Susanna's Story
For years, I struggled with a range of physical and mental health issues that no doctor could not fully explain. Instead of addressing the root cause, they simply prescribed medications to manage the symptoms.
It was a frustrating and painful journey—nerve problems, brain fog, chronic pain, weakness, exhaustion, and stiffness that could last for hours, sometimes leaving me bedridden all day. Doctors brushed it off as arthritis and fibromyalgia. I was often told I was just stressed, that I needed a babysitter, help around the house, and rest. I felt like I was going to lose my mind because there were no answers.
Finally, eight years later, I was diagnosed with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, Sjogren’s, Raynaud’s, and Osteoarthritis. A few years later, I was also diagnosed with Leaky Gut. Following the medical protocol for Lupus and arthritis, I continued eating what I believed was a “healthy” diet—dairy, gluten, processed foods, and meals filled with hidden pesticides and chemicals.
My gut health was deteriorating, and as it worsened, so did my overall well-being. Every day was a struggle. I felt hopeless—until I decided to take my life back and not let these autoimmune diseases control my life. I woke up every day and started to truly take care of myself by reading every label, understanding where my food came from and how it was raised.
Through this journey, I found something even greater—Gratitude. I realized that despite my challenges, things could have been far worse. I could have received a terminal diagnosis or faced something even more debilitating. I discovered that simply by eating whole foods and green leafy vegetables, I had the power to change my health and my future.
That’s how Lucky Microgreens was born. These tiny greens are packed with flavor and nutrients, and they are so quick and easy to prepare. Thanks to this lifestyle change, I have transformed my health. Instead of relying on pills, I now nourish my body with the vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants it needs. Food is medicine!
