Flipping Brain Health Fundamentals for a Healthy Brain Over 50 | #518

My Guest: 

Teri Jaklin is a licensed naturopathic doctor and certified functional medicine practitioner in private practice for over 20 years. Prior to becoming an ND, she spent 10+ years in the frantic world of corporate public relations where she learned first-hand what 70 career hours per week can do to you and your health. On top of that, she has lived for the last 36 years with her own diagnosis of multiple sclerosis. Now, Teri is committed to bringing the new brain science together with natural medicine and unprecedented support to change the way her patients experience MS and live an amazing life beyond the diagnosis.

Teri is an enthusiastic student of the healing power of nature, and a person’s ability to access their own health potential and shares this regularly in her lectures and public speaking. Over the last 2 years, Teri has moved her practice online and developed a unique program called Transform MS to help people with MS stop their symptoms and feel in control again.
