How we manage over 16 diseases and illnesses
Going from…
Feeling ill to Feeling well to Happiness
Our story of wellness success with the advice of scientists
We manage on a daily basis:
Crohn’s, Severe Food Allergies, Lung Cancer (now prevention), Mental Health Disorders, Diabetes, Pulmonary Fibrosis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Blepharitis, natural intervention to chemo and radiation, and other illnesses that accompany autoimmune diseases.
Natural and Nutrition:
We needed to combine Natural Remedy Ideas with Nutrition to keep our family alive. Our Journey made us incredibly knowledgeable about nutrition and wellness. Fortunately from our perseverance, everything is getting better and better each day.
It brings tears to my eyes the success we have had and continue to have. And that is why I created this business. So I can bring awareness and options for people to manage their dietary restrictions sooner rather than later. Helping you avoid lots of trials along the way. If I can bring results that make you feel good, then I have served my purpose. Below we are sharing our family’s medical achievements and how we did it with the advice of scientists who specialize in wellness.
To keep up with the ever changing studies and research, I continue to get certifications. Constantly reading scientific studies to stay well educated. Always surrounding myself with health professionals and well respected people to bring you Farr Better solutions. I really enjoy and get so much value from the associations I belong to that revolve around food allergy and disease prevention.

We are listing the illness and the wellness program we are currently doing to help them Feel Better and Enjoy Life. Welcome to our journey…
Type 2 Diabetes and Kidney levels
Diabetes levels
A1C = Was 7.7 and 6 months later was 7%
When the A1C test is used to diagnose diabetes, an A1C level of 6.5 percent or higher on two separate occasions indicates you have diabetes. A result between 5.7 and 6.4 percent is considered prediabetes, which indicates a high risk of developing diabetes.Jan 7, 2016
Resource from Mayo Clinic http://www.mayoclinic.org/tests-procedures/a1c-test/details/results/rsc-20167939
Kidney levels
Potassium = Was as high as 8.0 and continues to drop. Within this last year it was 5.0 and now is 4.8
Potassium is a chemical (electrolyte) that is critical to the proper functioning of nerve and muscles cells, particularly heart muscle cells. Normally, your blood potassium level is 3.6 to 5.2 millimoles per liter (mmol/L).
Resource from Mayo Clinic http://www.mayoclinic.org/symptoms/low-potassium/basics/definition/sym-20050632
How we manage this disease and illness
We control the carbohydrates and sugar intake. It’s a lot of hard work but with perseverance, the diabetes level continues to get closer to the normal range.
#1
Eating the Farr Better Recipes, that are Ketogenic Friendly, has contributed to the success of managing the diabetic levels and also weight loss. Ketogenic diets are low in carbohydrates and high in the healthy fats (coconut oil, avocados, Omega-3s, etc…). A lot of research has gone into creating recipes that accommodate diabetic dietary restrictions. Feel free to contact me to learn more about this diet method. It’s important to manage what you eat along with choosing healthy supplementation.
#2
The blood sugar level (also known as blood glucose) would be as high as 180’s, but we have got it down as low as 130’s in the last couple months. To help retain normal blood-sugar levels we take a Glucose Regulation Complex supplement. This supplement is a unique blend of scientifically supported ingredients that keep the blood sugar levels steady and promote efficient glucose utilization. Great news, this supplement is gluten free and Kosher. Chromium is an important factor in normal insulin (one of the hormones responsible for blood sugar control) function. That is a key ingredient for the Glucose Regulation Complex.
Contact me if you want to see the scientific information behind this supplement or learn more about what is working for us.
#3
We need to keep everything balanced between what we eat, supplementation and vitamins. It was crucial to us that we have a Life Energizing Shake which is a delicious, protein-rich meal shake with nutrients clinically proven to help create the foundation for a longer, healthier life. From scientific research, this Life Energizing Shake provides a balance of wellness in our life;

Mental Health Illnesses
I am sure at one time or another you have experienced or seen, that what we eat can really effect our moods. It makes even more of a difference if someone has mental health challenges. Our personal experience has been that if they eat foods that are FREE OF Gluten, Wheat, Dairy, Yeast, and Soy there is less anxiety, anger, stress and depression.
What the health professionals are saying:
“Traditionally, we haven’t been trained to ask about food and nutrition,” says psychiatrist Drew Ramsey, MD, an assistant clinical professor at Columbia University. “But diet is potentially the most powerful intervention we have. By helping people shape their diets, we can improve their mental health and decrease their risk of psychiatric disorders.”
“A very large body of evidence now exists that suggests diet is as important to mental health as it is to physical health,” says Felice Jacka, president of the International Society for Nutritional Psychiatry Research. “A healthy diet is protective and an unhealthy diet is a risk factor for depression and anxiety.”
Nearly 1 in 4 Americans have some type of mental illness each year. The CDC says that by 2020, depression will rank as the second leading cause of disability, after heart disease.

A balanced mood and feelings of well-being can be protected by ensuring that our diet provides adequate amounts of complex carbohydrates, essential fats, amino acids, vitamins and minerals and water.
While a healthy diet can help recovery, it should sit alongside other treatments recommended by your doctor.

Lung Cancer and Pulmonary Fibrosis
Our situation… A family member was diagnosed with stage 2 lung cancer. A non-smoker and non drinker, so it must be an environmental cause. 1 lung was removed August of 2016. Diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis from the biopsy during the time of lung surgery. I believe that a huge part of beating this has to do with the mindset of the person. And our family is strong and so supportive. They decided to fight this with me along side using the knowledge and research I have done on wellness. I am the biggest advocate for anyone that says they want to fight back from their illness or disease. Everyone has a choice and we chose not to do chemo and radiation, here is what we did and our story of wellness success…

Most of the time off of the cough medicine with codeine and other meds for coughing. Coughing has decreased significantly. Doctors say keep doing what we are doing!
