Follow-up questions they answered
- Is Reimagined Health worth the cost compared to IVF?
- Hannah Futrell noted that while the program was expensive, it was not as costly as IVF. She concluded it was 'so worth it' because it addressed her blood work, home products, and pantry to improve her overall health. — Hannah Futrell
- Can functional medicine help with unexplained infertility?

- Does Reimagined Health involve the partner in the process?

- Will functional medicine work if traditional thyroid medication failed?
- Laura Moreno found that while traditional thyroid medication and standard endocrinology provided no relief for her Hashimoto's, Dr. Ian's approach of testing different blood markers and addressing gut health led to progress. — Laura Moreno
- How does Dr. Autoimmune identify undiagnosed conditions?
- Laura noted that Dr. Ian listens closely to symptoms and looks for underlying triggers like leaky gut; he was able to diagnose her with pernicious anemia, a condition her previous doctors had completely missed. — Laura Moreno

- Laura felt a difference 'right away' after starting the recommended elimination diet, though she noted that significant milestones like weight loss took several months of consistency. — Laura Moreno
