Growing up in a relatively healthy household, Laurie never paid much attention to her diet—until college, when indulgent eating habits and a lack of physical activity led to a dramatic weight gain.
In a desperate attempt to shed the pounds, Laurie turned to extreme dieting, which unfortunately set off a cascade of gut issues, including severe bloating and constipation.

Laurie recounts her journey towards healing through dietary changes and holistic strategies, offering valuable insights for anyone struggling with similar issues.
