Gritwell

I had huge red flags going off pertaining to my health issues, massive. My “doctor” told me I was “fine” and he wasn’t concerned. Like, I was literally covered in rashes and my A1C was 1 point off diabetes and I had tons of symptoms. I was throwing up everything I ate, lots of bad stuff was going on. GritWell didn’t dismiss me or tell me I was fine when I obviously was not. Life changing and a fraction of the cost of a traditional functional medicine clinic. Over the course of a few months Major symptoms began to clear up about 6 months later I could see clear signs my body was healing. I am still on my healing journey but doing great. Exercising again, and feeling tons better and like a normal human again.

My experience with Gritwell was absolutely everything I could have asked for and more. From the very first time I spoke to the team, to when I got connected with Wendy and later continued my journey with her, I felt supported, understood, validated, and cared for. The team is so attentive and I felt really understood from start to finish. Dealing with gut issues is never easy because it can be hard to explain symptoms and reasonings, but the team immediately got me taking the right tests and Wendy was an incredible guide and support through this whole process. She got me on the right program and my gut issues immediately started subsiding, and she even helped me with some pre-pregnancy support that I didn’t know I needed. I can now say, as I sit here pregnant and with barely any gut flare ups, that the plan she put me on was 100% affective and really transformed my life. Thank you to Wendy and the rest of the Gritwell team for listening and supporting me on this journey. I owe you so much!!

I had a wonderful experience with Gritwell! I turned to them after spending thousands of dollars getting nowhere with doctors and nutritionists. I was at a place where I could barely eat any food without bad reactions, was crippled with joint pain and unsure how to make forward movement. I wanted clarity, answers and a plan. I ended up getting paired with a wonderful Gritwell provider who spent the time getting to know me, deep dived into testing and helped walk me through months of getting back on track. I am now in an incredibly better place - eating with more freedom, free of pain, and aware of how to support myself as I continue the healing process. Forever grateful!

Wanting to take control of my own health without taking a lot of drugs I did a lot of of research and decided to use Gritwell health. It took over an hour to complete the initial paperwork. After that I met with my Health specialist, Barbara for 30 minutes every other week. I learned so much with Barbara. Understanding how you need food to fuel your body, and natural approaches to take care of yourself was the best way for me. I have lost weight. I have more energy. I feel stronger. I am extremely happy with Barbara and.Gritwell Health.

Gritwell truly transformed my life. After nearly two years of battling fatigue and digestive issues, Wendy finally made me feel sane and even more convinced that my symptoms weren’t just ‘normal’. Through comprehensive testing, we pinpointed the root cause of the problem, and after several months of diet and lifestyle changes, supported by tailored supplements, I can confidently say that I am the fittest and most energised I’ve ever been. While a few pills may seem like a quick fix, it’s crucial to be prepared to invest time and effort in making long-term changes (if necessary) if you really want to get better. Trust me, if you’re fed up of doctors dismissing your concerns and assuring you that your blood work is all within normal limits, schedule an appointment with Gritwell to regain control of your health. I can’t thank Chelsea and Wendy enough for their support, and I will continue to work with the Gritwell team to stay on top of my health and continue feeling great!

I unfortunately did not have great success with Gritwell and wanted to share my experience. I sought out Gritwell to help me address the root cause of my acne. They initially told me that I could do a program consisting of testing and 2-3 sessions with a coach and/or an MD. However, after purchasing the test, they told me I had to signup for a 12 session program if I wanted to move forward - which felt deceptive on their part. But because I felt invested after doing the testing, I decided to move forward and we ultimately compromised on 6 sessions. For 6 months I implemented every recommendation, supplement, diet, etc. that was given to me. Not only did my acne not improve, but it actually got worse over the course of the program. I was also never given the opportunity to meet with an MD as I was told in the beginning. At my 5th session, the Gritwell coach mistakenly thought I had purchased 12 sessions, so she was surprised by the fact that I only had one left and said that the only way my acne would improve would be to extend the program. I was disappointed that she made it seem like all the effort and money spent up to that point was wasted and that there was no path to improvement outside of purchasing more supplements through Gritwell. I am unfortunately now back at square one, several thousand dollars and almost a year later, with the exact same health concerns that I started with.

I honestly can’t thank Gritwell enough for everything they’ve done for me. I was getting headaches every single day, my energy was at rock bottom, and I constantly felt like I was living in a fog. On top of that, I was stuck when it came to losing weight and was relying on multiple medications, including anxiety medicine, just to get through each day. Since starting with Gritwell, everything has changed. I no longer get daily headaches, I’ve finally been able to lose weight again, and I’m completely off all my medications. My energy is so much higher, my brain fog has lifted, and I can actually focus and feel like myself again. It’s honestly life-changing. I also want to give a special shoutout to Catherine. She has done an amazing job guiding me through this whole process. She really listened, took the time to understand what I was going through, and made me feel supported the entire way. Catherine’s knowledge and care have been such a huge part of my progress, and I’m so grateful for her. If you’re struggling with your health and feel like you’ve tried everything, I highly recommend Gritwell. They’ve truly helped me take back control of my health and my life.

Gritwell was able to do something that my PCP and many others were not able to do. They were able to help me understand why I was having constant nausea, diarrhea, extreme fatigue....they drew blood, had me send in a stool sample and did a cortisol test. From those in depth tests, my assigned provider (Wendy) was able to guide me in the steps I needed to take to start feeling better. It does take time, but I had been suffering for over 4 years. They really did improve my quality of life. At the beginning you get to speak with the founder of the company, who is very sweet and compassionate and she explains everything up front so there are no surprises. The program is on the expensive side, but it does include all testing and supplements. I should have continued with treatment but for unforseen financial reasons I could not (husband got laid off of work). I would highly recommend this company as they know how to get down to the root causes of "why" your body is doing what it is doing, and help you regain control of your life, to be able to enjoy life again. I am forever grateful to Gritwell and my provider Wendy.

I am so glad I found Gritwell. I had another functional medicine doctor guiding me before this and they are definitely not all created equal. I tried changing my diet and lifestyle and all the supplements I thought I should be taking before trying Gritwell and it hardly moved the needle. I was exhausted all the time and had a ton of auto immune symptoms and other symptoms that I didn’t even realise were not a normal part of getting older. The doctors and health coaches here are so knowledgeable and helpful. It truly changed my health around by finding the root cause. I don’t know what I would have done if I hadn’t signed up to this program. I reversed almost all my autoimmune symptoms in 8 months. I feel like a new person. It’s not an easy journey and takes commitment, sometimes you feel worse before you feel better but I’m so glad i persevered and trusted their advice. If you’re thinking about doing it then don’t hesitate because you have nothing to lose health wise and everything to gain. Thank you Chelsea and team ❤️🥰

I cannot express how incredibly disappointed I am with my experience at Gritwell. I paid $4,000 for a full package, which I’m still paying off, only to find out there were a very limited number of doctor and health coach visits. I wasn’t made aware of this upfront, which was a huge red flag. The health coach, who seemed experienced, kept scheduling calls, even though I was seeing zero improvements and sometimes had nothing to discuss. By the end of just three months, I had used up all my calls, leaving me with no further support while still paying for the program. The worst part is that their recommendations actually made my health worse. Despite telling the health coach multiple times that the supplements weren’t working for me, she insisted on increasing the dosage, simply because they worked for her. We have totally different body types, and instead of listening to my concerns, she just pushed more supplements, even though I told her I had stomach ulcers. This led to a crisis in my stomach, which could have been avoided. To top it off, I was bloated and uncomfortable from day one, and after completing the program, I was even more swollen, with no improvement in my lymphatic drainage or overall health. The parasite cleanse they put me on completely disrupted my gut, giving me a terrible yeast infection. I’m beyond frustrated and feel like I wasted my money and trust on this program. I would not recommend Gritwell to anyone. Additionally, in less than a month of being with Gritwell—maybe even less than two weeks—I was approached by someone from their team via email, offering me Amazon gift card vouchers in exchange for a positive review. This raises serious questions about the authenticity of their good reviews, and I strongly suggest people not trust them, as it seems they’re essentially buying positive feedback.
