All about Allison:

In high school Allison was diagnosed with PCOS and suffered chronic, mysterious pain through college. After years of seeing medical specialists and a laundry list of drugs, Allison was desperate for relief and turned to her Aunt Marilee in the Texas Hill Country. After two months at Marilee’s, eating only real food, using safe products, and staying in a healthy home, her life was transformed. Allison was free of pain and got her life back. Eventually her ovarian cysts disappeared, and she was able to get pregnant naturally...three times! Most recently, Allison was diagnosed with chronic Lyme disease and has again used a healthy lifestyle (and a move to the country!) to reverse almost all symptoms. She is passionate about educating others on how to create a healthy home in order to experience true healing.
