all of their loving care and support. At 45 I have a new sense of freedom and am full of hope!

Before finding Dr. Will I was aimlessly doing everything I could to feel better, but nothing seemed to help. I spent ten years getting brushed off by conventional medicine doctors only to see my health dramatically decline. After finally convincing my doctor to run some tests, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s Disease. They prescribed medication and sent me on my way but I knew there was more to the story and conventional medicine doctors were not willing to explore it. Frustrated and exhausted, I refused to accept this as an…

Before finding Dr. Will I was aimlessly doing everything I could to feel better, but nothing seemed to help. I spent ten years getting brushed off by conventional medicine doctors only to see my health dramatically decline.

After finally convincing my doctor to run some tests, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s Disease. They prescribed medication and sent me on my way but I knew there was more to the story and conventional medicine doctors were not willing to explore it. Frustrated and exhausted, I refused to accept this as an answer, found Dr. Will and my life changed! He not only listened to me but he heard what I was saying and most importantly he had solutions.

His extensive lab work revealed I not only have Hashimoto’s Disease, but I also have Epstein Barr Virus, Chronic Fatigue, Adrenal Fatigue- Stage 5, IBS (possibly Leaky Gut), food sensitivities and harmful toxins. Overwhelmed by it all, Dr. Will thoroughly explained what it all meant and created a protocol based on my specific needs.

Dr. Will takes a whole body approach to problem-solving your health challenges and creating a treatment plan which, in my opinion, is imperative when it comes to finding the right doctor. Dr. Will and his team provide incredible support, taking the guesswork out of the equation. Their knowledge is scientific and current. Their strategy is smart, realistic and manageable while setting patients up for life long success.

Some of the greatest gifts I’m learning from Dr. Will and his team is that “healing is possible” and that our bodies are not against us, but fighting for us every second of every day. Most importantly, I’ve learned “you can’t go at it alone!” You can’t waste your time trying everything that “claims” it will make you feel better! You can’t waste your time running from one specialist to another trying to spot-treat your health, and you can’t waste your time feeling sick anymore! Healing isn’t just about eating the right foods, it’s truly about the mind, body, and spirit. Once you own it and work with Dr. Will miracles can happen.

Before I met Dr. Cole, I had no energy, I couldn’t lose weight, and my joints ached. Dr. Cole took the time to run tests that actually looked at my underlying issues. Now I have 10x more energy, lost 16 pounds, and have no joint pain! Dr. Cole helped me get my life back!

Before starting to see Dr. Cole, I was barely functioning. It was tough for me to make it through the day. I have multiple conditions that can make daily life very challenging most of the time, primarily being Sjogrens, migraines, chronic fatigue, and fibromyalgia. Since starting with Dr. Cole and using the protocols that he had set up for me eight months ago, my migraines have almost stopped, my energy has increased dramatically, my pain has improved, my concentration has improved, I can sleep through the night and be ready…

I have hope in a brighter future for me and my monastic community.

Until I attended one of Dr. Cole’s workshops, I felt as though I was doomed. I was taking insulin before every meal, with no end in sight. I truly believed there were alternatives to medications and Dr. Cole proved it to me. After 5 months, I am insulin free and 50 pounds lighter! I recommend this to anyone who is serious about their health. I feel like a new person.

After completing the program with Dr. Cole I was able to achieve all of this without medication! My A1C is down from 10.5 to 6.1 and my fasting glucose went from over 240 down to under 100. I wish I had known about this program years ago. I now have an indescribable peace of mind knowing that my health has improved greatly. I am thrilled with the results for the diabetes, and a weight loss that seemed impossible to achieve in the past.

I would recommend the treatment from Dr.Cole and his team any day of the week and twice on Sunday. I feel great!!!! I am currently still in treatment and am enjoying every second of it.

I have found it to be empowering, life changing and tasty!! Dr. Cole and his team have provided constant care and are always on hand to provide support which has been invaluable.

The year prior to my treatment was a low one. I suffered depression, constant brain fog, was tired all the time and was not enjoying life. I have MS and have since discovered through the treatment the underlying causes to many of the problems I faced. 6 months on and still enjoying the wholesome healthy foods, my family and I are enjoying the transformation. I couldn’t be happier!

Dr. Cole and his staff have given me my life back! Before working with Dr. Cole, I could barely get out of bed in the morning, and daily life was exhausting and difficult to manage. Now, I’ve healed myself from the inside out, lost weight, and have a renewed sense of energy and life! Trust the process, do the work, and this will be you too!

I am 68 years old and I was diagnosed with type type 2 diabetes 6 years ago. I was on diabetes medicine and my A1C was at 9. I have been a patient of Dr. Cole for the past six months and my A1C is now between 5.3 to 5.5 (Normal range for non Diabetics) and I no longer take diabetes medicine. I have lost 25 lbs. and feel great. I am determined to follow Dr. Coles advice for the rest of my life and be free from diabetes.

In December 2015 my husband David and I attended one of Dr. Will Cole’s free dinner presentations. We were both having health issues. After hearing Dr. Cole we both knew we needed to let him help us get healthier. In fact we signed up that evening. We started our new way of life January 2016. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. I myself have thyroid issues, brain fog, stomach problems, and achy arthritic joints.

It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. I myself have thyroid issues, brain fog, stomach problems, and achy arthritic joints. Three months into the program, my brain fog has pretty much cleared up. I can now eat without stomach pain and bloating. My arthritic pain is gone and my crooked arthritic fingers have straightened up. My leaky gut is being healed. I have lost 11 pounds without being on a “DIET”. I haven’t felt this good in years! I have no more sugar cravings. Who knew… no counting calories, measuring and weighing foods could make me lose weight and get healthy. All I did was give up eating processed foods and now eat organic vegetables and fruits, grass fed meats, wild caught fish, and good healthy fats. Thank you Dr. Cole and staff for your care and guidance. I now feel like I can truly live my life abundantly!
