In this episode, Dawne & Larry are joined by a very special guest, Dawne's oldest daughter Lexi Jacoby. Lexi has had quite the health journey over the past few years. It started with an array of symptoms - sudden unexplained weight gain, problems with her monthly cycle, horrible acne, constantly bloated and sick after everything she ate, sleep issues, constant fatigue, racing heart and much more.

Her first step was going to her primary care physician to get bloodwork done and discuss the issues to find out what was going on. She had to beg for the bloodwork despite her symptoms, but she finally got it done.

The bloodwork revealed elevated levels in her liver functions to which her doctor suggested that she should lay off alcohol and decrease Tylenol, neither of which she consumed often.

Lexi ultimately felt let down by her doctor so she took matters into her own hands and sought out a holistic physician. One who would get to the root cause of the issues - not try to put a bandaid on it. Lexi knew in her heart there was something wrong and thank goodness she was an advocate for her own health because there was a lot wrong....which she shares in great detail on this episode today.

Lexi was on a mission to heal from the inside out and has transformed her health through a lifestyle change which incorporates the food she eats, the products she uses, her exercise regimen, natural calming remedies, and everyday self care. Her mission is to now help others who have had or are currently having these same issues.
