Holistic Healing: Summary
In this episode, we dive into the health journey of Kristin Waldron, a certified Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner who shares her struggle with chronic health conditions that started from a young age. Battling with anxiety, hormonal imbalances, digestive issues, and severe reactions to mold, Kristin’s symptoms escalated after battling mono in 2017, leading to a diagnosis of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) and Dysautonomia. These conditions severely impacted her daily life, making even simple tasks challenging. Turning to functional medicine, Kristin found significant relief through holistic approaches that addressed her health challenges in a comprehensive manner.
Throughout the episode, Kristin discusses the pivotal moments in her health journey, including the realization that her environment—specifically mold exposure in her living and workspaces—played a significant role in her symptoms. This discovery led her to pursue a more holistic healing path, including working with a chiropractor and eventually, a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner. Despite occasional setbacks and learning to manage flare-ups, Kristin achieved a state of remission and significantly improved her quality of life through targeted nutritional support and lifestyle changes.
Kristin’s story is a testament to the power of perseverance and holistic health practices in overcoming chronic illness. By sharing her experiences, she hopes to inspire others dealing with similar health issues to explore comprehensive approaches to healing and wellness. The episode emphasizes the importance of trusting one’s instincts when it comes to health, advocating for holistic investigations into symptoms, and recognizing the impact of environmental factors on well-being.
