Summary
Beech 53860 has had fatigue, food sensitivities and gut issues for years, with normal labs, and says drastic lifestyle changes brought little improvement. Two years ago she paid $37 for Dr. Pompa's programme and bought a product that did not work because it was not tailored to her sensitivities. She began daily lymphatic drainage after learning about it online and credits it with more sustained energy and faster recovery.
