And I’m so glad you stopped by! I’m the creator behind Live Well With Jessi. After being diagnosed with multiple chronic illnesses and food allergies, I had to do a complete overhaul of my previous nutrition and lifestyle practices. I started this blog as a way to share my favorite gluten and dairy-free recipes and wellness tips. My hope is that by sharing my own experiences, you will feel less alone in your own healing journey.

I originally started searching for answers to my chronic health symptoms the same way most of us do, by visiting a primary doctor followed by testing with multiple western medicine specialists. While I believe there is a time and a place for these specialists, the majority of them were unable to properly diagnose what was going on in my body. After years of searching, I started to learn more about holistic health practices and functional medicine. This is when I decided to go with an alternative route to healing. Since working with functional and integrative practitioners, I was able to discover the root causes and reasons behind many of my strange health issues: Lyme Disease, Mold Illness, MCAS, POTS, Hypothyroidism, Nutrient Deficiencies, and Food Allergies, to name a few.
