Fatigue Case Study

AMANDA MONTALVO
About this episode

In this episode, we are wrapping up our case study series with a case study focusing on fatigue. Our third case is of a previous course student and 1:1 client, Taylor. This case study is shared with permission. We did change her name and a few details to protect her privacy. 

As always, this episode is for informational purposes only. Please talk with your healthcare provider before making any nutrition or lifestyle changes. 

Taylor came to us with extreme fatigue (and I mean extreme) and a slew of other symptoms that were very concerning to her. She started out in the Master Your Minerals course and then did a results review with me. She discovered she had very low mineral levels and was as depleted as she felt. After making some hard life decisions and prioritizing her health, she regained the energy she lost and started to feel like herself again.

This episode covers:

  • Her main concerns and symptoms, including what she had previously tried
  • Taylor's stress timeline, what she was doing well, and where we decided to focus
  • Her HTMA results and the very few additional interventions we added as a result
  • Taylor's healing ups and downs over the next seven months
