Case Study #1: Betty

​

Background:
Before starting her nutritional treatment plan with EarthSuit Nutrition, Betty had been taking Methotrexate for seven years. Severe inflammation caused by arthritis prevented her from bending her fingers. After four weeks of treatment, Betty's pain subsided and mobility returned to her hands. As a result, her doctor discontinued the Methotrexate.

Nutritional treatment plan:
Betty began her nutrition program in February 2010. Her first treatment cycle focused on reducing inflammation and fat loss. At the end of this cycle, Betty had lost 40 pounds.

Betty's second three-month treatment cycle focused on further fat loss, during which time she lost 30 more pounds and gained full motion of her hands. Betty is now pain-free.

Medication before treatment:
02/01/10 -- Methotrexate -- 2.5mg/day

Medication after treatment:
