In their own words

When I started working with Elena, I had been taking PPIs for 12 years. I was bloated after meals, constantly tired, struggling with anxiety and depression, and no matter what I did, I couldn’t gain weight.

My bloodwork was also going in the wrong direction. My HbA1c and cholesterol were elevated, and I knew something wasn’t right.

Elena looked at the whole picture instead of treating each symptom separately.

Four months later, my repeat labs were within normal ranges. I’m off the PPIs, I’ve gained a few much-needed pounds, and I can eat without feeling bloated and uncomfortable.

But what matters most is how I feel. My mood is stable, my anxiety is so much better, and I have energy again.

After years of feeling unwell, I finally feel like myself.

Before working with Elena, I was tired ALL the time.

I would eat and immediately feel bloated and uncomfortable. My head felt foggy, my energy was terrible, and I was frustrated because I didn’t understand why I felt so bad.

What I appreciated about working with Elena was that we didn’t just add more random supplements. We worked on my gut, stress, nutrition, and the deeper issues that could be contributing to my symptoms.

I also completed a three-month gut and parasite protocol under her guidance.

The difference is hard to explain unless you’ve lived this way.

I wake up with energy. My head feels clear. I can eat without looking six months pregnant afterward.

Most importantly, I don’t spend my entire day thinking about how bad I feel.

I run a business. I manage people. I solve problems all day long.

But I couldn’t figure out what was happening to ME.

At 48, I was dealing with hot flashes, night sweats, terrible sleep, low energy, and a level of irritability that didn’t even feel like me.

I was doing all the “right” things and still struggling.

Elena helped me stop looking at every symptom separately. We uncovered issues with my blood sugar and stress response and started working on the foundations my body needed.

My hot flashes are now minimal. I sleep so much better. My energy is back, and I’m not dragging myself through my workday.

I feel sharper, calmer, and much more like the woman I used to be.

And that has changed how I show up everywhere.

My doctor told me my labs were “fine.”

But I watched my mother’s health decline over the years, and I knew I didn’t want to wait until I had a diagnosis before I started taking care of myself differently.

Working with Elena helped me understand what my body was trying to tell me NOW.

Instead of waiting for symptoms to become diseases, we looked at my health more deeply and created a plan that actually made sense for me.

Today I have more energy, I sleep better, my mind feels clearer, my hormones feel more balanced, and I feel stronger when I exercise.

But the biggest change is peace of mind.

I feel like I’m actively investing in the next 20 or 30 years of my life instead of just hoping I’ll stay healthy.

Over a few years, I gained about 20 pounds.

At the same time, my blood sugar was climbing, my cholesterol and blood pressure were becoming concerns, and I was exhausted.

I knew I needed to do something, but the last thing I wanted was another diet I couldn’t maintain.

Working with Elena helped me see that my weight wasn’t the only problem we needed to address.

We worked on my nutrition, metabolism, sleep, stress, and the foundations affecting my overall health.

Little by little, things started changing.

My labs improved. The weight started coming off. I had more energy and didn’t feel like I was constantly forcing myself through the day.

This wasn’t about getting skinny.

It was about getting healthy again—and feeling like I was finally in control.
