She is especially concerned with children, as well as senior citizens, who are often are faced with specific challenges not often seen in the general population. She travels all over the country giving lectures and educating individuals and organizations on how to shop in a more holistic manner on a budget.

 

From a young age, Chalyce lived with stomach challenges, and as a teenager, a diagnosis given which was termed "cheerleader syndrome." There was not much known about gastroparesis 30 years ago. The doctor believed it was too much pressure from her parents and pushing her too hard, even though she was just a typical, active student by choice. Other conditions that plagued her body included IBS, fibromyalgia, uncontrolled gestational diabetes, hypoglycemia, Epstein-Barr, and autoimmune challenges. She was put on several medications over the course of her life until, in her early 20’s, a “country” doctor taught her how to start helping herself through diet, supplements and the importance of whole food nutrition. This is where her journey to heal herself, and help others, began.

STEPHANIE TORRES, Certified Health Coach, ThriveRx Consumer Advocate

Stephanie was officially diagnosed with gastroparesis in 2008 at the age of 28, following years of other health challenges. Luckily, in her early 20s, she had found a passion for nutrition, yoga, and meditation. Despite the many challenges she has faced over the years, Stephanie has continued to use these methods to help manage her illness. 

Certified as a health coach in 2012 through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, Stephanie currently works as a consumer advocate with ThriveRx, providing one-on-one support and education for those on home enteral and parenteral nutrition. Through her blog, Journey with Gastroparesis, she has shared experiences, insight, and tips for living with GP. She attends conferences and support groups across the country and has helped to raise awareness and funds for research through the annual Awareness Walk for Gastroparesis & Digestive Health. 

 

After noticing the difference essential oils made in her own life, she began working with Chalyce Macoskey and the non-profit Wisdom by Nature to help spread awareness about the use of essential oils and natural remedies for GP. Together they wrote The New Approach to Healing Gastroparesis and Digestive Challenges, to be released in May of 2017.

 

Stephanie lives with her husband and 2 dog-children in the Pacific Northwest where she enjoys spending time with loved ones, writing, reading, being outdoors, and experimenting with her favorite GP-friendly foods.
