My Story
Hi, my name is Kelci Smithmeyer! I’m a mom of 2 beautiful kids, 1 fur baby, 5 backyard ducks and I’m married to to the love of my life. I have a bachelors degree in Business Admin/Marketing, was a stay at home mom for many years and previously owned a cake decorating business. You may be thinking to yourself, “how does one go from owning a CAKE business to holistic nutrition?!” Good question! Keep reading to find out 🙂
For many years, I struggled with various health problems...pretty much my whole life. Health issues such as:
*Migraines *Hashimotos
*Daily headaches *Anxiety
*Severe IBS *Anemia
*Chronic fatigue *Vascular problems
*Rosacea *Heart palpitations
*Muscle and joint pain
I was a mess (too much sugar maybe?) and found myself living in a ball of fear. I spent years bouncing from doctor to doctor, specialist to specialist, and having every test known to man. No one could ever really tell me why my body was failing me, but instead offered medication after medication to help tame my symptoms. Nothing ever healed me and in fact, I just got worse.
Enough was enough and I began working with some really amazing holistic and naturopathic healers, and found the root cause of my issues stemmed from:
*Nutrient deficiencies
*Delayed food allergies ( I had never heard of those before)
*Gut infection
*Systemic candida infection (caused by overuse of antibiotics)
*Dental work (amalgam fillings)
*Hormonal imbalance
*Heavy metal toxicity
*and yes, even parasites
I finally learned my body was designed to heal, it just needed the right conditions. When I addressed my delayed food allergies, nutrients deficiencies, cleared the infections (with herbs and supplements), learned how and what to eat/drink, and removed the toxicities…my body did just that, it began to heal. I also learned how negative thought patterns and holding onto unforgiveness was part of my problem. When I turned these things over to God and learned how to forgive, let go of negative emotions and ask for healing, things really accelerated in my health. As of today, my favorite and most crucial daily practice is spending time in the word of God, followed by deep breath work/prayer/and meditation while listening to soaking music. Now, at the age of 41, I feel better than ever, and no longer fear illness, germs or disease.
I truly believe God knows the end from the beginning and the beginning from the End (the bible says this) and He knew the types of problems we would encounter in this world. That is why he created and placed everything we need to heal right here on this earth. Things like amazing herbs, plants, nutrients, vitamins, minerals, light and foods that nurture, cleanse, and heal our bodies.
Being a hands-on learner, I’m not shocked that the struggles and successes in my own health journey have led me to help others. In fact, I know that is the purpose of my life aside from raising my kids and being a loving and supportive wife to my husband. So, after years of using and seeing the benefits of natural medicine and holistic nutrition in my own life, as well as my family, I became a Holistic Nutrition Specialist and Back to Eden was born.
