Opinion: ‘Medical nutrition’ helps keep my son, and many others, healthy. But insurance won’t cover it
My son is now in high school, but when he was in the second grade, I received a call that changed everything: “We think he had a stroke.”
He had developed a facial droop and couldn’t walk on his own. His teacher carried him to the nurse’s office with the entire class following. He was eventually diagnosed with metabolic strokes due to mitochondrial disease, a genetic disorder that prevents your cells from producing enough energy.
