Today Debbie talks shop with another FDN Practitioner and mentor, Ryan Monahan.
Ryan Monahan is a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P), clinical advisor for the medical director program at FDN, and certified Autoimmune Protocol Coach with a passion for uncovering hidden stressors that contribute to thyroid disease. Ryan spent over 10 years visiting more than 40 health professionals to find answers to his chronic health complaints until being diagnosed with Hashimoto’s in 2012. Since then, his mission has been to change the dialogue about chronic disease towards a holistic, functional approach.
With the help of cutting edge functional lab work, Ryan helps his clients to identify the true root causes of their primary health challenges so that they can stop wasting time and resources, and start living their best life.
Typically, his clients are those who have struggled with finding relief from their autoimmune symptoms. Oftentimes, they feel that they’ve “tried everything”, and that traditional medicine hasn’t served them. In his experience, there is a better way.
What is your passion, purpose and mission. I spent over 10 years visiting more than 40 health professionals to find answers to my chronic health complaints until being diagnosed with Hashimoto’s in 2012. Since then, my mission has been to change the dialogue about chronic disease towards a holistic, functional approach while helping others restore their health to normal function. During those 10 years, unbeknownst to me, I was living in an extremely house in north Georgia, and was actually diagnosed with Hashimoto’s while living in that house. I’m convinced that mold played a big role in tipping the scales of Metabolic Chaos towards developing an autoimmune condition! My mission is ultimately to become the person that I wish I had helping ME when I was at rock bottom with chronic illness. We talk about about the links between Hashimoto’s and mold illness – Part one of two episodes!
