info_outlineBea Calliet joins us from France. She was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease, called ankylosing spondylitis, in February 2007. After almost 11 years of taking a lot of strong painkillers she decided to try healing myself naturally.
One thing led to another, she went to a functional medicine doctor who told her she had to go “gluten and many other things” free. A little over a year on this diet and she quit taking biotherapy and about 9 months later she was off all medication!
But along the way, she also learnt that diet alone is not enough. Healing naturally is much more than just diet.
That’s why in January 2020, she started her blog “Go Healthy With Bea” where she shares both her autoimmune story and her gluten free recipes in order to help people on their own natural healing journey.
A year and a half after creating my blog, she decided to go one step further by becoming an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach, Certified Gluten free Practitioner and get a Certificate in plant-based patisserie at Le Cordon Bleu London in order to transform a side hustle into a whole career change.
