I discovered my Lectin issue about five months ago.
I am an RN that has been disabled for over 25 years - I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, the classical type, and also chronic pain, Psoriatic Arthritis, Rheum Arthritis, and had been on Methadone and narcs for 25 years. I spent all those years in misery and being treated like a junkie, and wasn't (I was obviously addicted though).
I found DMSO, weaned off my narcs and hit the internet for nutrition. This is where and when I got my mind back, and my brain started working again. Then I started firing doctors and learned about Dr. Gundry and things started making sense to me.
Everything I was eating that I thought was healthy was high in lectins, so I stopped the big four first, and I started improving.
Then a few months later I got the Prebiothrive. I had been on probiotics for years, taken no antibiotics and dropped artificial sweeteners. Why was I having so much trouble?
I finally added the Prebiothrive, as my weight was not such a big issue anymore, getting off narcotic over three years time, I had dropped a total of 70 lbs and was 130 lbs again. I also had found the greatest Rheumatologist that gave me a diagnosis of Rheumatoid and Psoriatic Arthritis and started me on Otezla, which helped so fast, it was amazing. I had asked MDs for over 10 years about that, I was blown off so many times. My sed rate, through the roof, I was a swollen, spotted mess.
Lectins were killing me. So now I have had almost three and and a half weeks of Prebiothrive and finally my gut is getting straight! It was not one or two weeks but, I had been eating wrong for so long. Now, I don't know what to eat exactly, but, I'm adding things in and trying it. I have so much improvement, that I'm off blood pressure meds, off pain pills, using natural ways instead. They work better anyway, and I feel like my body is starting to help itself, as my pain is improving. Not always, as I will degenerate over time, and continue to worsen, but I feel better than I have in 30 years. I am only 54.
Thank You, Dr. Gundry, for your part in changing my life.
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
