Simple Food Swaps That Support Healing from Chronic Illness

When I first started trying to heal my chronic illness naturally, I felt totally overwhelmed—especially when it came to food.

What should I eat?
What’s making things worse?
How do I even start?

If you’ve ever asked yourself those same questions, you’re not alone. I was tired, foggy, and desperate for relief, but the thought of overhauling my entire diet felt impossible.

That’s exactly why I created my Healing Food Swaps PDF—a simple, done-for-you guide with gentle food changes that can help ease inflammation, reduce flare-ups, and support your energy without stress or restriction. 💛

Inside, you’ll find:
✔️ Everyday swaps for pain-triggering ingredients
✔️ Gut-friendly alternatives for digestion + bloat
✔️ Anti-inflammatory options you can find anywhere
✔️ Real-food tips that don’t require a diet overhaul

These are the exact swaps I used when I was too tired to cook, too foggy to think, and just needed someone to say: “Start here.”
