She will do everything to help you achieve optimal health and hold your hand when you fall off the horse — and you will, but that’s okay! I struggled for years with weight issues and emotional eating and feeling a lot of shame about it. Dr. Howerton helped me heal my gut issues and insulin problems that were two of the major reasons I was going nuts with sugar. This is the first time in my life that I feel good about myself and feel like my bad eating habits don’t control me.” NT “I was sick and tired of being sick and tired when it was recommended to me to try functional medicine. Traditional doctors had failed to find the source of my decade-long illnesses, exhaustion and inflammation. Dr. Kerri Howerton looked for the causes of my sickness instead of just the symptoms. It was amazing the drastic changes that came from changing my diet, adding some exercise and some supplements. I have had more energy than I have had in years. I am so grateful to Dr. Howerton for these positive changes in my health!” MO ”I have a VERY demanding job so I originally saw Dr. Howerton because I felt like I was losing my edge and needed a tune up. I had brain fog and noticed that I just felt sluggish. I also had unrelated skin issues, which I later found out were due to digestive problems that I’ve had over the past 5 years. Now the brain fog is better, sleep is better, digestion is better. The bumpy red skin on my arms is GONE, and I feel my confidence coming back! The program has not only helped me get back in the shape I used to be in but I’ve seen improvement in all aspects of my life. ” ##### FAQ ## Still on the Fence? Maybe this will help!
