[John Gilbert] We've been suffering from allergies for quite a while now. For me, my whole life, seasonal allergies.
I was self-medicating so over-the-counter, Sudafed, Zyrtec,
I would take until they weren’t working anymore and then I’d switch to something else. I just, I had a constant rotation.
And I mean the seasonal allergies, mainly sinuses and then, more asthma type response, too. A lot of food allergies too, I was inflamed right through here.
I was thinking I didn't want my kids to go through that, and we were planning on going and getting tested and doing the allergy shots. I was talking to somebody about allergies; she had recommended Trailhead Health and Dr. Wilson, so why not try it out.

I would be the test subject to try it first and then after seeing positive results started bringing the kids in. Now, the whole family’s coming and I think we're all seeing results. My allergies are definitely Better and I'm not taking any more over-the-counter medications or any prescribed allergy medications. I definitely feel a lot better, my sinuses are clear. It's just, it's a world of difference.
I enjoy an occasional beer, and when I would have a beer, you know, I would definitely feel inflamed in the gut, and now, you know, that doesn't happen. I can actually enjoy it and not have to, suffer from it after. I can tell now, with some of the foods that I’d eat I am definitely not reacting now the way that I was in the past. I was skeptic, definitely a skeptic in the beginning, and just, well that's why I was the test subject. I wanted to wait until I saw results and then get the rest of the family involved.
I know this guy, [referring to his son] when he would have sugar or anything sugary he definitely got really wound up, would misbehave on a frequent basis. I mean we cut way back on the sugar, but when he does get a treat now he doesn’t respond the way that he used to.
Q: That’s amazing! For someone watching this video and wondering whether this is a good fit for them or not, what would you say to them? What would your message be for them?
A: I would say try it. I used to dread mowing the yard but it’s something you have to do. I always, right after, I’d jump in the shower and clean up and just try to get all the allergens off me as best possible. Now I don’t mind mowing the yard, I’ll stay out and work in the yard after and it’s just, it’s a world of difference. It’s so much different.
Q: That’s great! Is there anything you'd like to say?
A: [Son] No, I wanted one question. Q: You wanted me to ask you a question? A: [Son] One question. Q: Okay, well, do you like coming to see Dr. Wilson? A: [Son] Kind of.
Q: Kind of? Usually kids are afraid of doctors. You're not afraid of Dr. Wilson? No not at all?
[Son shakes his head No]
