I have been working with the Will Cole team for about six months. Initial extensive blood testing, urine, and stool analysis revealed that I needed to follow a strict detox protocol to address a leaky gut, mold, and toxins in my blood that were all contributing to inflammation. The inflammation was not a surprise, as I suffer from RA. My ultimate goal is to reduce the taking of anti-inflammatory drugs.

Initially, I was a little bit intimidated about the detox protocol because I have been a vegetarian for 40 years. The biggest challenge was that I needed to do a major mental turn-around to incorporate meat consumption back into my diet to increase the protein I was giving my body. I have adapted and am feeling great!

Speaking of a mental turn-around … those around me think I am on a diet. Yes, there is an extensive list of foods that I am not eating. Yes, sometimes it is hard to follow my protocol. But, about six weeks into the protocol, I had an epiphany. I am not feeling deprived because I made the decision that what I put in my body is my CHOICE. I am CHOOSING not to eat the foods that feed my inflammation. So, when someone says, “Oh, you CAN’T eat this,” my response is, “I could, but I CHOOSE not to.” It’s been quite an interesting shift in thinking.

In my case, the road to better health is not a quick fix. After all, I have many, many years (I’m 70)  of eating (and drinking) foods that have not served my body. I am thankful that I found Dr. Cole and his team to help me along in my journey. I couldn’t ask for more helpful, kind, and knowledgeable individuals to be on MY team!
