From prescription drugs to food as medicine

How it started

Diagnosed with Crohn's when he was 15, Kyle tried several recommended drugs for his chronic condition. The treatment pattern was clear: increase medication each year and bear the side effects that come with them. But once he started treating food as medicine and eating the right food for his unique body, his condition went into deep remission. He felt healthier than ever, and for the first time, his doctor detected no inflammation in his gut. Kyle almost entirely stopped taking prescribed drugs for his condition.
