| I'm certainly no expert, but as someone who suffered from anemia my whole life, without knowing why until a year ago, I will gladly share my experience. I was finally diagnosed with celiac disease last february when I learned that 8 months into my pregnancy my iron was so low they were worried I might need a transfusion. Fortunately, I didn't, but it still has been a tough battle to regain my strength. I think that taking the gluten out of my diet was a good first step, but it wasn't the only thing. I really didn't begin to notice a difference until I went on the LLW last summer. At the time I started on the LLW I was desperate. Between the low iron levels and the hormones after having a baby, I had lost so much hair and nothing was growing back in. I was embarrassed to leave the house. I was dealing with a lot of depression, joint pain and just over all tired all the time. I felt a lot older than my 37 years, and I really wanted something that would give me my life back. I literally only made it through the day by consuming 100+ ounces of caffeinated soda every single day. That is a staggering amount, when I look back! I was introduced to DoTerra in July and immediately joined. I was mostly interested in it for helping my kids, but gradually I began to see how the products could help me. I started on the LLW in August and even though I'm not perfectly consistent, I do take them pretty often. In September, I completely, cold turkey went off caffeine and it was about 4 miserable days, but so worth it! I have continued to use the oils and to change my diet. I am almost completely on a whole foods diet, eating everything fresh and when possible-raw. I am a whole new person. My hair came back in thicker than ever, my nails are long and strong (which I haven't experienced in years) I have energy and look forward to each day. My depression, for the most part is gone and a month after starting on the LLW, I was able to go completely off the anti-deppressant my OBGYN put me on after the birth of my son. Sorry for the novel, but I guess, I could sum it up to first, try to find out what might be causing the anemia. And second, use the LLW and modify the diet. I haven't had my levels retested, but I feel 110% better! So, something must be going right! Good luck!
