What clients all over the world have said about working with me:

Julie Ainsworth, California

Angela is incredibly good at what she does. Adding hypnosis to my healing plan has made a big difference. I think I’ve made more progress in the last several months while working with Angela than I have in over five years with functional medicine alone. I still have some work to do (I’m only about 1/3 of the way done), but I’m so grateful for the tremendous support and healing I’ve experienced so far under her care.

Harveen Chhoker, Canada

Working with Angela has been an absolute blessing. She is kind, knowledgeable and extremely supportive. We worked on healing through hypnotherapy sessions together to regain my confidence with eating food and to work towards healing digestive symptoms.
 
I tested positive for SIBO and was suffering from indigestion, bloating, gas, extreme food intolerances as well as severe anxiety.
 
The hypnotherapy made a significant difference in my healing journey.  No other health care practitioner I worked with (at least 7 before Angela) had mentioned the connection between my symptoms and my subconscious mind.
 
I learned my traumas and emotional experiences were the true root cause of my symptoms and saw positive results for the first time in 8 months of experiencing constant painful symptoms. I feel like I’m getting my life back.
 
I recommend working with Angela if you feel “stuck” or if nothing has been working for you. Her compassion and encouragement to see her clients succeed is incomparable to any other professional I have worked with. 
 
 

Mary Arnholt, Colorado 

Angela is the only health professional that has ever gotten me results!! I’ve learned so much from her and am very thankful to have had the opportunity to work with her. Because of Angela I beat SIBO and had the mental strength, guidance and support to do the elemental diet for 2 weeks.  I feel so good after eradicating SIBO.

Dana S, Pennsylvania

Angela is an expert in treating H. Pylori and restoring overall gut health. I have not met a practitioner more knowledgeable or caring than Angela. She gave me the guidance and tools to reclaim my health after battling what I understand now as H. Pylori, for three and a half years (I was told by multiple GI specialists that it was all “SIBO” and to take probiotics). The GI Map gives so much information about the state of your gut health, and Angela does a fantastic job interpreting it and making excellent recommendations. By following her protocol, which was simple and consisted of diligently-selected supplements, I got rid of H. Pylori in two months. 

My skin is the clearest it has ever been, I have so much energy (no more brain fog or fatigue!), my thyroid is functioning optimally, and my digestion is amazing. I’m able to tolerate so many more foods without having sensitivities or needing to go on restriction diets. I did not experience any “die-off” reactions during the protocol, it was a gentle cleanse that worked with my body and not against it. I trusted Angela’s coaching and never felt abandoned or lost at any time. I am grateful to have connected with Angela. She deeply understands gut health and will get you on track to healing and feeling the best you have in years!

 

DM Murillo, Washington

Early this year, I was suffering a severe case of abdominal pain related to IBS. I suspected my symptoms could be related to SIBO. The pain would wake me up every morning at 3 am, enough to create a constant discomfort and anxiety.

The discomfort had me going to the bathroom multiple times a day. I found Angela via google search and decided to give her treatment a try.

After a couple appointments to scope the work plan, I got tested for SIBO and GI-Map testing to figure out what possible bacteria was causing the problem.

After the results and treatment, I was able to notice a 180 degree difference in my health. The pain went away and I no longer needed to be on the low fodmap diet which I had been for almost a year and my visits to the bathroom became normal.

Angela is a nutritionist with a heart of a healer, she loves what she does and does it because she loves to help people.  I highly recommend her services, it is worth the cost as in my experience nothing else I had tried before worked, including GI track specialists and conventional doctors. 

Keith Gills, Richmond, VA

I have suffered with reflux (GERD) and stomach pain for as long as I can remember. Doctors could not help me and my tests for h. pylori were consistently negative. I took the GI Map and Angela’s hunch about H. pylori was dead on. After the doing the protocol she gave me, for the first time in years, my symptoms are gone.  

Casey H. Boulder, Co

I recently took an H. pylori breath test and got a negative result! My natural treatment for H. pylori worked well – with no side effects. About halfway through the protocol, I noticed things improving – symptoms that I previously had not connected to H. pylori. Amazingly, my overwhelming fatigue lifted.

Myra Meverden, former nurse, Aurora, Colorada

I am impressed for sure.  I was so tired of fighting doctors that knew nothing except antibiotics and more antibiotics, that I had almost given up until I happened upon Angela’s website. 

After about 14 days of the protocol,  I noticed I had very little to no bloating and that felt so much better. One of the supplements helped with the constipation and I was feeling pretty good. I was staying on the diet but did cheat a tiny bit on Thanksgiving but I had no bloating or other symptoms from it.

It was encouraging to me. Normally I would have been thrown off for days but it caused nothing.

Leah B. , Michigan

I would not hesitate to recommend Angela for a second opinion on the GI Map.  She helped me implement a key step in order to be more successful in eradicating my h.pylori that another practitioner did not recommend.  She is knowledgeable, caring, and you never feel  alone on your gut healing journey. 

Irina, Massachusetts

When I found Angela, I was miserable with gut issues that conventional doctors could not help with. Angela gave me comprehensive testing and game me a healing plan. I feel so much better and have had tremendous improvements since I started working with her.

I have much less constipation, gas, bloating and discomfort and my gut feels almost back to normal. I am also experiencing less anxiety and depression from those issues. I’m starting to feel more like myself for the first time in years now and that’s something I’ll never take for granted again.

Throughout the process, Angela has always been very attentive and responsive whenever I have questions or concerns, which has been tremendously helpful in taming my fear and anxiety. And I love that she has a holistic approach to health. She has been so much more helpful and knowledgeable than any conventional doctor I’ve seen. It’s been a breath of fresh air working with Angela, and I’m truly forever grateful to her.

Kayla S. , Chicago

I was able to get pregnant because of working on my gut with Angela. 
 
Thank you so much Angela, you are a reason for this miracle 🙂

 

Val Louis, Massachusetts 

So much progress with Angela’s coaching. I have maintained clean eating, I only have alcohol on rare occasion and I was doing tea instead of coffee but have recently started drinking coffee occasionally.

All the work I have done has truly given me amazing results, before food would just go right through me, now I actually process my food and have normal stools. That is amazing! I am now more aware of what is ok and what is not. 

 

Aiden A, Sonoma, California

I am doing really well! The things Angela recommended have really helped my anxiety level. I am back to normal, it’s really great!  My digestion is a lot better too.  It’s funny because finances have been a little troublesome lately but I am not as stressed as I was before. 

Teresa Crowe, Cornelius, North Carolina

I came to Angela with massive sleep problems due to my stomach pain. In the past week I have has the best sleep I’ve had in years. And this is the best my stomach has felt in the last 5 and a half years. So happy I worked with Angela. She was able to spot a problem that other naturopaths and doctors missed. 

Lizadia Torres, Puerto Rico

I’ve been feeling really good, digesting food much better and not feeling bloated like I used to, which is huge for me. The upper side pain I used to experience has subsided a lot. If I overeat ,I just feel the normal overeating sensation, which calms after a few hours. It is surprising how much progress I have made and I am extremely happy about it. 

Karla Alcantar, Santa Rosa, CA

Thanks to Angela I am recovering fast. Angela’s recommendations helped me very quickly, I used to have discomfort from bloating on the lower left side and lower right side of my abdomen so I wouldn’t sleep on my sides, but since starting her protocol that discomfort in my lower abdomen disappeared completely so I can now sleep comfortably on my sides again!   

Leo Moreti, Brazil

Working with Angela has been amazing. Through comprehensive functional gut testing (the GI Map) I have finally figured out what’s going on in my gut and have the answers I’ve wanted for years.
 
Angela developed an action plan to tackle the issues we found. I’m so happy, because for the first time I feel like I’m on the right path to healing and I already feel so much better. 
 
Angela has been very supportive and empathetic during this process, which makes a world of difference to me. I highly recommend working with Angela. 
 
With Angela’s expertise in gut health I was able to tackle these issues that have been bothering me for a long time: 
 
* Lethargy and extreme fatigue after meals: diminished 80% (before I had to lay down after meals because I would feel lethargic and extremely tired for 1.5 hour – now I only have to lay down for some 20 minutes, because the lethargy and fatigue are greatly diminished);
 
* Dizziness and brain fog after meals: diminished 80% as well (same thing as above, the dizziness and brain fog after meals were terrible before, now much better);
 
* Indigestion and heaviness in stomach: improved almost 100% – I feel like my digestion is smoother now.
 
* Overall energy levels and moods are much better. 
 

Alexandra B, London, England

My tummy has been so much better, in fact my husband commented last week that it had been ages since he’s heard me saying I felt sick which is a good indicator that I’m feeling much better.
 

Scott Weyenberg, Wisconsin

It took me a long while to do anything for my digestive issues. But I am so glad I finally did. This is the best I’ve felt in 20 years.  Functional gut testing, herbs and diet were extremely effective, when I knew exactly what I was dealing with. 
 

Stephanie P., Falls Church Virginia

When I came to Angela 3 years ago, my gastrointestinal symptoms were preventing me from living my life. Angela ensured I got all of the right tests done to figure out what was going on in my gut, and once we pinpointed the issues, she was able to come up with a plan. She introduced me to a bunch of helpful supplements, including my favorite, Megasporbiotic. This probiotic has worked wonders for me.
 
Along with other supplements Angela suggested I take, Megasporbiotic has helped me to feel more like myself. I still take it to this day. Now instead of letting my gastrointestinal problems control my life, I’m able to attend school while working a part time job. I would highly recommend working with Angela. She has been so knowledgeable, empathetic, and supportive throughout this entire process and without her I wouldn’t have made this much progress.

Irene Fraizinger, Miami Florida

Working with Angela helped me finally address the digestive issue that I experienced for a long time with little help from doctors. The GI Map provided me with comprehensive test results that for the first time helped  me understand the cause of my health issues.  For example, I would have never known that I needed digestive enzymes. They help tremendously. 
 
With Angela’s guidance I was able to address and actually get rid of my digestive issues! Working with Angela was a pleasure and her plan of action was key in resolving my reflux and H. pylori symptoms. I highly recommend Do It Yourself Health!  
 

Kristen Jordan Koenig, Lawrence Kansas

I’ve been feeling significantly better over the last few weeks after finishing the protocol! The major bloating and discomfort I was having in June is pretty much gone now and I’ve been avoiding gluten and sugar for a few months. I’ve even been able to reincorporate onion, garlic, and dried fruit into my diet without any of the side effects I used to have. I’ve had a lot more brain space to focus on relaxing and healing. 
 
I’m so happy with the retest results, so happy the parasite is gone and that I’m feeling so much better! Angela has been amazing to work with and I am so grateful for her knowledge and support through this process. 
 

Crystal Caldwell Brauer, Denver Colorado

I have been having GI issues such as severe bloating, severe gas, and an increase in belching for several years. It had become my ‘normal” for severe bloating and gas to start minutes after eating. Sometimes I had a food coma and would struggle to function.

Not knowing what was causing my symptoms made finding a solution very challenging and I got nowhere on my own. Since working with Angela I did several gut tests including VIOME, the GI Map and a food allergy test. These tests have shown that I have a parasite, a leaky gut, and several severe food allergies that with time I’m hoping to kick. Now I know what foods to avoid and I have a game plan for healing my gut.

Losing extra weight was not a goal of mine, but it happened. Over the years I dreamed of having a “normal gut” and not having the worst gas of anyone I know. These things are becoming my reality and I’m excited to understand why my body was reacting like it was.

Every time I talk with Angela she gives me encouragement and offers great recipe ideas with foods that are safe for me to eat. This is the best my gut has felt in years thanks to Angela. 

Karmin Wall, Dallas Texas

I have been dealing with IBS-D for 10 years. 

I tried to treat myself by googling my symptoms. I was convinced I had parasites or candida. I did cleanses, coffee enemas, probiotics, liver cleanse (w/ olive oil), a one-week fast and restrictive diets.  I even bought a sauna and rife machine!

I’m pretty sure some of this was good but without knowing what was really wrong with me I was playing an expensive time-consuming guessing game. I gave up and sought out professional help, but most of these natural practitioners are one-trick ponies and most don’t do testing and the testing they do is not accurate.  

I finally found Angela. She went through similar problems and solved them.  I took her testing and found out I had h-pylori and SIBO. I finally had answers and a plan to get back my health back. My symptoms have improved, no more gas or bloating. All the healthy diets in the world would not have gotten rid of it. 

I ‘m finishing up my protocol and highly recommend Angela if you have digestive issues no one can help you solve. Forever grateful.

Keri-Rose Lanotte, Lubbock Texas

Thanks to Angela, I have had more success with the Viome dietary recommendations than I have had with FODMAPs or the SIBO diet. 

Anne Kessler, Point Arena California

I am soooo much better. All my symptoms are either gone or fading fast. I have my strength and resilience back. Happy to report increased energy, easy regular bowel habits, and no more bloating. I can exercise again. Arthritis is gone. I haven’t had a migraine in 2 months. I sleep like a log. I am thrilled! The liver protocol that Angela gave me is really helping. 

Karen B. , Chicago IL

I’ve completed 6.5 weeks of my 8 week protocol and am generally feeling better now. I rarely feel any discomfort at all. I’ve lost about 12 pounds and my belly has noticeably shrunk. I didn’t care about losing weight as long as I felt better but it’s been a nice benefit. Thank you so much for your help and thank you for helping me feel this good. It’s been a very long time and I’m thrilled. 

Kimberly Frank, Ingleside IL

When I found Angela I was in crisis mode. My gut was shutting down and rejecting food. I hadn’t eaten in 2 weeks. I needed help calming my gut and getting nutrients. Angela suggested an elemental diet to supply predigested carbs, protein and fats. After using it for three weeks my gut began to heal as I waited for my lab tests to come back.

I was able to reintroduce food again and the test results revealed the root cause of my symptoms. Now I have a plan to fix my gut, keep inflammation down and bloating at bay.

Finally after years of doctors visits I have some answers. And am beginning the process of building up my gut immunity and addressing the overgrowth in my small intestine. I’m so happy I took this leap of faith and contacted Angela. The worst is behind me. Now I’m moving forward towards better gut health. Thanks so much Angela!

Kim Brady, Sayulita Mexico

Working with Angela on a plan specific to me made it so much easier and more manageable to bring my body back into balance and clear up my candida. Her approach is science based. I highly recommend her. 

Todd Parks, Virginia 

I’ve struggled with digestive problems for 6 years, and have been to 4 Gastroenterologists.  The first “prescription” was to get a colonoscopy (which I did), and Miralax and Metamucil was a common theme that followed.  The last one prescribed Linzess which made me feel awful, and said that probiotics have little value.  That’s when I knew I needed to find a better way.  

I found Angela among the absolutely overwhelming amount of information out there on gut issues — IBS, dysbiosis, leaky gut, candida, SIBO, etc.  I knew a lot of “stuff” but I had no idea how to put the pieces together.  Angela has proven to me that she knows what she’s doing — first by ordering specific tests to identify the root cause of the problem (tests the GIs never did), and then by putting me on a diet and supplement protocol to attack the problem.  

Not only does she patiently listen to your “story,” but she is incredibly responsive to any questions you may have.  She is a real pleasure to work with.  I hope to write back in a few months with an update that I’m symptom free after all these years!

Dave Giesbrecht, Canada

Angela is quick to respond when I message her and easy to talk to on the phone. The new diet she has me on has been helping a lot. I have found that my stomach has been doing a lot better. I am looking forward to starting the  herbs. 

Stacy Clark, New Jersey

I have been working with a master in gut issues, Angela Privin. I had a GI Map of my gut health and I have h pylori and 3 different parasites. This explains a lot of the issues I have been having.
 
Angela has opened my eyes to importance of testing to save time and possibly money in restoring your gut health. As per protocol, I will start supplements to cure h pylori first, then attack my parasites.
 

Tui A. , Israel

I am deeply grateful I found Angela. I had been experiencing digestive pain and distress ever since I had gone through Typhoid 12 years ago. I had done conventional testing that showed no problems. Then I saw a natropath, a health coach and a Chinese medicine practitioner which had helped marginally. I had been experimenting with paleo, candida diets, aip, liver cleanses. These would help for a few days then I would be back in the same place. 
 
When I reached out to Angela I was in a moment of despair. There was so much pain in my stomach. I cried in frustration as I realized the pain was fairly constant. Pain before I ate, after I ate, and sometimes long after I ate. 
 
When I reached out to Angela, she was so supportive and encouraging. She said what I had been wanting to tell myself, that 12 years of pain is too long. The testing she recommended was so comprehensive I could finally see a reason for all of my symptoms. 
 
I am finishing up my protocols now, and more often than not, I have a sense of calm in my belly. Most of the pain and symptoms are gone. 
 
I feel really blessed that I found Angela to work with, her calm reassuring support has helped me on this healing journey. Her expertise and personal experience allowed me to really trust her.
 
As an international client, I thought it would not be possible to work together, but now that I’ve seen it can work, I am recommending her to friends. 

Ekatarina B. , Wisconsin

I have been eating right and following the principles of Ayurveda, which helped me feel better but still something was wrong. I knew there was a piece missing. I was trying to figure out what tests I should take when I found Angela on Instagram and liked her approach. I had never heard of the GI Map before but this test has been so helpful. Now I know what is going and I know I can fix it. I am so happy because I had been looking for answers for so long. 

Ruxandra N. , Texas

I started struggling with interstitial cystitis and migraines a year ago after two rounds of antibiotics for UTI infections.  I had pain almost daily for nine months until I started working on my digestive issues with Angela.  The first thing we addressed was h pylori and as soon as it was gone my interstitial cystitis and migraines disappeared!  

Janiece Johnson, Los Angeles, CA

Going to doctors/IBS specialists for the last 3.5 years has been stressful. I’ve been full of doubt that I can get good help. While working with Angela I’ve felt a shift in my recovery.
 
I took lots of  over the counter drugs, then moved to natural herbs, and changed my diet countless times, and have ended up where I first started.  I had no answers and more questions. With Angela I have so much support.
 
I have learned about the different causes of IBS with the help of testing. (with the help of testing which she helps interprets wonderfully). She answers my questions and can relate to my experience because she has been there.
 
This is the first time I am feeling and consistently better. My body is finally healing. With Angela’s encouragement, and my own dedication to my diet, taking herbs, and staying disciplined, things are getting better for me. I am getting healed in ways that I haven’t before because I was not tackling the underlying issue at hand on my own. 

Natasha G. , Texas

When sudden illness occurs, it’s a gift when someone supports us back to health. Through much prayer and searching, I found Angela, who shares a wealth of information on how to regain health through proper diet, supplementation, rest, daily routines and much more. Angela worked with me one-on-one to understand what health concerns I was struggling  with, what testing was needed to identify problem areas, and provided me easy-to-follow protocols. Her recommendations were easy to implement.  Thank you Angela for your research and expertise, and helping me to feel my best!

Jan R. , San Francisco, CA

My body is working again! I’m so happy. It’s because of Angela that I found out that I had SIBO and I am finding relief! I’m feeling so much gratitude. Working with Angela was worth the risk and paid off beautifully.

Tyra Porinchak,  Long Island, NY

If you’re suffering with digestive issues, but are on the fence about working with a health coach, take the leap.
 
Without getting to the root causes of the chronic pain, bloating, acid reflux, gas, constipation / diarrhea etc … the symptoms will persist and no amount of doctors visits, probiotics, fiber capsules, or antidepressants will turn it around.
 
I was overwhelmed, confused and anxious trying to process all the conflicting information. I fell into the trap of self diagnosis and playing my own doctor. I wasted money, time, energy and my hopelessness grew. 
When I found Angela’s blog, I felt reassured. Her calm, patient and positive approach and personal experience with IBS made me feel less alone, and more hopeful. 
 
At first I was afraid to schedule a consultation. Other holistic health practitioners, including someone I was still working with, let me down. I didn’t want that to happen again. 
 
But a little over a month later, I’ve learned more about gut health, and the root cause of IBS symptoms. Things like h. Pylori, parasites, and SIBO disrupt bacterial balance and create the right environment for Candida, leaky gut, food sensitivities and chronic inflammation.  Testing showed I had Candida overgrowth and h. Pylori. In order of importance, Angela put together a protocol for me to follow to tackle h.pylori first. And In less than 5 weeks I have finally cleared my h. Pylori infection! I am beyond excited to finally be making progress. 
 
Thanks to Angela’s “test don’t guess” approach, my endless Googling of symptoms, and subsequent panic attacks, are over – and I’m getting answers and validation, as well as symptom relief!
 
Angela’s blog may be called “Do It Yourself Health,” but you won’t be on you own. She’s always an email away to help. 

Bret Weaver, Iowa

As a 26 year old male from Iowa, I was definitely leery at first to book a consultation with some random person I had found online. I had already tried so many things and I was scared this would be just another thing I spent money on with no success (adding to the bin of unused supplements that failed to improve my condition).
 
However, Angela wasn’t really a random person. I had been reading her blog for months and had incorporated much of her advice into my life. Everything I tried from her site (although not easy at first) had greatly improved my condition and outlook. With this in mind, I knew she was legit.
 
After a 2-month long unsuccessful attempt to diagnose and heal myself (from supposed Hydrogen Sulfide SIBO), I realized there is a lot more going on in the GI tract that I am aware of- I waved the white flag and decided to value myself enough to take the chance and accept help into my life. After the first consultation,
 
I took the GI-MAP test. At first I was nervous that this would show negative for everything (like all the other tests the doctors had given me), but I had a good feeling about it that proved to be true. The GI-Map results came back showed everything from very serious parasites down to low gut flora count. Angela and her colleague had tailored a protocol to work for me.
 
Angela, although being naturalistic health coach, had recommended sharing these results with a doctor to get a pharmaceutical anti-parasitic due to the severity of the parasites. It impressed me that Angela set aside her own ideals/beliefs about natural remedies to give me the best chance of healing. All I can say is that Angela knows her stuff and will stick with you to make sure you are better. A couple weeks after my initial treatments of anti-parasitics and I can say that I am trending in the right direction. I still have a long ways to go and some other minor infections to take care of, but for the first time in over a year I am on the recovering path forward with every day being a little better than the day before it.

Ibrahim S. M.D., Chicago, IL

Angela has been a wonderful coach and healer for us.  We had just moved to a new house and a new area which was a very stressful experience and my wife began having new GI complaints that were severe and unrelenting.  Aside from severe stomach pains, she would have early satiety–feeling full after eating only 1 or 2 bites of her meal.  Her caloric intake plummeted as did her weight.  As a Doctor, I suspected she had Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) so we made an appointment with the local Gastroenterologist.  Some blood work was done which confirmed that she had H. pylori infection and was recommended to start antibiotics and to schedule upper and lower GI endoscopy.  This was all a bit too much since my wife always preferred a natural and holistic approach to healing. Contacting Angela was the best decision we made to regain a normal healthy GI system. 
 
Angela consulted over Skype with us and after getting the history, she asked us to complete some tests.  Then she started my wife on a special herbal Tea which cured the H. pylori infection over a course of about 2 months.  After that, we attacked the sleep and stress issues with various herbal remedies, probiotics and relaxation techniques.  I’m happy to say that over the course of about 12 to 18 months, she had cured herself of the H. pylori infection, resumed almost normal size meals and regained all her lost weight.  She is a much happier person and doesn’t let stress get to her. Quality of life has definitely improved by leaps and bounds over these past 2 years.  Angela is definitely a very knowledgeable and supportive coach.  In fact, just recently I recommended another family member to use her services.  She gets A+ rating in our book for excellence in Alternative Medicine and Healing.  Thank you Angela!    

 

 

Mark A., New York, age 63

I started working with Angela about 4 months ago. After our consult I had the GI screen with H Pylori. We found an imbalance with high levels of the E Coli and C freundi bacteriaand a (parasitic) level of Blastocysitis that were high and possible contributors to my IBS condition.  This was after years of trying all kinds of elimination diets and numerous FMT treatments.

She helped me choose a regimen of supplements and plant based substances that gradually brought my system into a better place, and improved or eliminated many of the symptoms. I was feeling much better and looking forward to continued improvement, when I underwent surgery for a hernia. 

Working with Angela has helped me find another option through the Viome testing  procedure, which is a way of finding out how my body is processing food. This opens a new door for me that I wasn’t aware of, a way to know what foods to eat, and which ones may be causing problems.

Throughout this period, Angela has proved to be super knowledgeable and knows more about this condition than any doctor that I have worked with. She has a thorough understanding of gut health and illness, and brings a special expertise in dealing with this condition that could only come from someone who’s been there. The great thing in working with her is having some way of using concrete scientific results from the tests to tackle specific issues, instead of guessing what might be going on. I only wish I had her on my team years ago when this started.

Shannon Turgeon Brooklyn, NY

“I just wanted to let you know that the plan you’ve put together for me is already showing positive results. I feel great, and wanted to send over a thanks.”

Jen Pradziad, Pennsylvania

I was officially diagnosed with SIBO by my GI doctor. My symptoms (bloating, exhaustion, headaches) were chronic.  My GI doctor prescribed Xifaxan and no direction on diet or lifestyle.  That protocol failed. I followed up with three additional protocols that did not work.

Angela’s input and knowledge was a breath of fresh air, particularly in comparison to the multiple GI doctors who appeared to be guessing on how to treat SIBO.  I chose the plan to meet with Angela every two weeks for a three month period, and it was well worth the money and time investment.   Angela clearly outlined a three-prong approach to my plan (supplements, diet, and lifestyle/stress reduction), and she stepped me through how to get the dosages right for my body, how to adjust my diet to starve the bacteria & to get back to my optimal weight, and how to start introducing stress-reduction techniques that I so desperately needed.   The protocols I followed in 2017 were misguided for my body and lacked the “complete picture” that Angela was able to bring together for me.   I also greatly appreciated the encouragement Angela gave (for example, she helped me realize that I should celebrate small successes and realize  that this is a journey vs. feeling like there is a “magic pill” that will cure everything overnight). My overall mood and health are better than they have been in years.

Craig C., California

If you’re like me (all of sudden digestive problems like diarrhea have struck) you’ve searched the internet for advice and asked your family doctor. After testing my doctor said nothing was wrong with me and to try probiotics. I had a stack of IBS/SIBO books and diet plans and each one is different. I still had regular diarrhea, which was getting worse and I was totally confused. Because my Dr’s prescription meds scared me… I decided to try a digestive coach?

Angela had me fill out a questionnaire, we had a call and she was talked about different options and suggested a test. I took the test and we reviewed the results together. Angela suggested a course of action which included a few supplements. In two weeks the diarrhea stopped, after a month I was feeling great again.

I highly recommend Angela. She knows how to help you DIY!!!

Selina Bronstein, Chicago, Illinois

Previous to coming across DIY Health, I had been suffering with SIBO for 3 years with no answers from medical professionals  and starting to lose hope.

Contacting Angela was the best decision I’ve made in the 3 years of suffering. Angela advised me to take a SIBO breath test, which I tested positive for.  Finally an answer to why I was feeling so sick!.  I changed my diet based on Angela’s suggestions

I can now say that I am SIBO free and finally getting my life back!

Jessie Liskey, Chula Vista, California

“Angela showed up in my life at the perfect time. After an Internet search I found her website and my intuition told me to contact her. She is so easy to talk to and helpful. I can still contact her with questions and she responds almost immediately! Thank you Angela.”

Tine Elsborg, Denmark

“Thanks again for all your help, the diet and supplements are really doing me good.”

Kathleen D. from Saskatoon, Canada

Angela has worked with me for a few months on my IBS symptoms. The initial recommendations she made reduced my symptoms within a few weeks. I’m now following a herbal protocol she suggested based on the results of the tests she recommended.

Jane Alaimo San Anselmo, CA

“I worked with Angela for several months and I’m so glad I found her! She is sharp, committed, knowledgeable and a joy to work with. Not only did she make a big difference for me with my diet and digestive issues, but she also suggested simple lifestyle changes that i would never have considered.
