This next story focuses on one man's journey to living a healthier life. Gary Wilson, client of Total Nutrition and Therapeutics in the Villages, explains how his health was failing before he took charge and went to see Lori Essery.
I was anemic.
My blood was so bad and I was anemic. So bad that the weakness prevented me from doing a lot of things. I couldn't walk out and get the newspaper and come back. That's how weak I was. I was sleeping 14, 16 hours a day. I couldn't even get out of bed. I went to five different doctors in New Jersey, seven different doctors here. Nobody could solve the problem. And my primary physician told me a while back that I should go see a nutritionist. And I just, yeah, said, yeah, okay. And then this time he forced me to go see. He made the arrangements and I went and saw Laurie and it's unbelievable. I never would have believed this if it didn't happen to me.
I didn't think that diet would help.
Anything, but it's obvious that I was 100% wrong. I just can't.
You have to experience it to see how well it worked out. Within two weeks, I was getting a lot of energy. Within three weeks, I was lifting weights and walking five miles a day when.
I couldn't walk out to get the newspaper.
Now I'm walking five miles a day, all because of a diet.
I still find it so hard to.
Believe, but obviously I'm proof. My primary physician said I was on my way out, I was going to be dying soon.
And that's why he forced me to go to the nutritionist. And that saved my life.
I was up to one point, 235 pounds. Now I'm down to 211, and that's with gaining 20 pounds of muscle. I've been on medications for about 15 years because I'm a diabetic and because of cholesterol, I'm off all my medications. I'm no longer a diabetic. I don't have AFIB anymore. I don't have any heart problems. I just can't believe this. I used to have to use a puffer to breathe. I don't use anything anymore. The only thing I take now is protein shakes and a couple vitamins. I'm off all my medications. First time in 15 years. They've saved my life. Both of them have saved my life. My primary physician and Lori, they have saved my life, period. You can't ask for anything better than that.
