'It's not normal to have these symptoms everyday'
Shannon Quinn, from Coleraine but who now lives in Belfast, said in her 20s she suffered from hormonal imbalances, acne, fear, travel anxiety, digestive issues, sadness and more. The 29-year-old environmental health officer decided enough was enough and has transformed how she feels.
"I had loads of digestive issues, really painful stomach which was unexplained, reproductive issues and really bad anxiety in regards to flying. I absolutely loved travelling up to the age of 20 and then had a really bad experience. It manifested into a fear of flying for seven years. All those symptoms ranged over a good few years and led to a rollercoaster of emotions. Frustration, more anxiety, sadness, unconsciousness, things like that.
"I was reading loads of health books, listening to podcasts and doing online research and things and then started making small changes to my own life. I noticed a lot of really positive outcomes and changes there." "There were two things I found were influencing that... One was gluten... I went 3 or 4 weeks experimenting cutting it out and the difference I saw in my skin was absolutely [mad]."
"It's not looking at one area of your health. You have to combine it all and that's where the integrative health mindset and perspective comes into it.
