Before I began working with Nour Zibdeh a little over a year ago, I was sleeping just a few hours a night propped up on pillows - because severe acid reflux made it too painful to lie flat. I had just been diagnosed with silent reflux aka LPR - laryngopharyngeal reflux which made my nose stuffy on one side and caused my asthma to flare up. I couldnt take any of the reflux medications my doctor prescribed because of serious side effects, so I was going through 1-2 bottles of Pepto Bismol each week. I had lost a lot of weight over a short period of time and weighed less than 100 pounds. I was also having daily panic attacks and my blood pressure was high, even though I had been taking blood pressure medication for about a year to lower it.
I was in pain and afraid, and didnt know which way to turn, when my sister recommended Nour to me, saying that Nour had helped her with her digestive issues. I was amazed at how quickly Nours program helped me. I took my last dose of Pepto Bismol within 5 days of starting the Phase 1 diet, and I havent had to take any acid reflux medication since then. I dont have panic attacks anymore. My blood pressure is in the normal range now, and my doctor approved discontinuing blood pressure medication. I sleep soundly for 7-8 hours every night. I am at a comfortable weight. My allergies and asthma are better than they have been in over 30 years, and I was able to discontinue using the prescription nasal spray I had been using since 1990. I never felt deprived eating the foods Nour recommended. It was really a relief to be eating more simply prepared and nourishing foods. My meals looked beautiful and tasted great!
Communicating with Nour was easy even during the pandemic. We met face-to-face via Zoom, and the online platform she uses made it easy to share information and track my progress. I was able to message her to ask questions between Zoom sessions and she was very responsive.
Nours Eat to Thrive Program supported my ongoing digestive health by introducing me to ways to reduce stress which can be an underlying cause of digestive issues. I learned helpful breathing techniques, visualization exercises, and even ear massage to stimulate the Vagus nerve to reduce stress!
