It’s great to read a story like that of Jamie and her daughter, and their desire now, to share this information with others, is so admirable. -Dr. Perlmutter
Where do I begin? My daughter is a patient of Dr. Perlmutter’s. About one year ago, when my daughter was 17, she started having involuntary muscle movements on her right side of her body. They progressed from just the fingers moving to the entire right side, including arm, shoulder, leg, foot, and then it started affecting her speech. She could barely hold a dinner fork anymore and writing at school had become nearly impossible. I am not sure how to put into words how severe the situation was other than I really thought she was headed for a wheelchair if it would have continued progressing. Without a long-winded explanation, I can tell you that the western medical protocol did not have much to offer her.
Fortunately, we are in the same town as Dr. Perlmutter and within one consultation, a very thorough health history and some lab work we found the culprit: GLUTEN! She is a perfect example of the information spelled out in Dr. Perlmutter’s book. Today, almost one year later, she is movement free, and a very successful college freshman with a desire to get involved in medicine, following in Dr. Perlmutter’s footsteps, and using holistic means as her catalyst to heal. This experience has had such an impact on our lives and was truly a miracle. I have embarked on a new journey as well, studying to become a Holistic Health Coach, to educate as many people as I can about this very important topic!
This information has forever changed our lives!
